jessedesmithy

I use to work in the auto body shop of my community college. while my boss/teacher was using a 1 1/2 inch piece of bar stock to push out a dent inside of a wheel well on a car he hit it with a glancing blow and sent a thorn sized piece of shrapnel six feet away, right into my face just below my cheekbone. I got "shrapnel acne" once and have had a healthy fear of eye damage ever since.

a few days ago at the resale shop i got a nice old pickax and a double faced sledge hammer for about 4 bucks a piece along with some old worn out cement drilling bits for a dollar fifty for four of them. and three old brass and one copper gas knobs from i guess a furnace. tomorrow i plan to hunt down an old truck rotor for the makings of a portable forge.

hello, my name is jesse, i am 22 years old. i live in north east colorado on whats called the frontrange, i am in college for metalsmithing/jewelry making. i am in need of a "true" anvil, and i wonder if anyone knows a good farrier supply store in my area? thank you and have a great day. jesse

sorry, just after posting my question i read the answer on another thread...
