Welcome aboard.

One of the things I love about working metal is no matter how long you're doing it you're always "new" to one aspect or another.

If you'll click on "User CP" at the top of the page and edit your profile to show your location us old farts won't have to try to remember. You're also likely to discover folk in your area that can give you a hand in person.

Welcome from the forge fires in the South. I'm a former Iowan myself. These are really good people and will help you a bunch.
