Hello all, Geezer here that has done metal fab, welding, machine work, composite work. Motorcycles are a longtime favorite, aircraft have been what paid the bills. Aviation has become less pressing. I have recently become very interested in metal shaping due to a little project I had to build. I am fixing to visit local Harbor Freight and get a cheap planishing hammer, english wheel, have located stump and will be looking for affordable hand tools. Harbor Freight deal will probably be painful but the fixes seem to be known and I have capability to fix them. Got no money for better equipment so it's low budget or nothing. Looking forward to everyone's advice, I'll need plenty I imagine so please don't be shy about giving advice. I will contribute if anything comes up that I am qualified to address, but mostly try to learn. Thanks all, Larry
