As im sure introductions are needed i'll give you the rundown.
Im a 21 year old male blacksmith working in Old England, having varying success with jobs as i currently have two; one being in a supermarket and one which isnt really worth mentioning.
I studied blacksmithing for 2 years at college and overall got a good pass out of it, not to mention all the memories. When i started, I also started doing part time work at a place called Anvil Ironworks and have helped them with various projects through the years, all in all had a great time there.
In my second year of college i also started doing some part time work at a forge called Stanmer Park Forge doing much more solo work and getting alot of traditional forging practice.
Unfortunately Stanmer is now closing but I still occasionally go up to Anvil and do odds and sods.
I'm slowly but surely building up my collection of tools and am hoping to be able to start making small bits from my garage soon after Xmas, like wood burners, braisures... bottle openers, coat racks, to name a few off the top of my head.
Errrr.... is there anything else i could or should add? Never been very good at posting on forums but i'll try my best to pitch in here :)
