A good friend of mine, Terry is a master metal man. I have watched him for years and also watched videos he has lent me. My hobby is building hot rods and drag cars. Mainly I like the chassis fabrication. Now, at the ripe old age of 71 I thought I might try a little metal shaping. Just testing the theory that you are never too old to learn.

Thank you for the friendly welcome everyone.
Barry, many years ago I went to your house to have you drill some Mustang rotors. Instead, you lent your drill guide to me, a stranger. I'll always remember that. Through the years we have talked briefly, most recently a few years ago in the GSTA show hospitality room, about your Bonneville experiences.
Thank you for your offer of help on future metal bending I might attempt.
Bob MSRA #402
