Hi guys,

Jordy here from Maldegen in Belgium,

I'm restoring an Auto Union f103 audi 60 from 72
and want to learn the know how of sheet metal.
And here to read some tricks and tips of where to look at
But i'm not a real newbie , i graduated as a car mechanic and body painter
But worked 2 years in the trade and know working 12years in industrial bulking machinery
So yes i know how to weld and al that other stuff, but not how to work with thin metal

Got my own workshop with toolboxen full of tools and hamers
Got welders, oxy-accetelyn torches, mig and Tig welder
2 post car lift, car rotissery
And for the sheet metal:
Shrinker/stretcher with 25mm dept
A 40cm depth small english wheel
Beadroller cheap hand model
Beadroller electric powered model (build my own)
And top of the cake a real pullmax p13 model

Hi Jordy,
In spent 15 enjoyable years living in Belgium. I lived in Overijse. I'm now back home in Ireland. Eighty years old and still hammering and welding!

Mike
