Default Hi Metalshaping team!

Hi
I'm Cyclops, from New Zealand

Wanting to spend more time metalshaping on my english wheel and power hammer and eventually want to make a full shell on a wooden buck...just have to choose the right car that I want to spend a couple thousand hours on and don't want to find that I like a different car half way through!

Look forward to seeing everones work to get some inspiration!

Hi Shane

Welcome. Lots of very clever people and inspiration on here. I'm currently doing a Group 5 BMW E21 in aluminum over an MDF buck- not very well, but learning as I go.

I'm pretty sure it was off ebay if I recall correctely, it will be up in the attic with a box full of other metal shaping DVD's, I bought as many as I could get my hands on and cost me a small fortune, then left panel beating and have been engineering for the last 20 years, the interest has always been there and keen to start again!
