Anyone know why there are two Bodywork forums down a bit. I posted in one and message appeared in both, it seems. One is called Body Work, the other Body repairs.

They thought they did not have to use OSHA APPROVED organic vapor respirators and they are on the floor gasping....

It's a duplication. One should be removed. But hardly anyone goes there anyway!

I just bring up the questions here.

Stretch is the unchallenged bodywork guru on w123s now that Chas300td seems to have left the building.

Or so you would think there is however a shining star waiting in the wings who can make some beautiful welds. He's sent me some pictures and I reckon he should be posting his work over on MetalMeet - for Metalshaping Enthusiasts & Professional Metalshapers as well as here.

And there's another chap who has been doing some pretty impressive work. It seems to me that the bodyworkers here are a shy bunch

Here's a google image for "shy bodyworker" for you



eeeek!
