Hello All,

Eric here, I have held an interest in anything mechanical since the first motor given to me to "fix" around five. As an extension of that I fell in love with automobiles. The drive train, the chassis, the shape and style, the thrill when stepping on the accelerator. That being said I actually work in an office, not quite sure how that one happened.

I have assorted hammers, dollies, a small e-wheel, lathe and have taken a class and played with Pullmaxs and planishing hammers. It was there I was hooked on metal shaping. Taking a flat piece of steel and ending up with a beautiful panel (at least I think so) filled me with a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Looking to construct a reciprocating p-max type hammer as well as a planishing hammer (isn't everybody?). I also hope to learn and contribute to the community as my skills develop. Seems like a great group of people and a great deal of knowledge here so I'm psych'd.

Thanks,

Eric
