Michael’s Answer

Blacksmithing is completely different than welding but if u do get into welding for it I suggest mig welding and Tig welding and practice,practice,practice on makeing blades and shields it takes a long time to learn those kind of skills

Michael recommends the following next steps:

Get tips from welders
Talk to a ferrior (horse shoe maker)
Volunteer to work under them
Show up on time if they take u on
Never be late
