Thany you for the good words .

Good morning everyone and hello from the Knysna Forest in South Africa .
I am a blacksmith sculptor and currently building a workshop for myself on a farm I just purchased .
I have been working in metal for 20 years now and have worked all over the world with my craft .
I have experience in bronze casting and metalwork ( my skills are self taught )
I have made movie props , furniture and sculptures mainly and here is a few examples


More of my work can be viewed on deviantart - http://shanti1971.deviantart.com/
I am currently making a new forge so am very open to ideas on forced air coal forges made from brick ( want an old school look )
Anyways hope I can contribute towards this site
Keep well and keep creating
Derek
