Blacksmith beginner checking in

[Hammerblade]

Hi all, happy to join the group. I just picked up blacksmithing as a hobby. So far, I've mostly done simple stuff like brackets and tools. I'm looking forward to getting some tips and ideas from the community.

Welcome! I started with simple tools, just trying to hit right each time. Those first projects made me confident enough to try bigger things. Showing what you're doing here is the way to go.

Hey, happy to have you! I started with just hooks and chisels. They were nothing fancy, but they got the job done. I'll share some advice to help you get better.
