Default Old dog, needs newtricks

I am Steve Gillis, I live in southeast south dakota. I have been in the autobody field since 1985, I have worked in shops and owned a shop (90% collision). I took a ten year break exploring other careers and now I am back into it working in a custom and restoration shop. I joined this group because I need metal shaping skills and I need them fast...I bet I can learn quite a bit here just reading then practice the techniques. I hope I can contribute too.
Thanks, Steve

Welcome to AllMetalShaping Steve. You should definitely try to come to the Rt56 metal shapers gathering in Dennison Mn, April 25-27. It's in the event forum.

Welcome Steve!

There are a lot of talented people on this site, one as close as Tea, SD. I live in Sioux City and only do motorcycle stuff. If you can make the Rt.56 meet in two weeks you will meet and learn from some great shapers from around the world. I've been twice and wish I could make this one.

Thanks.
