Take a couple of the classes that are given by world class metal shapers - Covell or Fournier... and or go to their websites and get some of their how to videos at least.. there's A LOT to learn!

Not to be ignorant but are you interested in bumping or shaping?
For me I am trying to hone bumping skills as it is what I find myself up againt most often.

I don't know where Roseville is but Faye Butler (taught Jesse James metalworking) is located here in Massachusetts and offers classes in metalworking.
