Resources for Metalworking Techniques

Picture
Over the past few years it seems that i've tried to get my hands on every book I can find regarding metalworking techniques. In the spirit of those who have willingly shared their knowledge with me, I  wanted to share some of my favorite books and metalworking websites with other metal artists who might be seeking techniques or simply sources of inspiration.
