Default From sunny and HOT Phoenix AZ

Hello all! My name is Mike Proulx, have been a welder/fabricator for 30 years and new to metal shaping. I have a need for some sheet metal parts for my motorcycle so I watched Lazze metal shaping videos and got hooked. I am in the process of buying an English wheel, bead roller, shrink-er and stretcher. I know I will cull an enormous amount of knowledge, and maybe a friend or two. I am ready to have fun!

Welcome form Mesa. Went to Lazze's class, very helpful. Thought I knew all about bead rollers as I have had a small Pexto for 30 plus years. Boy was I wrong.

There's a few of us here in the PHX metro area.


I should probably be thinking of a meet and greet sometime.
