Hello, everyone! I am a teenaged metal-working hobbyist from Seward, Alaska. My great-grandfather, and later on, my grandfather, owned the main machine shop here. Though I never got to meet either of them, I have had the wonderful privilege to learn about and practice machining, welding, and forging with many of their tools. Someday, I would like to have my own machine shop where I can turn my hobbies into my profession, all the while keeping the family tradition alive. Thanks in advance for all the great information I will undoubtably receive here.
