However, it's also one of Blacksmithing's biggest benefits.  I've heard time
and again, that a professional smith won't come to a meeting because, he has
hungry mouths to feed, and doesn't have time for pleasantries.  So, the many
hobbiests who put forth their $$ for the memberships, and to volunteer their
time to the organizations, to keep them going; is a great benefit to all who
wield a hammer <G>.

Grover,
I didn't mean the hobbiest were the problem. B/S'ing will always need them. 
I just note that even in demo's,  the pros do it different.
Like Jeff told St. Francis, "I need to mig it, you don't have three kids to 
put through school". In reference to forge welding.

But isn't it nice to have a hobby that, at retirement, you CAN make money 
at.
Honey, it ain't a bass boat.
