Hi all,
I stumbled across this message board while searching for information on a tubing bender.
I'm pretty much an absolute beginning metal worker. I've always been fascinated by blacksmithing and welding and have finally started taking the steps to learn those arts.
As the screen name implies, I'm a firefighter in SoCal. So I've been exposed to cutting with O/A, Arcair, saws, Petrogens, but not to putting stuff back together. Before becoming a firefighter I was a mechanic, so I have a little exposure to real work.
I can't guarantee I'll be the most active participant. I follow quite a few boards and mostly read and learn, but here I am.
