Default Hi from Finland.
Hi, decided to join this forum as I've been looking for a forum like this to learn more about shaping metal and metal fabrication overall.

I'll be getting my drivers license this summer when i turn 18, and hopefully I will have my 65 VW Bug driveable before late fall, so I can enjoy it atleast a little before the dark winter months.
I love making things out of metal and I am constantly learning and getting better (often by making lots of mistakes before I get it right) and I hope that joining this site will improve my sheet metal work, although my Beetle is soon to be painted once I have the bodywork all done.

Anyway, that's my introduction I guess. Thanks for reading

Jerry, Finland

Welcome Jerry, I restored a vw when I was seventeen too. They are great cars with fun areas to repair.
