Mid Life Crisis=Career Change? ;)
I'm 38 going from a career in engineering to becoming a craftsman. I've been working as an engineer my whole career and working in the shop for fun. I have an opportunity to make the change and I'm going to make it happen. Metal shaping is something I want to master along with general metal fabrication. Looking forward to a life long learning endeavor.

I was in engineering for most of my working life and whilst it was generally OK, I didn’t really get a creative outlet, so I wish you the best and hope you can make it work, sometimes I wish I had been able to do this.

The only thing that will keep you from fulfilling your dream is you telling yourself you can't do it. I started on my MGB that I have owned since 1970 and 17 years later it is 11" wider and there is less than 200 lbs of the original car left. I'm all self taught and if I can do it, so can you.
