Hello All....My name is James & I live in indianapolis, Indiana. I have lived here most of my life with one exception. I lived in Grapevine Texas for two years. I work on power lines for a living and have been an electrician for years, but I have always had a passion for metal. I have past experience racing cars on dirt tracks & cut my teeth with metal by doing tubular chassis fabrication & repair...(plenty of crash repair) lol
Anyway I joined this forum to learn techniques and gain knowledge of metal shaping. I have a couple of car resto projects currently & have been wanting to tinker with metal yard &/or shop art.
Thanks for having me..!

Welcome, Indy here too. I had a good friend that worked as a lineman in Indy but passed away from appendicitis some time back and wonder if you knew him? His name was Tom Sutphin.
