Default Alloha from sweden

Hi i´m a 19 year old boy from sweden and I am studying at a school where we learn the basics of metal shaping . I live in a town called Lycksele ​​that is located in northern sweden .I´m working on a vw beetle that now looks the same as they did in 1938

I joined Allmetalshaping to watch other peoples work and learn of it//Andreas Karlsson

Hello Andreas, welcome to allmetalshaping!. Its good to see young people interested in an old craft. I am interested to hear that you can learn this in a college or school there - tell me more. I taught at Colchester Institute on the restoration course here in the UK for many years but there is no funding for it now so it only runs part time. Like I said I would like to here more if you are willing.

David

Thanks Andreas, I thought it might be a course specialising in coachbuilding.
