Hey, im Carter from London. Im not new to metal work but i know little about metal shaping.
Im here to learn and hopefully build some tools thatll help me on my way to shaping some motorcycle bodywork and such.
I repair the london buses and am sick of seeing all the scrap aluminium being thrown out. Hopefully ill be able to recycle some of it

Welcome to the forum, Carter!

I bet there's no shortage of London buses to repair. My Dad's been a bus enthusiast ever since he was a lad – https://www.flickr.com/photos/41302931@N03/albums

Very true, and it also means i wont have to worry about running out of material to practice on.

Some nice old buses there. From back when they actually repaired them instead of just cable tying on new parts. haha
