Default New metal working

Hello All,
My name is Alan. I'm new to metal working. I'm the owner/operator of Greener Pastures Construction in Virginia and I'm looking to add metal working to my skills. I'm proficient or expert with all other construction mediums so, this should be one of the last for me to become proficient with.

I also enjoy working on cars/trucks. History. Camping/Hiking/"prepping". Long walks in the park and romantic candle lit dinners.

Welcome Alan.

I did get a chuckle out of the Candle Lit dinners. I wanted to attend a workshop this past weekend, but couldn't do to business issues. Thankfully there is another one, I can attend, on February 12, 13, & 14th. Uh oh, I might need to build a dog house.
