Introduction & Greetings from AZ
hi, I'm an artist from arizona and have been doing some metal working lately in stainless steel. I am looking for advice from people more knowledgeable than myself, and this looks like the best place I've found for that if I can manage to get in. in particular on forming machines, power and planishing hammers.

Welcome Jason. What gauge stainless do you normally work? I've got a customer doing some 16 gauge and it's slow going...

stainless
well 16 gauge is what I'll do using also, however there's no real reason I can't go smaller like 18 gauge, other than wanting something more substantial for the sculpture I'll be the working on for this client. I been looking at Kent White's products and like the fact you can do almost all the work with 1 tool. however price is an issue, what other products are out there are there any other products that can do the same thing? there's a picture on my site of the type of piece i'll be working on, called evolution of flora, at jasonstillmanart.com, thanks for the advice it's much appreciated, J

Which of Kent's products are you looking at? That is, what kind of machines are you considering.
Nice work on your web site. Is the tree the kind of thing you're wanting to do?
