Need help with sheet metal work. Working on '49 chevy truck.
My interests include knife making, metal sheaths in the "San Francisco style" machine work (very limited knowledge and experience with lath and mill) , leather work for sheaths, and would like to make shoes someday but time is get'n me.
Haven't done to well with lead soldering, repaired an old barn copala, and old sky light as seem on old buildings in citys.
I can mig, stick,tig, and gas well need improvement on all specly tig and gas.
Did silver jewlery work in the southwestern style in my '20s.
Would like to pursue lost wax casting, have the equipment but...time
Painted my '77 chevy short bed last fall, first time auto paint job, enjoyed that very much,and will do more after i learn to shape metal.
Looking forward to meeting learning and hopefully I can contribute also.
