|  Hi from Louisiana, 
			
			My name is Buddy Holmes and I have been beating on copper for a little over twenty years now. It's my full time business for the past 15 or so years. I mainly do hammered copper fountains, all sizes. Most of what I do is flora and fauna, a lot leaning to the area around here. I'm the webmaster for LAMA, Louisiana Metalsmiths Assoc (mainly blacksmiths, but some diversity there). I'm glad I found you folks. I'm sure I'll learn a lot. Buddy |

			Buddy, welcome and thanks for the introduction.  We have several members here that work in copper.  Took a look at your site and think your work is excellent.  If you get down on the Mississippi Gulf Coast let me know, I'll give you a shop tour.  Hope you find the site helpful and enjoyable.  Looking forward to seeing you post some of your work here.  Thanks for joining us.
