Where did you get you screen name?

[arcFlash]

I'm a professional geek but do a lot of DIY stuff and have a full woodshop (I make furnature)  but I was getting board with wood and wanted more mixed medium to add interest. Metal was the most obvious, with stone cutting a close second followed by glass blowing.

When I needed a name I wanted something simple and benign. I'd had bad names in the past (word plays and such) so I picked something topical in my life, welding, so arcFlash is was.

I almost picked "Bentonite" and "swarf"
