I'm amazed at the work in a few old hand forged irons I have
So when I was offer the opertunity to make one for a local ranch I was excited. It's for barBQ so is just 2-1/2" in dia. I reduce the image to the appropriate size,
select materials, 1/8" X 1/2" and began to O/A weld up the 4R and circle, file and true up. Assemble with the mig and get ready to attach the handle 9hours later, when I saw what I did....
It was a full moon.
When I was filing my dog came in and stood under the vice and would not leave, very unusual, he must have known. I didn't have a clue (my wife's been telling me this for years).
Dyslexic?
Alzheimer's.. I'm not that old.
I'll keep this one as a reminder, and start a new one when time allows.
I can't believe I got so far before noticing.
Anyone have similar experience.
