    There are numerous trade magazines which should whet the appetite of
    any trade centric metalsmiths or just centrists of metalsmithing in
    general who make so called practical work, like myself. Metalsmith
    Magazine and SNAG itself are a welcome haven for me to escape the
    practicality of my everyday existance. It is just one magazine and
    point of view of many. I think the question about the one
    metalsmithing magazine to view is counter to any artist's or
    craftsperson's being. One thing I think we all share ,and I feel this
    is very true of anyone  who would actually not just read Orchid but
    post on Orchid, is a desire to learn all we can about metalsmithing.
    To learn technique, to ask a really good question that would stump
    Orchid or designing issues are all things we , Orchidians, aspire to
    which simply stated can be called a quest for knowledge. Knowledge
    from one source or one point of view is not knowledge at all.
    Knowledge does not live in vacuum and is only usefull to anyone when
    viewed as being realtive, that is to say when compared with other
    knowledge. So Metalsmith Magazine should be enjoyed for what it is,
    one point of view of a wonderfull spectrum.
