Default hey all

Hey,

My name is Joe. I have been into cars for most of my life but not so much body work. I have recently become very interested in metal shaping for the purpose of several projects I have in mind but I see now that there is a lot of potential use for the knowledge. Right now I am acquiring tools and just playing around. I am going to start building an e wheel soon as well. I could use some more knowledge about tools and techniques.

Thanks!

Hi Joe and welcome !
I would recommend you buying David Gardiner's DVD it is one of the best investment you can make, when it comes to learning metal shaping!

Exclamation

Also "sheet metal fabrication technics and tips for beginners and pros" by Eddie Paul is a good book (the one I prefer too)
