Default New from southern Ohio
Hello, I been welding and fabricating for about 31 yrs but I have really been wanting to get into the sheetmetal forming part of it for awhile, it seems like a good time to get started.I have a few old 32-34 ford trucks that I have been wanting to fix and need to make some panels for. I know that some can be bought but the the real interest is making the parts yourself. This has always my true passion( the metal shaping I'm fascinated with this) I'm a true, true rookie with a few hand tools to get me started.I hope to make or buy the basic tools needed as soon as I figure out what I really need. So much knowledge on here ,I like to be able to take even a little in. Thanks Mark

Hi Mark, welcome to Allmetalshaping, at least you can stick the bits together after you've found how to do it.

Have fun
