Hey everyone,

Just came across the site while doing research for a pneumatic planishing hammer I'm drafting / planning to build in June.

I live in Portland Oregon and work as an animator.

I've been focusing completely on metalworking for about a year now. My areas of interest run a pretty full spectrum at the moment. I was doing some custom body stuff on a 62 Mercury I had, but had to sell because of a move. Now that Im settled again Im devoted 100% to the craft.

On top of actual shaping, Im also trying to collect and restore older machines and tools. Something about learning all about the different restoration techniques, and coming out with an amazing piece of equipment. (Most recent find was a Lennox No. 18 throatless shear.)

Well, theres my introduction

See you all around!
