sparkamp Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Gooday to all . I did blacksmithing at school 45 years ago and enjoyed it . Now that i have time to enjoy myself I thought i would join a forum and re-learn what i have forgotten . I still have to get some tools and anvil and make a forge , that will take a little time . Kind regards to all . Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The yanks are starting to take over this forum Seriously though, lots of info and help in this site. Start digging through the Getting Started/Lessons in Metalworking articles from the front page as a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted T Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Alan, AKA: sparkamp Welcome to I Forge Iron. You are now a part of us! Australian Blacksmiths are well represented here at IFI. In fact I feel some of them are corner stones of the site. I have no question that you will benefit from becoming a family member of the Blacksmiths, Farriers, Blade Smiths, Repousse Masters, and Metal Workers in general that you will find here. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you aware of the: Blacksmiths Association of Western Australia See the home page for more information: Look at right column for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
