David Robertson Artist Blacksmith
I devote a large part of my time to helping the blacksmithing community by teaching courses and supplying equipment. There are many articles on my website Ontario Artist Blacksmith that deals with metal work and smithing.
If on the other hand you are interested in courses I would suggest that you take a look at my Blacksmithing Courses Page. Although I have done some jewellry work in the past, most of my work is on a larger scale. The techniques are directly transferable, just a different scale.
