[TheForge] how to pound metal

Fri Apr 4 00:46:00 2003

Jon:  Hello!  My name is Grant Marcoux and I'm a full-time smith and
smithing instructor in  the SF Bay Area and a CBA member as well.  Welcome
to the craft to you and your son.

Yes, the Tujunga shop is closed and the closest to you is the CBA Orange
County affiliate in the Discovery Museum in Santa Ana, CA.

The point of contact for that is Mr. Bob Cooper at (714) 779-7878.

I'm sure there are plenty of helpful folks down there, but if I can be of
help, please contact me.

                                    Grant Marcoux
