MLMartin Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Hello everyone, I have found the NYSDBA group and if I can I hope to make the next meeting. But I was wondering if there is anyone around this area that likes to light the forge up on the weekends and forge for fun and wouldn't mind some one hanging out some time. I'm in town for a summer job and just looking to do a little forging or metal work. I am glad to swing a sledge hammer! Mackenzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swamptroll Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Look into the Genesee forge group and the Niagara group of NYSDB one meets the second Sunday and the other meets the 3rd Saturday of the month check out the web site. There should be a couple that are willing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Sculpture Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 What's the matter MAC you not going to get enough hammer time at your summer job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divermike Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Hey welcome.... we meet in Marion, about 25 minutes east of rochacha, every 3rd saturday. I'm starting a new job so my extra forging time is being a bit limited, but if you make the meeting, we can talk about times to get some extra hammerin in!!

MLMartin Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Sounds nice, haha no Mr Dillon, no forging at all in the new shop. no hammers running. pretty much weld and grind only. Hopefully ill see a forge lit and some hot work done once this summer but I'm not holding my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Sculpture Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 I would stick my nose in the business side of things around there if your not doing the physical stuff, be sure and take notes and report back here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MLMartin Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 I sure will try, I know half the work of any shop is just business work and I half lots to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
