Interesting Jerry, some of the "old" crafts are returning here. Most of the old shoe-makers have gone, but some of the younger set seem to be fascinated by what the old-timers did and are taking it on themselves. Scissor and tool sharpeners are working out of vans and contact by social media, so that's a good mix for today. Many of the old tools for particular crafts have become very expensive as the new wave of crafts-people fight the "collectibles" folks for them. I still use the old forge for custom knife blades and bending heavy metal, although my forge welding has gone to crap - not enough practice I guess.
