Default Want to learn more metal shaping techniques

Hi
I joined this forum because I wanted to learn more metal shaping techniques. I am currently restoring a 1947 Willys with a lot of rust and I need all the help I can get. I own MIG, TIG, MAG welding machines, plasma cutter, band-saw, profile cutter, press brake and hand tools.
My motto is I'd rather buy tools to do it myself than pay someone else to do it...

Welcome to AllMetalShaping Jon.

We have 3 more members from Iceland. One of them, Gudmundur, is a frequent poster. Here is a link to his profile:

I'm sure you are neighbors both being from Iceland. But you never know.

Hello Jon, welcome to the site. You might be surprised what you can achieve with very few tools.
