Default Another one from the Bay Area

Hello all. I'm a newbie metalshaper and eager to learn! I went to school for Street Rodding a few years back and got a taste of shaping, and have been working in a Hot Rod shop for about a year. However, we do everything but paint and body, so most of my sheet metal work in forming/fitting floors and firewalls without too much shape. I am looking into finally building an E-Wheel and getting back to the stuff that brought me into this industry in the first place.

I see a lot of familiar faces around here, and I am sure I will enjoy it here!

It may be from MM, or from me buying your video a while back It has taught me a bunch of very useful methods, and since I only have hand tools right now, it is the PERFECT tool for me to keep learning! Planishing out to a smooth panel with just a hammer and dolly is still very hard for me to do, so I need to get some slappers and see if I can do better as it seems you prefer that method.
