You might not be so young anymore, but you aren't old either. You've still got many decades ahead of you yet. I see that Gene Winfield is closing his shop at age 96. What a great run he's had. Hope we can all do the same.

Every time I watch you get into those tight spaces my body starts to ache . I was a Boilermaker welder for 45 years and have gotten into small spaces that I was thinking I will not be able to get out. I get these vivid flash backs from work and dream I still building pressure vessels. I guess for some people they will think this would be hell. Cheers
@avid61867 ай бұрын
What seems like a lifetime ago I was an asme ix welder on petrochemical plants. Then moved into piping design rather than actually building it. There's something very satisfying about looking at a plant, with all its pressure vessels, heat exchangers and all the spaghetti joining it together and knowing you were a part of the team that made that happen. To me it's a work of art, better than any painting hanging in an art gallery, maybe even on a par with one of Fitzees cars 😊 I think we, the tradesmen of the world, should be very proud of our contribution.

The tips were great and that was some fabricating niceness. The panels came out great and putting a crown on them certainly stiffened them up. It looks factory made. Even Peanut cmae over and gave it a cat scan. She agrees.

It’s been awhile since I’ve had a project in the garage but this morning I brought home a 1972 Monte Carlo and I can’t wait to get at it! Actually a super nice body, not much metal work to do at all but what there is I’m actually excited to do 👍

Tony - always great fabbin' !! You are the first I've seen to stretch before rolling, Which makes sense and makes the panel have no oil canning fight when installing! When [and always] Tony's experience makes sense, it works !!! Love the highest quality workmanship with hand made equipment, anyone can do this as I do the same. But I'm laid up with ankle surgery so I am always looking to learn more from experience!! Me at 61yrs thanks Tony

The first wheeling machines were developed in England in the late 1890s. Craftsmen in the UK preferred using an English wheel, rather than the mechanical hammers which were popularly used for shaping metal on the continent, as they are kinder to the metal and they also help it to retain it's integrity.

Looks like the shop inspector is back from winter break. It must be starting to warm up in Newfoundland now. It's the opposite here in Queensland Australia, where it's cooling down now.
