Hello all,
I ran across this site as I was searching for help dreaming/planning the build of my dream car:  It starts with building a workshop on my property (this year?), then grabbing some scrap and building my metal-working skills up from nothing. I'm watching plenty of online videos and reading as much as I can about the art. I was following a brilliant build on this forum about a similar vehicle built in Australia. I hope I can make it happen, it would be quite an accomplishment.

Hello John, welcome to allmetalshaping! start with scraps of metal and hand tools and build up from there, it costs little to get started and you will always need the hand skills no matter how many machines you get. Thats how I learned.
