Default Hello from Hutto, Texas

Hi, I'm Mike from Hutto Texas. I am a newbie to metal shaping. I've been working on a few simple pieces to develop my skills and learn. I'm currently building a 1977 Honda CB550 cafe racer. I hope to be able to produce some custom pieces for this bike.

Here are a few pics. Everything is done with hammer and dolly. No e-wheel or power hammers at this point. Just trying to learn the basics.
