Hi All,
I am into older cars, which unfortunately tend to rust in this country. I have joined because I am interested in learning how to make/repair panels and workshop tools for my projects rather than paying the extortionate prices for repro or secondhand off ebay. I haven't done much in the way of metal bashing yet, the extent of my knowledge so far is David Gardiners DVD, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Much more to learn, like most skills, can't beat hands on practice.
Ian

Welcome to the site Ian. I am glad you like the DVD. I hope you learned enough to give you a good idea of how to go about forming most patch panels and how to get good results. Thanks for your custom.

David
