rustyshackleford Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 http://www.iforgeiron.com/forum/f20/show-us-your-location-4252/ I had the same idea! Quote

Sam Falzone Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 what about a general idea of the area you come from, so any new smiths or whatever could possibly find a mentor, im in the owen sound area myself Hi Canuk If you check out the information in the upper right hand corner of any post you can see the poster's location. Mine says I'm in Hamilton Ontario, so any smiths in the Hamilton area can email me privately and we can talk. I see yours just says ontario canada - think about changing that to something like Owen Sound, Ontario so people have a better idea of where in Ontario you're at. Also, don't be afraid to politely suggest to new posters to include their location in their member profile - alot of people skip this part. One of the key purposes of IFI is to hopefully get in touch with other smiths that are local to you and share skills and knowledge. Sorry you're so far away Canuk, but maybe we'll meet up at an OABA meeting. Keep hammerin'. Sam Quote

civilwarblacksmith Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 I tried adding my info to the blacksmith Location that Glenn posted and it would not let me. Quote
Glenn Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Reb, the map is updated manually usually daily. You should show up now. Quote
