After metalmeet in Santa cruz there are a few more that come to mind for me.

Lazze must also be in this list of fine builders, and one more for Ron Covell... www.lazzemetalshaping.com www.covell.biz both are great teachers....

 

It`s Ian Berky out of Burbank CA of course ! ( I think it`s your round Ian ).

 

David (Mindover), Jimmy Hervatin, Matt Seret, Zach Suhr these guys inspire & impress me with their sheer ability.

 

I second Lazze and Covell for sure.

 

Here are a few I meet at Metal meet in Santa Cruz this summer.

 

Jimmy Hervetin was the first that came to mind.

 

Don't know if they've been mentioned, but out here in Utah: Kris Elmer (LoudPedal), The Deviator (Dekon), and Chris from Salt Flats Speed Shop.

 

Another one for the UK FH Ellis coach works

They turn out superb work but are crap at up dating there web site etc

 

Are there any around the Springfield Mo. area?
I would like to learn more about shaping.

 

I was able to take a class with Ron Covell several years ago. Back in those days, it was a hands on class and you did your own project with Ron helping you along the way. What a pleasure it is to be taught be this gentleman. If you did not understand something he always had another way to explain it to you. I have never had such a great time learning something new. Thanks to Ron. If you guys are looking for a slapper try a leaf spring. I have used several over the years and they work great and are almost always free. Just do a little cutting and grinding to make a handle and there you have a nice slap hammer.

 

I know there's some fantastic metal men on the HAMB, but I'd HAVE to put Jimmy Hervatin at the top of the list...This guy has unreal talent and as a bonus, he and his wife and son are some fantastic folks...no arrogance here just raw talent....Joe

This tech week would be a nice time for one of them to step up and teach us all something....just sayin'

 

I recall this feller knew his way around a sheet of tin. Mindover
