Another novice metal shaper from down under
G'day every one,
My names Matt and I'm a novice ( wanna be ) shaper . I'm a diesel fitter of 16 years and have had an interest in all things cars ,in particular Australian muscle cars as long as I can remember .Two years ago I recently re purchased my very first car back in slightly worse for wear condition , a 1956 Fj Holden , which has been sitting quietly in my shed ,until recently when I decided to begin a complete restoration ( with some modifications ) of the car . Whilst I have sound metal fabrication abilities I've always had a desire to learn how to shape metal properly ,which on the weekend took me to Peter Tommasini's workshop in Melbourne . WOW , what a day , thoroughly enjoyable to say the least .Peter suggested joining the forums which is what I'm doing and look forward to learning more from anyone with something to teach , Warm regards Matt
