What would be effay for a blacksmithing or a skilled labor job? I'm currently in school for blacksmithing and as much as I love suits my soon to be profession make wearing a suit a little hard.

Get the hell out of here, if you're using blacksmith learning for "art" you need to get some irl perspective with a side order of shut the fuck up and a desert called wake the fuck up.

Blacksmith me my iphone11 then we'll talk champ

That's sick OP. I'm an HVAC tech and our shop actually uses blacksmiths that are also ferriers.
There are a lot of horses around so they make a living doing both.
I'm gonna post a few pics of what I'd wear.
These boots are similar to mine except I have omega CSA certified boots. Testing live electrical and what not.

The ferriers use carhartt aprons like this, they literally last forever and get a rugged look with use. You should be able to find some stylized saftey glasses online too... pretty easy for those.

Don't listen to this. You can find practical applications for blacksmithing to fund your art, and many of those practical applications you might consider as your artistic outlets.

Demand is on the rise for quality handmade items produced through more traditional methods.

I knew a metalworker who would make props for movies and ornate beautiful gates for homes. Those clients would fund his passion projects, which he could then sell for decent $ since he could hold out for good offers.

Yo nig nog im planning on being a gun Smith. First I'll shoe horses till I get something set up and do blacksmithing in on the side. I'm not retarded like you who thinks they can understand someone from very few words. Maybe I'll do art maybe.

I assume it's bait, but blacksmith are actually needed. At least for quality assurance in production involving metals if it's automised. I need quality stuff in everyday life while photographers and industrial designers are literally useless jobs.
