Just Gettin Started
 
Hello there AMS im new to the forums but have been doing some fabrication for awhile. i am only 18 but i have been welding for going on 3 years now with body work and foundry work along the way.

im looking to do quite abit of metal working and am into doing it all myself and making my own tools.
I really want to get into stump and shot bag work

i have some tools to start at the moment
basic hammers (working on getting more and dollies)
a stump
26 gallon compressor with air chisels and cut offs (looking for a rivet gun)
cheap mig welder that lays some good beads( looking to get eastwoods tig/plasma combo within the next year)
and my hands:D

any tips and tricks would be awesome expecially on a budget would be great!


past projects: 66 c-10 swb stepside
71 chevelle malibu converted to 70 ss
88 ford ranger (pile of junk that gets me to work:D)
