February 28, 200719 yr Hi all, Real name is David (Dave) Patty and I am from Weaver, AL. Been a tinker, electronics repair tech, and general handyman type as long as I care to remember. Got to know a fellow in the SCA who is into blacksmithing and it has renewed my interest. So I dug out my old (homemade) coal forge from the barn and am trying to get what few blacksmithing tools I have back together, repaired and new ones made. Just found this place last week and been going through the Blueprints section. Made it to the BP chat last night (2/27/07) and had a real good time. Thanks for a wonderful site! Dave
