New guy in Wisconsin

[PaulsGarage]

Hi everyone,

I'm Paul and i'm new to metal work. I've done some metal casting and a bit of metal shaping, but very little. My goal is to get into working on cars (restoring/customization) as a hobby, and to start i've been doing some small projects.

The main project i'm working on is a rebody of a powerwheels jeep (yes, the kids one) in steel, to look like a Willys CJ2A. Still working on it but here are some pics:



and the fender shaping i've tried:





I have more pictures, but they aren't uploaded to google yet. I have some videos somewhere on youtube of me working on it, don't have the links at the moment.

I've also been trying to learn welding:









Still have a lot to learn but it has been fun so far. I recently got some more tools to mess around with, but haven't uploaded any pictures.

If you want to see some casting, here's the one and only picture i have:



I'm looking forward to learning metal shaping, turns out it is addicting.
