Default Justin from vic australia

Hi there
My name is Justin and Im from melbourne australia. I started shaping metal when I built my kids a pedal car in steel. After that I did a short course in panel beating. Since then I bought myself an english wheel, some shrinker stretchers and an oxy set and made a few wooden mallets. Ive worked with aluminium for a friends cafe racer and found it pretty tricky and would love to hear other peoples techniques for creating parts.

Thanks
Justin
