Ok, I'll bite. It is a very cool thread.

    I'm still a hobbyist, but I learn a lot from this forum, and the
    input of the pros here have given me a lot of confidence in
    advancing my skills. 

    Like a lot of people who have posted to this thread, I come from a
    technical background (one of those common threads that surprised
    me...). 

    I'm an electrician/electronic controls technician with 25+ years in
    the field. 

    I am a leather worker, for nearly as long, who branched into
    decorative metalwork, lapidary, and organic material carving to make
    the hardware for my leather pieces. I consider myself an amateur
    historian who focuses on pre-industrial processes in this area
    (Yeah, I'm a medieval re-enactor...) 

    One day, I'll feel comfortable enough to do more than the occasional
    commissioned pieces. Until then, I'll just keep plugging along.
