Good afternoon Ladies and Gents,

My name is Jim Walton a marine engineer by trade but a serial motorcycle restorer and fabricator by passion. I am an accomplished tig welder and aluminium fabricator however I have always wanted to fabricate compound curves for fuel tanks and fairings. I shortly intend to get myself an English wheel and have a go. Hopefully joining this forum should give me help and advice in the future.

Kind Regards
Jim

Hello James and welcome.

You will get lots of help here. Just be prepared to take lots of pictures even of the stuff that doesn't work. We learn as much from that if not more.
