transplant Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Hi all, I'm excited to discover the IFI forums. I took my first blacksmithing course a year ago here in Manitoba and fell in love with the craft. It's so helpful to have a resource to come explore for answers that have already been posted and I'm eager to learn. Transplant is my handle as I moved to Canada a year ago from the US, Amy's the name. It's nice to join and learn from the experience of so many of you. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Welcome aboard Amy, glad to have you! Blacksmithing is an addictive craft, few things touch the soul like using humankind's oldest tools, fire and something to hit with coupled with our brains, thumbs and eyes to have our way with iron and steel the backbone of modern human civilization.
