Default New Guy from MA

Hi Guys,

My name is Chris. I got into metal shaping simply because i needed patch panels for some of my old car projects. I then started doing research online looking for an e-wheel i could buy. In the process I stumbled upon Wray Schelin's coach building class in Stafford CT. This was back in June of 2014 before he moved to his new shop in Charlton MA. I ended up taking his class and learning a ton. I also got hooked on this metal shaping stuff. So i bought an anvil and adjuster kit from Hoosier Profile to build my wheel. It came out pretty decent and works well for the stuff i do. I still stay in contact with Wray and go up to his shop to work on his projects and my own. I'm still a metal shaping novice but im here to learn more and hopefully contribute where i can.

-Chris
