Howdy from Montana!
Howdy,
My name is Troy and I'm a retired Ironworker; the son of an Ironworker and one of my sons will soon be an Ironworker. My father taught me how to set up & use an oxy-acetylene torch when I was eight years old. I had a High School that had a very well equipped metal shop, lathes, milling machines. Even a foundry, we poured aluminum....Can you imagine anyone letting 16 year old kids handle 1200 degree crucible today? I've worked on high rise buildings hanging iron, and then hanging on a swing stage setting panels & glass. In college I took auto body and learned to stretch and how to shrink metal; figured I'll always have a car, might as well know how to work on them. I just built on 4/01/12 a sheet metal break. I would love to show it someday. Sincerely, Troy |
Troy, welcome and thanks for the nice introduction. Hope you find the site helpful and enjoyable. Thanks for joining us.

Howdy,
Thanks and I glad to be here, My son and I are building a sheet metal top for his 1976 Jeep CJ5. My interests are riveted aluminum boats from the 40's, 50's & 60's. Troy |
