JWB:

It took you 10 hours to hammer out 17? Man you are working too hard/long..It takes me like 15 minutes each using my 25# LG and a 8 lb hammer..(less now since I am using Julius.).. and that includes profiling and heat treating. Grinding takes like 5 minutes tops..then again I do have a rather "aggressive" grinder and I tend to really do a lot more shaping with the hammer than most so that cuts down the grind time as well...

These should go really quick...at least they do for me..
