Hello!

Became interested in metal shaping when restoring old cars, want to make my own floor pans, and most of the other metal sheets on a car by myself.

Ordered a HF beadroller lookalike (From swedish shop) wich will get some modifications to work as I want and also a metal shrink/stretcher wich will be modified to foot operation further on..

So let´s se where it takes me, It´s a start!

Welcome to the forum Robin. Nothing wrong with having machines but the most used tools in my workshop are probably hammers and dollys. A good selection of these and a stump will enable you to make most things.
