August 25, 200916 yr hi guys, im alex. i live in the north east of england and am about to complete my diploma in fab & weld. i have been looking around this site for a while as a guest and i now want to start working with more traditional techniques of metal working, a lot of my previous experience has invloved power beam techniques and other more modern production methods.
August 25, 200916 yr Howdy from East TEXAS!! and welcome to IFI! Glad you joined up. Congrats on your completion of you education....really it should only be the begining of you education! Feel free to chime in when you can. As you have found out there are tons of info to soak up here and nearly that many photos to drool over. Once again, welcome.
August 25, 200916 yr Welcome aboard Alex, glad to have you. Being a long time science fiction reader and occasional dabbler at writing the words, "power beam techniques" bring fond visions to my minds eye. Heck, it could turn into a short story. Anyway, as Thomas says the learning just keeps happening as long as you keep doing. Blacksmithing is a wonderful alternative to high precision modern metal work. A wonderful way to relax while getting to know iron and steel in a much more intimate manner than a machine or fab shop can provide. Frosty
