Blacksmithing | Knife-makers | Welding Good morning all. The sort of spot I'm looking for is much like the smithy at the National Ornamental Museum. A metal shop that can do anything from custom motorcycle parts (with the help of the foreman, I made a rather nice stainless steel rack for a Honda scooter I had back in the day) to forging coat hooks, to casting aluminum, to making a fountain, to... I'm just looking for word of mouth shops anyone can recommend. I have been trolling the yellow pages, but cold calling or just showing up at a shop is a tad bit strange. Thanks ^_^ ![]() bulletmore, murderland

I think he works alone, but
I think he works alone, but you might ask David Hess for advice. He has been working in the Baltimore area for a long time, and knows a lot of people.
Good guy, great sculptor.

You could also check in with your local blacksmith group- in the case of Maryland, it would be the Mid-Atlantic Smiths-
