Default Hi Timmy here

Hey everyone I'm Timmy. I've been in the auto industry for about 14years now. I've learned a lot of tricks from old timers and young guys alike.

I'm here to see what it's all about and hopefully learn more and maybe make some new friends. I'm really interested in making some of my own tools and machines and finding some old machines to bring back to life.

I have a lot of projects planned to build and a lot of stuff that I have built in the past. The things I want to build are all from scratch with the basic blueprints in my head and a lot of intricate workings. Things like an aluminum desk for my daughter all bead rolled with patterns and pictured embossed in with the roller then buck riveted together with hidden compartments controled by a hand made criptex to release the doors.

Well looking forward to being here.
