If ya've ever put together a billet using duct tape. (p.s. takes a loooonng billet.)

If you have trouble telling your scrap pile from your auto parts pile.

If you've ever (without stopping forging) used hot iron to burn out wasps nests or carpenter bees. (three times today, btw)

If you know enough to take offense when your wife says your coal fire smells like chitlins cooking.

....if SWAT teams of BATF agents have descended on your rural smithy because the overflights see the heat source from your propane forge as a still. (True story: guy in MO was making maple syrup in a shed and got raided.)  

 

....if you have disguised your moonshine still as the steam boiler for your line shaft drive in your shop. And they missed it. :rolleyes:

 

....if you have traded your moonshine for anvils and vises.

​I can trade my shone for those???
