    My fiance is a rod buster and I've gained a real understanding on the physical labor & why he's so 😴 I promise from seeing this I appreciate everything so much more and will make home life as easy as possible for him now 🙂

    There's something about ironworkers that gets me all worked up...oh, yeah; They get to build massive structures, mold and fabricate complicated shapes. They work up high and down low, next to clouds and in the depths of the sea.

No drinkin, smokin, etc. I powerlift and am pretty strong, so why not give it a shot! All the best! Any advice on schools to look into or locals to join? Thanks!
