My name is William L. Howard, Bill for short, and I have made my living as a Metalsmith for the last 40 years. I am considered a master goldsmith by those who care about such things and I also engrave, sculpt, mint, cast, forge, make prototypes, teach, consult, appraise, weld, do seminars and most anything else which is legal, fun, informative and earns fair wages. I live in Stoughton, Wisconsin where I operate my business and school and do all the usual stuff.
