Apprenticeship

Hi ya'll, My name is Cody, and while I'm not a member of the guild...at least not yet anyways, I do want to restart my apprenticeship with someone who is willing to teach me when I move back to Georgia. I get out of the Marine Corps in December, and will be moving back to the Buford area (NE of Atlanta). I learned a lot under Alan Folts up in NC by just making two knives, but I want to continue learning and perfecting my knife making skills. I learned the stock removal side, and while I have been curious about forming the blade with hammer and anvil, I would like to continue with stock removal for right now. If anyone is willing to help me, or put me in contact with someone who would be willing to help me, I would consider it an honor. I am more than willing to do the grunge work of cleaning the shop and so forth, and I will definitely pay for my own materials, but I have the disease fo wanting to make knives, and I have to keep feeding it! Thanks.

I offer apprenticeships also. I'm in Sugar Hill. Scott is a more accomplished maker though, and is worth the drive.
