Hello, my name is harry and im looking for advice on a possible career in the blacksmithing world.
At this moment Im in the Army and currently traded as a blacksmith, but due to other commitments I rarely get to touch my trade. But I have aquired a pretty much a full workshop but got no where to use any of my equpiment so it just sits in my shed!!
Basically Im on the lastest redunancy list and i wish to achieve a career Blacksmithing, either with my own workshop or with a established workshop. I wouldnt be leaving the army (if i do get made redunant in june/july time) until june/july 2014 but i would be given more time off and resettlement money to do courses. To that end i would like to go to a workshop and learn from a fulltime smith, so I would be hopeing to gain more experiance with. I would be happy to work for free and wouldnt ask for any money until i finally leave the army or good enough!
Ive got pictures of the work ive done if anyone wishes to see them
Any advice or links would be very apprecianted
Cheers x
Also the area I looking to operate will be the south east, London and east England. But still willing to travel elsewhere in the country.
