Hey from San Luis obispo calif
 

Hi nick here I am 45 from calif. been working in metal since I was 16 when I took my first welding class in high school. Went on to college got a welding/ mfg/material engineering degree. Worked in the mtn bike industry building frames and running machines. Switched to precision sheetmetal and then briefly quartz glass all around cnc lasers. Switch careers into property management and continued to tinker with bike frames 4x4 trucks boats. Promised myself I would build my new shop this year and get all my equipment into a good working space so I could build some knives and give my kids a good exposure to the metal trades.

So the other day I was fishing thru some tools and found an old pexto bench mount stake anvil set I got from my buddy some years back and I got it all cleaned up and painted and lubed and mounted on my welding table and thought I would look for some info on pexto and some other sheetmetal tools and found this site and wanted to look at the pics you guys post but couldn't get access so I joined up to see what I could see and learn thanks for having me.

Regards
Nick
