Pat Woods shaping a fender in his shopMy name is Pat Woods. From a very young age I had a desire to work with my hands. As time went on, it lead me to discover the trade of metal shaping. Through the guidance and knowledge of Fay Butler’s seminars I have started shaping metal on my own in Chicago, Illinois.


Pat Woods TiG welding in his shopI have a well equipped shop that consists of a pullmax, planishing hammer, mill, lathe and welder. Through the use of these tools I have been able to accomplish many different shaping jobs. I would like to take on more challenging jobs, but before I do, I would like to talk to you about your expectations so we can accomplish the task.


I am currently employed at a Harley-Davidson dealership as a motorcycle mechanic. Although I am very busy, I take every job very seriously and dedicate myself to the job at hand so the customer is satisfied.
