I forgot to mention I am in North West Missouri a little east of St Joseph. In regards to tools, I imagine you would need to be careful about what you would make them from as well as keep some sort of liability insurance as well? 

Greetings all,

I am amassing a good pile of steel at the forge and I am needing some good inspiration as to what to do with it. I have often wondered since I started learning how to forge, what kind of forging projects are people really interested in and also, how do most of you sell your work? I already know about E-Bay, it almost seems to me that it is becoming a world wide online Flea market. If it isn't cheap, people don't seem to be interested. :( However, I have wondered if places like Etsy.com and craigslist are worth looking at as well? I should state while I am thinking about it that I am not trying to make a living at my forge. I am a welder for a living and I shoe horses on the side when I have the extra time. Any help on the subject would be greatly appreciated.  

Thanks

hildenmw,

You say that you sell stuff on Etsy... Is it worth your time spent? Do you sell much on Etsy? I have seen the website and thought about selling on it, was just wondering if it would be worth the time.

Thanks
