    Default Hey folks

    I'm Ben(smokey) or (maverick) new to the metalwork community. I've been collecting gear for a while now and I have my welder selected. Looking to jump in, this is something that has been on my list for most of my life (making stuff with metal, welding, repairs, etc) so it's exciting. See you around. SMB
