Hi from England

[dannytsg]

Hi all,

My name is Dan and I am from Manchester in England. I have recently joined here after coming back to smithing from a decent lay off and numerous house moves. I have made knives/axes and tools in years gone by and I am now in the process of setting up a forge and workshop in my garden again to get back to some hobby smithing.

I predominantly weaponsmith and make "tools of the trade" for a Viking reenactment group I have recently joined and have friends in. I also just really play around and use smithing as an outlet to channel my everyday frustrations through the hammer and turn them into a positive outcome with whatever I make.

Thanks

Welcome aboard Dan glad to have you. If you put your general location in the header we might remember where you live after we change threads. It's much more effective to have it in the header where we can find it without searching or asking.

Frosty The Lucky.
