Here you may find images and discussions to prod your imagination and thought to newly found heights. Push the daisies out and the beat on sheets of whatever to make the best (your choice of projects, today mine is a cover for my door chime). Machine work does make some sheet-work easier doesn't it, like making special shaped stamps or just hammers to fit your own hand.

get it in shape, the shape you want.

Doug

Default Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum, Mark, from another old guy named Mark. I used to teach high school shop, so I have read more than an average share of stuff related to using one's hands in relation to brain development. Hand/brain exercise is important in young developing children’s brains, and in older adults as well for continued mental acuity. Get out in your shop and it will be good for you in so many ways. You are ahead of so many people with your knowledge/experience base, we look forwards to hearing more from you.

Hey Mark, welcome to the AllmetalShaping site.

There are always new and interesting ways to make things showing up here, and they will be some ideas that you might find useful.

Thanks for sharing.
