I want to learn to make titanium jewelry?

Well, specifically hair sticks, but I have no idea how to start. I worked with pewter a long time ago – my dad and I used to make little pewter soldiers using a melt-and-pour technique. We tried lost wax casting with less than stellar results.

So where can I go to learn about metalworking/metalsmithing techniques and specifically about working with titanium? Please recommend any books, websites, or even classes in the Sacramento, CA area.

What is the name of the insurance company the GH & R foundry of dayton ohio used?

My Dad worked for this company and he lost all info in a house fire. His retirement benefits is what we are trying to find. He worked there in 1960′s through 1970′s. The company has been removed and is now named something else.
