			Hi all, I'm an aspiring new member. My name is Pete Kohlhepp living in Arivaca AZ. I am now retired and living on 10 acres that I am trying to fill with metal sculptures. I've come to a point where I want to shape some sheetmetal. I have been working on small projects and have already exceeded my knowledge of the subject. I need help----please. Came across this destination of all things sheetmetal. Looking forward, if you will have me, to all information for tooling, techniques, ideas, sources of supply and mistakes NOT to make. Nice to meet you all.
