Default Hello From Norfolk UK

My name is Iain.

Live in Norfolk UK.

I have been fabricating for quite a few years both for work and pleasure.

Done various jobs from rust repairs to full car restorations and scratch built vehicles. Steel or Aluminium

Love metal shaping and fabricating as it keeps the brain active even when I'm not in the workshop.(which is not often)

Always keens to see what others are doing as you never stop learning.

Hi Iain,

Welcome to the forum, would love to see what you work on, do you work as a pro-restorer as a day job?

Thanks for the welcome.

I'll dig out some more pics as time goes by but some stuff in no particular order follows if I can work out how to post images. Only came across this forum by chance today.

I did work professionally until earlier this year but had to take a break due to health issues. Got a long long road back but have been asked to do some teaching when I'm upto it and have my own workshop too.

Hi Iain,

Some nice work there, having seen some of your work on F/book, you got some really cool & challenging things to work on.
If you dig deep into this site you'll this is good place to learn new stuff from lots of talented people, like yourself.
Something we have in common is being big fans of Creative Classics work, Darrens one of the best.
