Ferris Hardy Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Hello, I am new to blacksmithing and live and work in and around Galena, IL in the very NW corner of the state. We have a great working blacksmith museum in the city, and I'm happy to be involved. I hope to acquire blacksmithing knowledge, skills, and tools and become a fine smith someday. It's nice to have this online community. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Welcome aboard Ferris, glad to have ya. Are you a volunteer at the museum? It's an excellent way to get access to the tools, equipment and hopefully expert instruction for the investment of time. You've picked a craft with no upper limit to skill. Best of all it's just plain fun playing with fire and hitting things. Frosty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
