Maintaining the library is not bad
The group owns two duplicators that can make 5 copies at a time.
When one DVD gets down to 0 or 1 I plug in the machine and make copies for and hour or so.
I have started editing the new footage which can be time consuming.
The library sells over 1000 disks a year.
I have fun going to about 10 conferences a year
I dont get paid am just a volunteer which helps to keep the cost down.
I send out orders priority mail because it is easy and they provide the box.
Helps to keep the small town post office open. Population under 500
As Frosty said I may not do a lot of blacksmithing but I have watched a whole lot of it. Filmed too many that will never smith again. For a while it seemed like you did not want me to film as withn a few months they were dead but that has passed. No one has died for a few years after me filming.
Just to make sure last weekend I taught a copper class and did not film it.

Not much has followed me home lately other than when I went east to watch Clifton Ralph I did get a nice Aermore Model T exhaust whistle for 2 hundred pennies.
Am down to only 7 power hammers and 4 treadle hammers.
Have most of the parts to build a tire hammer but no time.
