Default New Desert Rat f rom Calif...

This is Mike. I live in the northern Mojave desert in Calif, a few hours north of LA. I have had a long interest in old cars. I am nearing completion of a small shop out back and recently found out about metal shaping for making car parts. As my skill develops I hope to also do a little metal work for some art projects...
