Hi
I just signed up here after years of browsing. I'm located in Ireland and interested in restoration and modification of old cars. Currrently working on a few Jaguars and MG's as well as a few other projects. Relatively new to metal shaping but find it fascinating. I bought Dave Gardiners DVD a few years ago and have watched it a few times.

I currently have a Pullmax type machine (English made - can;t remember the make right now) which I have not used yet - I'm retrofitting a new motor and inverter tio it as the original motor was damaged when I bought it.

I'm interested in making shrinking dies for it as a start - I have a small cnc milling machine so am hoping to use that to speed up my die making process.

I also have the usual cheap shrinker stretcher copy and have just got a loan of my brother's Engligh wheel and plansihing hammer.
