Matthew Roy Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Hello from the great white north! Ive only been forging for about 3 months, but I am an apprentice Ironworker/ Welder with IW local 721 in Toronto, so I get to work with steel all day everyday! I'm looking forward to gaining some insight and knowledge from all of you experienced blacksmiths... and maybe hearing the odd joke or two. Thanks for letting me join your merry ranks! Take care out there! Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles R. Stevens Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Welcome to Glenn's front porch! Well acualy as we have spilled out into the yard and taken over the street it's more of a block party! You will find that smithing will teach you things about steel that your day job won't, it also brings skills and knowledge to your day job. Again welcome abourd, you will find the strait jackets on the right, meds on the left, only one thing, leave my crayons alone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHCC Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 And some of the jokes are very odd indeed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikedMck Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Hey Mathew, I'm an HVAC mechanic in Toronto with ua local 787, did you build a home forge? I just stumbled across this site a couple of months ago. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
