Woodsmoke

 My awesome brother and my sister in-law brought around my bday presents. Very lucky, just have to get the forge built and get started proper.

Hi folks,

Name is Craig, im from the North of Scotland.

Just been biten by the blacksmithing bug. After I get a bit of experience under my belt I would like to make practical pieces as well as tools and mabey a few decorative bits.

I have a pile of scrap waiting to made into a  coal/coke forge of some kind ( still undecided what type). That will be my first step on hopefully a long and rewarding journey.

I look forward to learning from you all( you guys certainly know your stuff) and mabey able to contribute in time.

Right of to read as many files as I can.

Thanks and all the best

Craig
