Greeting Fellow Metal Shapers. Ive been shaping professionally now for about two years. I greatly enjoy the challenges of metal shaping and the problem solving that it entails. Initially I was self taught, fortunately I had the privilege to work with some talented guys. I attended Fay's seminar, and that really helped bring my skills to another level.

I work for Motion Products, restorer of vintage Ferraris. I am fortunate to work with such beautiful cars.

I recently started writing a blog about metal shaping. It is in the early stages of development. I am working out the kinks, developing content and my writing style. I am interested in writing about metal shaping because it helps me think about the process in a different way. I hope that writing about it will help me grow as a shaper. I am interested in feedback, and am looking for topics of discussion for the blog. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
