BRENT DESROCHES

Blacksmith

Rusty Nail Art

​

I Grew up in the Village of Bristol, now Town of Florenceville-Bristol. I Currently live in East Glassville (out towards Juniper). The Railroad used to run right beside the house in Bristol and I had always walked the track and was picking up railroad spikes even back then, just never thought of doing anything with them until I had finished my construction career but was still wanting to keep busy in my shop. After making my first piece and then having to make more for family members who wanted them, It just seemed to keep evolving. Now, the more I do, the more I think up to do, or people ask for special ones. It’s really satisfying to have someone take a piece and tell you it’s perfect, just what they were looking for!
