I met Eddie Paul a few years ago through a mutual friend, and found that he is not just another Hollywood guy but a true car guy that works in Hollywood. He also loves building life-size cars like in the animated movie Cars, motorcycles, and even an occasional mechanical shark I also discovered he has a knack for writing Technical how-to books. Since that first day, we have crossed paths many times at car shows and events. He has been to my shop, Big Dog Garage, and I've been to his to compare notes, and he's offered a lot of advice over the years with my car collection.

When he asked me to write a foreword for his plasma Look, I discovered that we had the same Hypertherm units. I asked him to come down to my shop and show or some of his tips on plasma cutting. A lot of those tips are in this book. So, while Eddie is still a much better car builder, I can now cut cars up just as well as he can!
