Hi all, I stumbled upon this site as a link from another, thought it might be worthwhile to jump in.

As I near (forced) retirement, I've been looking for something to make a few bucks, occupy my time and not be completely useless. Many years ago before I got into the up and down part of aviation, I worked sheetmetal. A lot of things I did were fairings and oddball manufacture of parts and pieces that were no longer available. Did everything by hydraulic forming or by hand with a wheel to finish.

I haven't worked metal for 25 years or so, but I don't think it will take too long to get back in the swing of things. No shortage of bent airplanes here. I'd like to do restoration/reproduction type work.

I still have all my tools from years past and am planning to build my own wheel and power/planishing hammer.

This looks like a great site, and I hope I can make some useful contribution over time.

Now, if I can just find that dang hammer...............
