Default hi, all!

Hey my name is Chuck Leis and I'm from Pittsburgh. I've been into cars and stuff, basically since I was born. I recently bought a motorcycle I want to turn into a cafe racer and want to modify the tank. looking for a good resource on metal shaping techniques and came across this site in an article hot rod magazine's site. I also will be looking into ways to reduce body filler use in body work. Thanks in advance for sharing all of your knowledge with me.

Thanks guys! Looking forward to being able to teach my dad (who was a body man for 20yrs or so) a thing or two about metal working! This is something I've always wanted to learn and will be able to apply it to my hobbies. Thanks again!!
