Hi,

I'm new to the forum and some what new to metal shaping. A short back ground on me. I'm a journeyman machinist and own my own company called Tromblay Tool. I'm also a A&P (airplane) mechanic and pilot. We are a small job shop that specialize in custom machining, welding and design. We do work for many different industry's and specialize in component manufacturing for vintage aircraft. We have been in business since 2001 and still going strong.

We have been repairing aluminum airplane parts for many years now. But we would like to make more complex shapes so I have attended Peter T. class now twice and have met other local sheet metal guys.

Thanks, Bill Tromblay
