New kid just trying to learn.
 
Hi everyone! My name is Clif I live in Round Rock Texas am married with an 18 yo son. I am a 100% disabled US Marine Veteran who enjoys working with my hands. I owned & operated a race car fabrication shop for 15 years in which I had built everything from street beaters to full pro cars. I do not have my shop anymore but am still active in the racing community.

Currently I am involved with a Top Fuel Hydro named "Problem Child". www.eddieknoxracing.com if ya want to check it out. I am currently building custom rifles & helping other racing teams with sponsorship proposals. Also I have also gotten into building custom "old school" hot rods at home. My latest project was my dads 1930 Model A P/U that he has had for over 55 years. (I am not able to post pics of past builds, but will once I am cleared through the site admin.)

I have always wanted to learn the art of metal shaping but have never had the time with running a buisness, and traveling the country racing. I am hoping to feed off of the experiance on this site to guide me in the right direction. Thanks for reading, and it is an honor to be on this site. Thank you! Clif:D

Glad you're here Clif and thanks for your service! there is a fairly big metalshaping community in Tx and they have regular get togethers. Look around the events forum and you'll see some photos and such.
