Default Car Guy's Garage

Hi Guy's. Been here a few times and not done the right thing and joined properly.

Mark from Melbourne, Australia. We have a smallish Hot Rod and Custom shop, with myself and a few guys.

We've been doing more and more involved body and panel making, updating or rather building a few machines and getting a few others working.

We have an english wheel medium sized that we made, a large english wheel currently under construction a few bead rollers, shrinker streacher, and a pullmax that after purchasing a few years ago have final started to work out some ways to use it, just recently.

We're joining up to look at what others are doing, and maybe to learn some new or different approaches to the work.

I and my guys are all keen to learn and do more metal shaping, the pride and sence of achievement when you can make something half decent from a flat sheet is something well worth the effort.

Thanks for the welcome guy's.

Cords maybe I can learn that whispering thing on here?

Jamie or Peter drop me an email I'd be interested in turning up to the meet at Peter's, probably time I gave him some of my money for some extra hammers and such anyway.
