Default Hey there!

I was an Aircraft Structures Troop or "sheetmetal" for 20 years in the AirForce. I just recently retired and now Im slowly trying to build my home shop. It sucks being used to a million dollar AirForce shop. Not that I ever used it for personal prodjects. LOL I mostley do metal fab on my old car prodjects but still love playing with metal. Look forward to checking out the site!
Jeff

Peter, there really wasnt any specific part I worked. We just fixed whatever broke. Over the years I worked everything except bombers.
