hello fellow metal shapers! My name is adam hart and i've been doing metal shaping for about 5 years now. i attended wyotech where i learned to weld and had an intro into shaping. shortly after i attended lazze's 3 day shaping course were my brain got filled with new ideas and great knowledge. i've been working for the past 4 yrs at Wicked fabrication doing mostly street rods. we do rust repair, floors, firewalls, tubs, custom chassis. its been quite a learning experience and i was lucky enough to be a part of a scratch built 1938 alfa romeo 2900b s11 in aluminum that made its first appearance at the quail this year. now im moving on to j and l fabrication to work with vintage race cars and expand my knowledge. i joined the site to learn from masters of there craft and to network with fellow shapers. hopefully some of you can help me find the tools i desperately want and need to be ready to one day open my own shop. those tools are a ranalah english wheel (edwards is good too), a t3 pullmax, 24-36in cp planishing hammer, manual marchant shrinker, and of course a power hammer. hope to
