Default G,day from Tasmania
G,day All

Just introducing myself , Have been a sheet metal worker all of my working life but have just got into rebuilding cars , currently rebuilding a rusted out EK Holden Ute , and have a 26 Chrysler as well , so would like to learn how to curve and form metal into more complex shapes ,as haven't really got into this side of the trade , and am enjoying the rebuild of the Ute.

Cheers
Chris

Welcome to the site Chris, you don't need a lot of tools to get started. you would be surprised what you can do with a couple of hammers and dollys and a few simple home made tools.
