Everything Mac Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hi guys, My name's Andy and I live is the south of England. I've been blacksmithing as a hobby for about 4-5 years now. I only just came across this site, though I've know about it for a while. I am glad that I did. I'm still very much a beginner and I look forward to learning a lot from you guys on here. Many thanks, All the best Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
