  • Everything about this three-part video was excellence, personified. The setting was beautifully established, the theme reverently given, the plan was offered with well-thought-out insight, and the work performed represented obviously a labor of love from the heart and soul of both Alan and Katherine. Having worked with metals myself, although certainly limited in the artistic sense, I am convinced I could duplicate everything that was shown/taught/prescribed/honore­d/demonstrated in this work.

  • One of the best videos I have seen on You tube. The production was Cinematic, Entertaining, and Informative. Yes, this could have been just a how to, but it was that and so much more. You can sleep in a tent or a palace, and these videos were a palace. Thank you!
