Joe from Southern California, looking to learn more about shaping.

[kazlx]

Hi all, my name is Joe, I'm 34 and live in Tustin, CA with my wife and 2 year old son. I'm on a few other welding/car/garage forums under the same screen name, actually everything I'm registered for is under the same name. I'm into machining and welding/fabrication. I would like to learn some more techniques on metal shaping, along with tips and tricks to work into my other metal projects. I have some bigger projects I've done, like building my own blanchard ground fab table and a 4x8' CNC plasma. My plasma has been down for a while after moving houses and have to re-set everything up from scratch, but I'm almost there. There are a few projects I want to tackle that go hand in hand with shaping metal off of the plasma table, so that is the main reason that I decided to join up. I live in SoCal and I've met a lot of good people off different forums and have always had good luck sharing tools and knowledge/experience Everything I've learned has pretty much been self taught, rather than taking classes.
