Who we are
My name is Avery! (The Red haired one) and every since I was really little I always wanted to create something, but no medium ever seemed to fit what I wanted, I tried lots of things but soon, the passion and career I wanted found me. My dad gave me a hammer one day and I saw him watching a forging video online and I was starstuck, and ever since then I haven’t stopped trying!
I owe a lot to a ton of people for even having the ability to say I made it this far but one person has to be my Fiance, Several things with my shop I’ve been able to help sell with her guidance!
My first forge
Getting off the ground wasn’t a walk in the park either, and still isn’t. Example. My first forge was an orange can I stuffed with plaster. with a hole cut out for a camping torch and bolts for legs. It was rough and took forever to heat anything up but It was a good example is resourcefulness and being thrifty.
Even though I’m not yet at my end goal I was only ever able to get this far with a huge amount of help so, I think these people deserve to be here!
My Girlfriend: Elizabeth. Without her cool headed approach to forging and carefulness I’d have been a pile of ash right now!
My Father: Your guidance and creativity are unmatched, several of your ideas and suggestions have made this possible. and of course believing in me. without that known of this would have existed, and I hope to make you proud.
My Mother: Endless photos of the cats
My Grandparents: Thanks too you I have more tools and metal than I even know what to do with! So many things have been possible because of your givings!
To RCBA: For giving me the skills and know how to be able to succeed, I wish I could have stayed longer and given more back, but you all will forever be in my hearts
And thanks to you! for supporting me in this wonderful dream. GodBless
Special thanks!
What is my end goal?
To be able to support my family with this, to be able to forge a living for myself. and be able to teach others this dying art. I’m getting there, its a long road but I’m getting there and now you are part of that! Just by being here you are supporting that dream, It means the world to me, truley.
