Tanks to all of you for this welcome !
I live next to the beach were the us and canadian troups landed in 1944... Quite a well known place all around the world for this.
It is about 2 hours north ouest from Paris
I know lecocq. It is a very famous company here
I recently met an independant body worker, so i think we will arrange him to come at my workshop for my project so i can learn in the same time.
For the moment i only experienced basic details with a hammer and wood, but intend to buy a nibbler (found a nice trumpf) and probably an english wheel.
I have had a look at baileigh products on the web... Does anyone have experienced them? Look well made..
