Mainely,Bob Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Just found this forum while looking for power hammer plans and decided to join. Been a metal worker all my life in everything from factories to shipyards.I have strong backgrounds in welding,machining,forging,fab work,etc and have a small fab/machine shop of my own.I enjoy making or modifying tools and machines and rehabbing old iron. Hope to pick up some tips here and maybe be of some help in any way I can,hopefully you won`t pick up any of my bad habits.;^) Mainely,Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainely,Bob Posted November 14, 2009 Author Share Posted November 14, 2009 Thanks for the prompt to the profile.Figured out how to post my info there. This forum is alittle different than the others I`ve been to but I`m sure even an old dog like me can figure it out. Wait till I try to post pics and you`ll find out just how computer illiterate I really am.That`s bound to be a wake up call,especially for yours truly.
