I would like to say to anyone that has not had a heat stroke to try your best not to. A person never gets over it. By all means stay hyderated, and if you start to feel weak, get off your feet and out of the sun. LeeRoy

This is what I have built. I used the top part of a 20# propane bottle, I made the first cut with a hacksaw. Cutting these bottles open is very dangerous. I used ideas from here and other web sites. LeeRoy

Being a newbe myself, I made a hold down today. It is made from a 1/2 inch rd stock, and is used in the pritchel hole in the anvil. LeeRoy

Have you seen these sites. KnifeDogs.com or British Blades.com They are both knifemaking sites. LeeRoy

Great site, thanks My son is into locks. I am going to send this site to him. LeeRoy

Frosty Thanks! I will try to make one the next time I light up my forge. LeeRoy

A newbe question, What is a good metal to make a triangular bell out of? I have been thinking about making a couple, but I don't know if a person needs a special metal for the nice clear ring that they can make. LeeRoy

Viny I like the way you have made your cabinets and hardware, they are tops. LeeRoy

Adrian, if you don't mind me asking. I am new to Smithing. What finnish did you use on the gates? LeeRoy

Sam Mercury is a heavy metal, and it is some of the causes of cancer amonge other things. IF YOU ARE GOING TO USE IT, PLEASE WEAR PROTECTION GEAR. IT CAN BE ABSORBED THROUGH THE SKIN. It is one of the things that people was trying to get out of the gound and streams, but now the light buld industrey is using it in the new save energy bulbs. Rember they was trying to get rid of flouresent light bulbs because of the mercury that they containd. The new energy savers has 4 times as much mercury in them as flouresents. Mercury is still used in prospecting. If you know of places that sell prospecting equipment, they might have some on hand. It is not very expencive. LeeRoy

Frosty Great find, now Deb can make a nice sweater for someone. LeeRoy

I would like to meet some of the Blacksmiths in the Las Vegas, Nevada area I am retired, and would like to learn about blacksmithing. LeeRoy

Frosty I like your improvements, I will most likely follow-up with them. LeeRoy

I needed to clear the workbench for a couple larger projects, so I built this lightweight grinder stand. Any comments welcome. Sorry about picture size, I will resize the next one. LeeRoy

John I like it, If it is O K, I will make one for a small gate that opens in to my back yard. LeeRoy

LRF That is a great candle stand. LeeRoy
