Default Greetings from Toronto

Hello all.Looking forward to sharing thoughts and ideas here .I'm new to metal shaping but it's been a lifelong interest.I found an English wheel for 400 dollars.Pretty good price...I think.If anyone has any advice on bare necessities as to auto body forming equipment I'd be glad to hear it.
Thanks.Dan Graystone.

Hi Dan. Welcome to the forum. If you are new to metal shaping and want to meet a bunch of guys who want to share and / or learn, this is the place to be. Lots to glean from this site. Take a look at the link that Kerry listed for the metal meet Pugsy is hosting just two weeks from now. Look forward to meeting you there. There are a number of guys just like us in the GTA. I'm north of you in the Innisfil area.
