Default Hello to all, from St. Louis, Missouri

Well as the title says, I'm from St. louis, MO. I've been doing alot of custom fabrication work for a few years now, like exhaust systems, turbo cars, fuel cells ect. I would like to start learing the "forming" side of things. Everytime i see this stuff it gets my blood pumping but i have no idea where to start.

Hope to talk to alot of you guys and learn alot here as well. Thanks, Joel

Welcome from Kansas City! Its amazing to me what can be done with hand tools and some determination, waited a long time to get started because I thought I needed a lot of big expensive equipment and thats not the case. Jump in and start a project.
