2nd try - wonder where the 1st went: newbie

[rekklss]

Obviously I am not doing this correctly. So I will try again. Lost the 1st try.
I am an old time mechanic that went back to school to become a kind of engineer. Integrated circuit mask layout designer. Pays better.
I have a new job close to home so I want to get back to working on my projects at home. Couple of motorcycles need some repairs as does my Superformance Cobra.
I took a metalshaping class in Tempe, AZ - one days worth.
I now have the time to continue with my metal shaping skills & hopefully learn more.
My name, Rekklss, is what my hockey & motorcycle friends call me. Comes from the way I played ice hockey (I still play) ... & how I ride my motorcycles. My riding is not reckless but I am a continuing student of road racing - Keith Code Superbike School & to the uninitiated ... it *appears* I ride rather reckless. Actually I ride under control.
Just wanted to make that clear.
I really want to learn how to use the power hammer & english wheel better.
One days worth does not make me very skilled. I hope to learn more, soon.
