Default Hello from Dayton

I am one here to excel my skills in a craft that is not my full time job, but is very rewarding to me. I am a high level knowledge worker. Being in that world where most things now are all based on 1s and 0s. I find it nice to come home, and build physical stuff.

I used to just do mechanical things, and minor body work. It is now time for me to spread my wings a bit and learn some new stuff. Learning is hard work, can't wait to get my hands a bit dirty, and shape some metal.

Welcome to the forum from a fellow Ohioan. And, as a someone that spends a lot of time with 1's and 0's, I completely agree about working on something physical. It is very rewarding and relaxing to work on something with your hands after a day in an office.

Stephen,

Welcome to the forum. I'm just a few miles south of Dayton. Liberty Twp. to be exact. Enjoy the craft.
