In the Land of Enchantment (New Mexico)
Hello to All,
My history had me growing up in a metal fabrication shop, so, my father had me burning rod at age 8 or 9 to keep me occupied and out of his hair.
Thru many internet searches for sheet metal working tools, I kept being lead to this great site.
I have built a planishing hammer from materials accuired from our local scrap iron yard and an English wheel out of the fan hub from a KTA19 engine. The lowers are cut bearings, or re-shaped belt tensioner pulleys.
These tools have been put in use building custom cars and motorcycles.
I can see that there are great sheet metal artisans here and may I be able to learn from you.....
