Default Introduction... Hi

Hello,
Martin here, 40 something and spending far too much time in the garage (so she tells me).

I restored a '71 Triumph GT6 about 10 years ago, and as most people do, I still tinker with it.
Recently I discovered reshaping thin stainless sheet into exhaust heat shields and enjoyed it, then tried a small mock up section of wheel arch (fender) with reverse curve again in stainless and was ok.

I then decided to make some stainless wing mirrors, but struggling, so I come here to seek the know how.

Anyway, here I am and hope to learn.

Martin
