Default Introduction

Howdy, I have been lurking for quite awhile first on MM and now here. I am interested in metal shaping as I am building a Model T speedster and I would like it to come out nice. I have learned a lot by just reading and playing with hammers and shotbag. I have a stump that I haven't prepared but am looking forward to practicing on. Thanks for sharing the collective experience.

Andy

I have always liked this one. It was supposed to be painted red white and blue for a 4th of july race.

No there isn't allot of shape in this particular body. It will however get me used to working the metal and maybe some aluminum welding if I decide to go aluminum. There are some other projects which will require some more shape.
