Hey all,

I'm Colin from central Minnesota. My day job (and nights... and weekends...) is fleet maintenance/repairs and all-around fixer of problems at my family's mushroom farm, where I've developed a reasonably broad base of mechanical and metal fabrication skills in the last 15-20 years. I'm always looking to expand my abilities, so I attended a basic metal shaping class last year, and decided I'd like to pursue the craft further. Within the last week, I've begun machining the parts required to convert my old Libert shear into a reciprocating machine, and I hope to begin creating parts in my home shop soon.

Regards,
Colin Doyle
