Andrew Alexander is funny, compelling and full of great stories with excellent flair. Falling in love with forging, Andrew started collecting tools and has become one of the most knowledgable facilitators of restored metalworking equipment in the United States. We had a great conversation about some of his adventures buying metal shops, crossing boarders and his greatest purchase. We compared Culinary school stories, talked about the future in an American made Power hammer company and the potential for Television shows. Andrew rules and the time flied and I can’t wait to have him on again. Thanks again AA you’re the man- GF
