Kid from PA

Nate Lagler · #1 12-10-2010, 12:35 AM

This would be my introduction. I'm Nate, I live in eastern PA and work in a restoration shop in New Jersey. I do metal shaping and fabrication there, and have a shop set up in my Dad's basement with all my equipment. I have taken Fay's seminar and the things I know about metal shaping are from him and fumbling through it myself. I have a Pullmax and Milwaukee planishing hammer with a fabbed pedestal and a CP handheld. I have a Dynasty 200DX tig, Monarch 10ee and step pulley bridgeport. I am currently working on making power hammer dies at home for the Pettingell hammers I am setting up at work and also dies for myself for when I get my own hammer. I guess that is it.

Thanks for the intro Nate. I expect there will be some members going to change their underwear after seeing the double head power hammer....

Haha, no problem. I started setting those up in the begining of September. We didn't have a pedestal so just fabbed one. Prior to that they were doing a good job of holding up the radio, but I saw some more potential. Hopefully I'll be setting up my own hammer soon.
