Default Hello from Portland, Oregon

Hello Group,
I have joined to learn the art of metal shaping as l have a couple of projects that I want to apply this new found hobby. I am double nickels and ramping up towards retirement, collecting tools, machines, and starting on the knowledge base.
I have a couple 3 morris minors and a 1954 MG TD not original on the inside, that I will be working on. I am also currently working on a new gate for the yard entry and am wanting to do metal art work for this. Second on the list is a CycleKart (gokart style) car of a prewar race car, hoping to do it in an aluminum body. These are the projects that have brought me here to get all the knowledge that I can from you and reading as I go along.

Well long winded but that's me in a nut shell.

Thanks for listening.

TX Mr fixit for the family
Chris
