Default Yet another from "down under"

Hello,

My name is Ian, (that's why my username includes En), and I'm another new member who found this forum through a post on the Ozrodders forum.

I am trying to build a hot rod from a '46 Chev pickup. So one reason I am interested in being part of this forum is so that I can hopefully pick up some hints to help me. I also hope that I can in some small way contribute and help others.

My late father was a metalworker and watching him at work began my interest in working with metal. I have always "tinkered" with bits of metal to make small objects, it is only fairly recently that I have had the time to become more involved.

Hello Ian. allmetalshaping is a friendly place so I am sure you will fit right in. Tinkering is how most of us got started.
