  1. .After having my post in "Ironworks as toys" response deleted.

    If I recall, I said no bad words, made no flames to anyone, and (trust me) I've HEARD worse said in church.

    It was a simple and clean adult conversation that didnt warrant getting locked.


    Count me out of this site for any future dealings. Glenn you can delete my account

  2. Good Gravy :roll:


    That sums it up well.

    I had a local here aske me to make a steel gate for him. Nothing fancy, just something rustic looking. It took me about a day to complete and he offered to pay me $200,000 yen (a little under $2000).

    I gladly made his gate

    It's called Supply and Demand. If someone want a stout 8 foot tall birdcage looking thingy to put their partner in, and they're willing to pay good money for it, then I'm gonna make it for them.


    Just my 2 cents worth

  3. I'm currently stationed in Okinawa in the AF (Getting ready to retire in 5 years).

    AS far as rasps go, I only use Belotta Hoof Rasps. THey forge well and will quench in water. If I cant find used one I'll pay the $20 and buy a new one.

    I make alot of camp irons and such and sell them at a local swap meet. It's designed to sell your stuff to the Japanese. They really eat stuff like fire irons up, paying whatever you ask for it. I had made a steel rose (took me about a half hour and about $2 in materials) that I was using at a paper weight. A local came up and asked how much, which I told him it wasnt for sale. He then made an offer of 10,000 yen (Roughly $100 USD) so I parted with it.




    Thanks for the welcome


    Bob :)
