Shauna,

	I have followed this group since it started and to answer your 
question .. Yes to all of the above. It seems like any question involving
metal can be asked here. We have had questions ranging from forgeing to name
that antique tool. If you would like, drop me a note and I will send you a 
collected set of notes. trimmed but most of them.
