Default Hello from UK - An absolute beginner

Hello, I'm Paul and I live just down the road from Brands Hatch in Kent, UK

Very pleased to have found this forum.

I've been tinkering with motorcycles all my life and have always been interested in how custom made body parts are formed but have never got around to learning. My dad wants a custom made mudguard for his trail bike and thought this would be my opportunity to start learning the skill.

This looks like the perfect place to start. Thanks for setting up a very informative forum!

Cheers
Paul
