Default Diving in

Howdy! I'm Reuben.
I thought I had my sculpture niche figured out, but . . . . I have too many interests and too little time.
I used to make things like this


But then I made two little boys.
Now I'm full-time dad.

I want to delve into making smaller pieces, and everything I dream up requires better forming techniques. I've already ordered David Gardiner's DVD. And I'm anxious to take a TinmanTech or Wray Schelin class. Just gotta figure out how to squeeze it in between preschool and nap times.

Hope I can add something, but I can already tell I'll learn a few things!

Welcome from another North Carolinian.

Lots of good information here.

Hope sometime in the future we can have a Metal meet in NC.

Dave
