Hello Mr. Anderson,

Firstly, allow me to welcome you to the forum, we always enjoy meeting new members.
And now please allow me to thank you for the great work you are doing with the younger generation. Too often this younger generation loses interest in trades, arts, skills and even hobbies of the previous generation and having visited your website I wanted to thank you for keeping our skills/hobby alive in the minds of these young adults.
I believe everyone here will agree that there are times that we see ourselves as a dying breed, not to be followed by a younger generation, but through efforts like yours and others, I believe we can rest assured that there will be interest in this hobby for some time to come....not only by your students but perhaps by their children as well a little bit further in the future.
I do wish to take this opportunity to invite you to pass this website along to all of your pupils in an effort to give them the chance to see what a group of people sharing common interests are capable of achieving. We dont "judge" here, the effort put forth in this hobby by our members is recognized and appreciated by one and all and we welcome all people with similar interests.
Anyway, I have rambled on long enough, but again, I do wish to express a warm welcome to you and a thank you for your efforts.

Have a good day and we look forward to see more from you and hope to welcome some of your pupils as members.

Greg aka GEEDUBBYA (GW)
