Scott and Kathy Sibley work as a team.  She does most of the scrim work is my understanding.  Just can't beat their team work.

There's a book called "The Backyard Blacksmith" by a woman,last name Simms  fist name sounds like Lorie, not sure on the first name.  Good book though .  You can buy it at Kayne Sons  Blacksmith Depot in Candler NC.  About eight miles from Jim Chambers
