    New to metal work. I collect, restore and (most importantly) use vintage cast iron cookware. Also enjoy working with stained glass and carving soapstone.

    My two kids take up a lot of my free time, but I wouldn't have it any other way!

    Wonderful job! :)

    Very, very nice! I've been looking for an idea for a shelf in my kitchen... think I just found one! Awesome!

    I have the two burner blacksmith model and love it. Go with the larger tank for sure though. I use a 60 lb and it will still freeze up when getting near empty. I recently had a small issue with my forge and Dennis was kind enough to replace the entire shell at no charge. A good guy who stands behind his products.

    Found this Dake benchtop screwpress in the back of my van when I got home today. I'll never tell how it got there...lol! It's tiny... only 21" across. Model P 10 according to the manufacturer plate. Not sure what I'll do with it but I'm bound to find something.

    These are great! Would love to see how you made them.

    I don't really pay a lot of attention to my anvil's appearance, but I have used this stuff on other things to prevent rust... Just use it on the sides though... wouldn't want to breath in the fumes when hot steel comes in contact.

    Here's a few tutorials on the electrolysis "how-to". ELECTROLYSIS

    You'll still need a large bath, but I'd go with electrolysis. You won't get it cleaner or lose any material and it's cheap.

    Looks like fun was had by all! I'd love it if someone around here (Ontario) offered a course like that. Thanks for posting!

    I really have no idea what to say except that I am sincerely sorry for what you and your wife are going through. I can't even imagine what I would do in your place. I still believe that there are more good people than bad out there, but the laws do need to be changed for those bad ones. Wishing you somehow find peace of mind through all of this.

    That's a slick design! Thanks for posting. :)

    Found this one locally... the table is 24"x30.5" and is super HEAVY! Top is 1" cast iron and I was told it came from a newspaper printing room.

    Now that is slick! When can I place an order??? :)

    Thanks Bob... just signed-up over there & waiting for my confirmation email. Just what I needed... another web forum to spend time at! I thought about using the bottom for dishing, but also thought it might make an interesting bell too. The bottom divot has some stamped numbers and letters in it, that I'd have to grind out first though. Guess I'll finish the first bell before starting another...lol! :)

    Thanks Phil... that's kinda what I suspected. I'll post more as things progress. BTW... I fixed the link... I think! :blink:
