I figured I'd poke my head in here and shake a few hands.
About me:
I like long walks on the beach, sunsets, etc...
No seriously, I'm closing in on middle age, a batchelor, a full time fireman, and a new blacksmith. I've been a semi serious welder for many years and figured to branch out a bit. I run a powdercoating shop out behind my house. If all continues to go well, I will never make a dime off of the powdercoating but me and my friends will have a lot of nice shiny stuff. I prefer to trade for my work to keep it from becoming too serious and keep it from being a real business.
I recently took my first blacksmith class locally here, found an old anvil to use, and am building a coal forge.
I read a lot more than I talk so don't expect me to ever be labeled a post whore. I do frequent a lot of other board, mainly centering around old trucks and auto restoration. There is a link in my signature to my blog where I show my projects.
