I'm just getting started learning metal work. Been a hobbyist woodworker most of my life and thought I'd add metal to the knowledge base. Became interested in melting metal, so I built a propane tank foundry. Then since they were similar, and heating and shaping metal expands the range of experience, I built a propane tank forge - still tweaking the burner on it. Now I'm in the early stages of building a forge press to work the hot metal with. I've been reading all I can about metalworking and blacksmithing. When I get my forge burner tuned and pick up my Gramp's old anvil this weekend, I'll start the real learning. Just wanted to say hello, ask a few questions and express my appreciation for all the info and knowledge everyone here shares. (questions will appear in the forge press area)
