We offer Private Metal Shaping & Fabrication training by request. This is intended for those who may have a project, or part of a project that they would like to bring in to the shop for assistance. It is also ideal for those who want to further their skills in a very specific area, or who may just need some "refresher" shop time.
Private training is offered as schedule permits, and there is a three-hour minimum. Materials, as necessary, are charged in addition to the hourly rate. Tuition is $75 per hour for one student, $125 per hour for two students. No more than two students may attend at one session.
When you sign up / enroll, please submit 3 potential dates (with times, preferably) that will work for you. Please check these dates against our regular class schedules, because those are black out dates for private training. Many students, however, chose to enroll in a scheduled class and add a day, usually at the end of the class session for indivdual, private training.
If you have questions about private training, or want to check availability, please contact us here

This "dolly" shot bag is great for repairing aluminum bodies or components. We like it because it so portable and leaves your metal mark-free!
Made of top-grade leather hides. Each bag is double stitched and has a leather binding around the edge. A velcro closure system is used to retain sand or shot.
Please note:
Bags come unfilled. We recommend filling with #9 lead bird shot, available at most sporting goods stores.
