Default Hi from Brisbane, Australia

Hi,
After spending hours watching YouTube videos of the different ways people approach the same task, I'm keen to jump in and start trying to form my own alloy body panels. I have a Shelby Cobra replica and an Austin Healey 3000, so there are lots of options for panels to work on.
I'm moving to a property with a large shed, so there is a lot of equipment that I'll need to fill the shed with to achieve the goal...
Cheers

Invention is a combination of brains and materials.
The more brains you use, the less materials you need.
