Happy New Year,

Yes, the Fairgrounds at Longview Washington is where 'Home Base' is.

There are a huge amount of the members, in the Puget Sound area. I know there are members in the Everett area. 

Paul Thorne lives just south of Anacortes. He works from his shop at home.  He also teaches classes. VERY easy to talk to!! He is trying to retire, but I don't know if it is working.

 Silas Maddox is one of the directors, he lives in Sedro Wooley.

David Lisch is south of Seattle. Dave and his wife Andre work together, Dave likes doing knives, that is their business. They have get togethers at their Shop, sometimes.

Thanks, Neil Gustafson

Thank you. I had no idea.

The burner will completely change when it is installed into a Forge body. Keep your lessons regarding what works and what doesn't work, written in a note book. You will want to recollect thoughts at a later date,

Thank you. I will make sure I keep a notebook for all this stuff.  When I looked at the NWBA site it looked like everything was way down south. Plus some groups in the Tri Cities and Spokane.  

Frosty, I was thinking that I would need to finish tuning in the forge.  Thank you for confirming it and letting me know I don't need to mess with it anymore until then. 

I can't wait to get the rest of the stuff so I can start hammering on some metal.

Hello everyone. I've been lurking around absorbing as much info as I can on building my first forge. I got the Frosty T Burner built yesterday. I think I have it tuned pretty well. I have the innerds for the forge on the way thanks to Glenn.

Here are a couple photos of the burner on action and what it will be going into.
