Michael from Melbourne

[sojevic]

Hi All,

My names Michael and I'm from Melbourne, Australia. I currently work as an eCommerce Co-Ordinator at a large corporate and love how fast paced the eCommerce industry is and how quickly it is growing.

I've grown up with a father who has built many cars throughout his life, from Hot Rods to Mustangs. He managed to pick up a Cyclops pedal car for me from a swap meet and taught me how to strip back the paint, and respray it. Recently I noticed how hard it was to find good quality steel pedal cars around and decided to source and sell these cars online. It is a very small hobby but one I wish to grow.

I am new to metal working, but want to learn how to shape metal to build a simple style pedal car and then work on building more complicated shapes and panels.

I know that there are a lot of experienced and helpful people on the forum, and hopefully I can share some of my knowledge in the eCommerce area to assist others.
