Greetings to all involved in the forum,this is just quick post to introduce myself,as I am a new member,I live in the UK not far from Manchester,I have always been hugely impressed by the practical skills of man,how those practiced skills,along with at times only a few basic hand tools,can produce creations that to many are,' beyond belief ',the art of metalcraft is of course
of that category,I personally, am a novice,and am (even at my age) just starting out in the field of metalshaping,therefore my presence on the forum will be purely as a student,in saying that,if I feel I do have something that might be of value of course I will post it,forums of this nature are invaluable to the scholar,so I thank all of you in advance for your knowledge sharing,I look foward to it all,so I wish all a fantabulous festive time and a brillidocious new year.
