SETH FUHRMEISTER
FEW would have expected a 19-year-old from a tiny town in Victoria to roll into last year's Street Machine Summernats with one of the coolest and most surprising Toranas at the event, but Nintingbool panel beater Seth Fuhrmeister clearly pays little mind to others' expectations.

DIRTY STUFF
FOLKS, there is a way to solder aluminium. It was long thought to be impossible due to the instant oxidisation that this metal attracts; trying to solder it using conventional flux-based methods would simply see the lead solder dribble off and fall on the floor. But the method I use works, is ridiculously simple, and is permanent.
