Default Hi everyone

Hi everyone,
I have been trolling this forum for quite some time. I figured it was time that I actually signed up and continue to learn and help where I can.

A little about me:
I grew up in a household where hot rods and street rods were a common sight. Whether they were my dads, uncles, or their friends just stopping by. So naturally I took a liking to cars and customizing. I got into working on my own cars at a young age. As I grew, so did my curiosity or customizing. I did simple filling and welding, cutting etc.

Later on I apprenticed in at a body shop and started to paint and learned some more tips and tricks on how to move metal for the better. This got me wanting to learn more so I decided to quit and go to Wyotech.

Since then I have gotten out of Wyotech I haven't gone back to working on cars for a living. I do it more of a hobby where the passion can grow and not be stifled by mundane hoe hum everyday fender benders. Plus Wyotech was expensive so I went to work for money and insurance.

Now I work on custom cars and motorcycles. I have been wanting to take what school, life, and the internet has taught me. I still have plenty to learn and am wanting to get a better knowledge of the english wheel. Power hammers and other tools.
