			Hey guys,  
		
		
		
		
		
		
			24 years old here and I'm pretty much just a hobbyist welder, fabricator, artist, tinkerer or whatever you want to call it. I learned almost everything I know about metal through 4 years of high school metal shop, or by experimenting on my own. I'm always looking to learn more. I Grew up in Colorado, and I just recently finished up 4 years in the Army. My old shop teacher wanted to bust my head in after he found out I was going to join, and he was probably justified too.    Anyways, I'm off to school this fall, and right now I have no job. I'd rater build stuff and ride motorcycles for a few months before life starts again. Here is pic of one of my projects, I built this for my senior metals project in school. My mother told me to make a lamp that looked like a palm tree. I ran with it. ![]() ![]() And this is my current project, uh, I mean moneypit... ![]() Glad to be here, looks like a great site!
