My name is Mark, I live and work in the heart of Californias Gold Country. I just took a 3 day metalshaping class with Lazze and am eager to buy/build some shaping tools so I can build something. I have been machining stuff for years and now it is time to add some new skills.
I find learning new skills to be much easier if I don't have to make all of the mistakes that can be made, so I am hoping to gain a leg up by reading and seeing what others are having success with, and hell, I may even be able to add something to the pot myself.

Thanks for the welcome, I need an e-wheel first, should I build it or buy it?
Second is a power bead roller.
I am making a 1942 buick into an elcamino type truck.
My progress so far has been less than impressive.
thanks
