  • Restoring the 2000 lb. Chambersburg with Pat Quinn

    Pat Quinn is the Executive Director of Center for Metal Arts in Johnstown PA, the premier institution for Forging education. I was very excited to talk about the amazing new large scale forged sculpture built during the Collaborative Sculpture Workshop, especially as its construction depended on the restoration of the 2000 lb. Chambersburg self contained hammer. After an amazing fundraiser and restoration of the hammer Pat realized something was terrifyingly wrong. The story of this restoration turned into an odyssey and adds another layer to the history of Center for Metal Arts. Many thanks to Pat for telling this story, and he’ll be back soon!

  • Remembering 9/11 - 25th Anniversary

    This was a very special episode remembering the 25th anniversary of 9/11 with 2 of my closest friends. Both Eric and Henrik had different experiences that day with incredible and harrowing stories. One thing they both came to the same conclusions to was the indomitable human spirit that New Yorkers and Americans had at that time - Selflessness, generosity , bravery, helpfulness, courageousness and compassion. Even as we recounted one of the worst days of our lives, we looked towards the good in humanity and hopefully one day we can get back there. 


    Many thanks to Eric and Henrik for your generosity, flexibility and friendship. I can’t thank you both enough. Many thanks- GF

  • Karl Frentz Returns!

    My guy Karl Frentz is the Digital Marketing Specialist for Tormek USA and has become a great friend. Last November Karl came to the shop and filmed an awesome short documentary about Feder Knives and Tormek. It was such an amazing process and we talked about what it took to put it all together. Karl has incredible success with social media for Tormek and imparts a lot of nuanced points that are definitely helpful. Then we finished off talking NBA and what the latest shake up in the east could mean. Karl’s my guy and i love catching up with him, he’ll be back.

  • Nick Anderson: Garaging it in the Kiln

    Nick Anderson of Nanda Knives is back after way too long. Nick is a blacksmith with a history as a glass Artist. 2 years ago we talked about his early days making glass objects to sell in school and how Nick wanted to incorporate glass into his knife handles. Recently he just started making glass handles and we talked this exciting direction plus his new collaborations with Flame work Artist Eusheen Goines. The glass community is very involved with collaborations and it looks like Nick has just opened him up to a lot of wonderful new opportunities. Great conversation as always. Nick will be back sooner rather than later. Many thanks. GF

  • Lila Get’s Triggered

    My daughter Lila is back from her semester abroad in Japan! We caught up about the experience and some of the stories were hilarious and you can tell where some of her temperament comes from…haha my bad. She’s doing great and getting excited for her senior year in college. Hopefully she can relax for the last few weeks of summer and lock in! Always great catching up and it was a fun time.
