Ronthepainters intro

[ronthepainter]

Hi everyone, I'm Ron and I've been a tool junkie and bodyman/painter since the early seventies. I worked in a number of collision shops but the most fascinating were the places where some old masters taught me, to a degree, how to actually make metal do what i wanted without gallons of filler. I've always been amazed at the ability of old world craftsmen to shape a panel into a work of art using what amounts to two sticks and a rock compared to todays computerized machinery. Anyway...I've done a few small projects and am still looking for ways to improve my skills,add to my knowledge and feed my tool habit. Currently doing some race car tin and shopping for a small brake. Thanks, Ron.
