Default Interested in all kinds of metal working

Am Mario in Prince Edward Island, Canada.
Work as a designer in a metal fab shop that does industrial food equipment, conveyors mostly though there have been a few more interesting projects along the way.
Am a car guy, drag racing, financial woes have kept me from the track lately but this car is sitting in my shop.


Car is built from a rusty T-Bird and a chassis kit in my shop. At the time I owned my own metal fab shop, the lazer, press brake and CNC Machining Center were a big help. LOL

No access to those kind of tools now so I have to think differently. These MSD box brackets were done with a drill press and layout


Another recent project is this holding fixture for working on my transmission, been working on the transmissions rolling them around on a bench for years. Finally came up with a design that seems to work well.



Looking forward to seeing all the members work and methods, am a life long learner and know I will pick up lots of things.
