October 12, 200916 yr Hi, All. I'm new to the blacksmithing art and have joined your fair group to get more info. I've participated in one hammer-in and loved the experience. I'm looking to build a gas forge soon and acquire some tools. My wife is also interested in learning so we'll see where we go from here. Thanks for the great forum.~Eric

October 12, 200916 yr Author Thanks for the welcomes. I've already joined the Northeast Blacksmiths and attended a hammer in there. I don't think there is a link here so here it is. http://www.northeastblacksmiths.org/ Edited October 12, 200916 yr by ofafeather

October 12, 200916 yr Author Welcome from another New Yorker. I'm in Pleasant Valley. Your welcome to come see my gas forge. I'm just beginning with blacksmithing but have been metal working for a few years now. Thanks, RcRacer. It's nice to have another smith in the general area. I would like to see your forge at some point. I am looking at building my own soon. What's yours like?~Eric
