Hello everyone,
Cyrille, here, from Belgium !
I recently joined the ABS after a few years of blacksmithing at Ostiches, Belgium.
I took the ABS training last year and passed the end of week exam, loved it, apart from the part when my handle was making horrible sounds while I was bending my blade <img src=' http://www.americanbladesmith.com/ipboard/public/style_emoticons//smile.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
As a computer scientist, I haven't the feeling of accomplishing "concrete" stuff, so I had to start something new.
So now, every wednesday and saturday, I take my car and drive an hour from my house to Ostiches, where I can practice with friends there.
I'm very happy to join the ABS family !
Cheers
Cyrille
PS : If you want to see some of my work, I now have a blog (in french, sorry, but you can enjoy the pictures) : https://blog.cydit.eu

Welcome to the ABS and the forum Cyrille. It is good to have another smith from Belgium. You have some great smiths over there. It is good to have you here.
