Hello from Massachusetts
Hi my name is John McCurdy, from Billerica Massachsetts, a town about 20 miles north of Boston. Thanks for starting this site, I've really just started into metal shaping and have learned a lot from reading the posts. I've been an auto body tech for better than 30 years now so beatin' and bangin' on sheetmetal is nothing new, I do a fair amount of "fabricating" patches and panels, but now in the process of learning to "metalshape" with the help of this site. I have just the basic shaping tools,(stump, tucking forks, hammers and mallets, stretcher, shrinker) along with my collection of autobody tools, I want to learn the basics by using these hand tools then if I get any good would like to progress to a pullmax type machine. I do have some experience on an englishwheel I just don't have access to one now. Enough about me, lets get started. Thanks again
