    Metal forming with Mike looks so freekin' easy but we all know it's an artform and takes a real master craftsman to make, fit and weld panels like this. Love the videos Steve!

    I'd just like to thank 'Steve' for capturing and organizing the moments and for Mike keeping it real and funny while giving a clinic on metalwork. THAT's why you reached 50K. Congrats! I know it wasn't easy.

    I've been watching you for a long time. I cus like a sailor, but, I gotta say, since you knocked off a bunch of the F bombs, and started showcasing your talent....whole new world. The quality of your work, your skills, and your imagination are second to NONE. Some of the one piece, compound panels you create are amazing. Keep showing them what quality really is. Great post.....PS.....really good videographer too. Keep it up.....just an old Gringo's opinion.

    Few people have the opportunity to have a Ranfla chopped the right way by an artist like Mike. Talented Dudes like Mike and old school bombs are becoming more rare these days. Whoever is the owner, enjoy and appreciate your Ranfla, it's looking badasss.

    Of course we like your work and how it's looking.
