Tela are you mad at me?

[Tom]

Tela I know I suggested this metal smithing forum, and you have jumped in with both feet:) I just wonder if you are mad at me for lightening your wallet a bit:)(LOT)

I think this smithing bit a few other people than just you. Its a lot of fun to have found a rock and then turn it into a beautiful piece of jewelry

I have a friend at the rock club who has been doing this for over 35 years, and for that long he has ordered from Rio. To this day he still buys a tool whenever he buys materials from them. And looking back through my orders I see I am following in his foot steps LOL. Its actually a good way to get tools.

Of course I know you are not really mad at me, ummm are you:)

LOL! No, I'm not mad. Actually, I started to come around to smithing before I knew this board was started. It just happened to be good timing. Because of it and you guys, I was able to decide what torch to get.

Oh I know you are not mad at me, how could anyone get mad at me, just ask my wife:) I was just playing around, its still cool how well this forum took off.

I have learned a bunch from the metal heads. There is a lot of experience to learn from. Thanks.
It was a good idea to implement this subject Tom. Well done.
