Ronnie Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hello all Not much to say other than I am new to smithing. Like I have no idea what I am doing . I have been working with metal most of my life welding, cutting, pipe bending and fitting. Just seem like a good direction to take now. Thanks teejay for pointing me in the direction for information and help. I mainly interested in forge welding and producing damascus knives.
