|  Yet another newbee. 
			
			Hello all.  Another newbee from the down-under land of OZ. Have signed up as this is a great site with heaps of great info. Im a painter and beater by trade but still a virgin when it comes to coach building panels from sheet. Like most of you, I love the ability to create a three dimensional panel out of flat sheet and while i can beat up panel damage and fit / replace bolt ons, Im still way out in the deep end when I see whole panels formed from raw sheet. This skill of coach building / panel forming is truly an art. Its a skill that is being lost to time. I certainly don't know of anyone in my local area who can work metal like those found in these pages. So thank you for allowing me to join your site and i look forward to speeding a great deal of late nights trolling through the various threads seeking the answers to the next sheet metal problem i encounter. Cheers Tim. |
