Thank You!
Marc and Jaroslav, thank you for your welcome. Long ago I learned that if I really wanted to learn something, I was able. Developing skills based on that learning can be another matter, but if one never attempts the skills will never be developed. Probably my largest obstacle is my self-expectation. It is very hard for me to create something only to have unsatisfactory results. I have said for many years that I am not a woodworker, even my sawdust is not straight. I understand it is a matter of developing patience, having high standards for each small part of a job and proper execution and being willing to redo/remake when necessary.
I marvel at the high level of craftsmanship I see on AMS. But certainly they came through years of development, trial and error.
I think it would be appropriate for me to buy a few square feet of metal and start on small and simple shapes and projects. I like the idea of hockey pucks and steel balls.
