Default Metal Butcher From Adelaide Australia
Hi All,


Got told about the site by a friend looks intersting and lots of valuable info.
Rebuilding and Hot Rodding a 48 Dodge Fargo Pick Up learning a few things along the way hopefully. My Dad was a Sheetmetal worker in his day and could do wonders should have taken more notice instead of partying hey. Hope to get some tips and maybe share some of my mistakes along the way. Already found some of Dads old hand tools and have had a quick practice on some hand swaging on some sheet metal when we figured out what they were for.

Cheers
Dean

Hey dude, welcome!

Seems a very disproportionate amount of us hailing from Adelaide lately, we're gonna have to start our own chapter...

Cheers

Ian
