About Me

Sheet Metal Mike

Hello, my name is Mike, but my friends call me 'Sheet Metal Mike'. This might seem like a strange nick-name but in reality, it makes complete sense. You see, a few years ago, I went to visit my brother's industrial factory which is located just off the 902 on the way to Sydney. I was supposed to be there to catch up with my brother but, to be honest, I spent more time watching and chatting with the chaps working in his factory.

Since then, I have been working hard to master the skills required in my own little DIY industrial shed. I hope you find my blog useful.
