My name is Ben van Berlo and I am 55 years old and been into cars most of my live.

I am an engineer and I am working in R&D at a plant that manufactures electrical wheelchairs. I am also a user of Solid Works 3D.

I like to build, create and invent things on every level.

Did sheetmetalwork for 25+ years on cars as a hobby, did a lot of projects of which a few can be seen in my picture gallery.

Got involved into real metalshaping in the year 2000.

I have been to several meetings in the USA, one in the UK and two in Denmark.

I have built most of the machines I use for metalshaping myself.

Reached a high standard by trail and error.
