>>6170210In welding? Well, started in High School. But most places will do training if they need you to do so. As for blacksmithing, quite a bit. Luckily I have welding and mechanical skills in my background so I can make most of the stuff I need. Starting out making art, then started building race cars, went to working on cars, and now I build trains. So yeah, been an interesting ride. Getting really back into the art now with blacksmithing and jewelry, plus scrap art. Lots of money in tools and equipment. Lost of fun though! Have at it.
