So I have to recreate a lot of intricate shapes. Although I have been doing some metalshaping through the years, this is really being thrown into deep waters! But I can be stubborn. Very stubborn, and luckily have the patience to do a panel again and again until I get it right.

I am also a toolaholic. But often resort to a BFH and a stump. It can at times be very effective in shaping as well as getting out frustrations. ;-)
Great.. An O.C.D. Toolaholic.. You'll fit right in!

Have no fear regarding the Alfa. I've been in over my head since day one, and have had to do everything twice, sometimes four or five times, just to undo the damage from the first attempts.
