New guy in North Alabama

[hb_newton]

Been lurking here a while (there is a lot to read). I have always been interested in shaping metal, but never had the tools or a good source of knowledge to get started. Now that I have found a great source for information (thanks to all), it is time to start gathering the tools and putting them to use.

Thanks to Kerry Pinkerton for the warm welcome to the site and for giving me the nickel tour of his shop tonight, I really appreciated it.
