blacksmithuk Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi everyone, just like to introduce myself. My name is Simon from Dorset in the UK. I am a professional Smith and a teacher of forgework. I was introduced to this site by a colleague in the business and will use this a lot for educational and problem solving/advice purposes. I am also the webmaster for the National Blacksmiths Competition Committee who organise the National Blacksmithing Competition held here in the UK over several different agricultural shows throughout the year. Look at the site National Blacksmiths Competition for a better explanation. The competition is open to anyone to enter, although Smiths from outside of UK cannot become national Champion, but that doesn't stop anyone from winning prize money. There are also some pictures of the sort of pieces that are winning prizes. Here's to a long association. simon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
