Default Hello from Austin

Hi, my name is Kelvin. I joined this forum to learn about metal shaping. I am mostly a complete novice, with no tools other than a hammer. Currently I am learning to weld, later I hope to get some shaping tools.

Kevin, have you ever been to the Handbuilt Motorcycle Show there in Austin? There are a few folks that show bikes that work sheet metal that go there. It's in April but no dates have been set for this next year. I was down there this last April showing my handbuilt BMW.

All tools are a hammer except the chisel.....That's a screwdriver.
