Good evening fellow fabricators. Love bashing metal - especially for old cars and custom tools. Got a few hand tools and some power ones too - sheet metal shears, folder flanger, mill, lathe, MIG, AC TIG, small plasma cutter etc ... all the usual. Used to import Detroit Iron to the UK (before I retired) and did a lot of fettling on the same. So that's hard to give up!!
Like learning new skills - especially for old(er) cars. Used to have four Lincolns from the 80's and 90's (2 Continentals and 2 LSC Marks). Now down to a couple of 20ish year old Rover 75s (a saloon and Tourer V6s).
Currently restoring a rear subframe/suspension assembly and making some improvements as I go. Wanted to expand my sheet metal shaping skills so was looking for DIY build plans for a deep throat flanger/bead roller when I happened on this most interesting place. Hope to learn a little and maybe share a bit too? Happy days.
