Projects & advice for a new guy
I would suggest that you find a local group and become a member, There's alot of them out there that would welcome you.. On another note, Be sure and get you some safty glasses and put them to use.. Safty is very important, Make you some tongs, and then make more, Then learn heat treatment and make punches and chissels. then make more tongs.. lol.. One other thing,, Welcome to the Family...Tom

Safety glasses for forging...
I just wonder if the old boy can still see with that eye.. it sure reinforces the reason for safty Glasses...I reckon that piece could have went straight on thru and went into his brain and turned him into a Ghost...

anyone here raise chickens??
My wife had some chickens for awhile,, I built the chicken house then put up the fence so they could walk around outside, I also put fence over head so that the chicken hawks or foxes couldn't get to them. Laura had a lot of fun with them, We had a rooster that was a leg horn, and Laura loved that Rooster, she would go into the pen and he would get on her shoulder and she would pet him and Thought that she had her a good Pet.. I told a friend about her raising the chicken's and about the rooster,, He told me she better watch that Leg Horn, he said he had one and that joker got plum crazy,, Well Laura's pet grew up and sure enough he turned crazy and when you went into the pen he would try and get you.. One day the wife came in and Said the rooster tried to get her.. Well I sent the Terminater " our son" into the pen and he grabbed the Rooster and Rung his neck and While me and the boy was plucking the feather' and cleaning him the wife was getting the skillet ready... about a hour after the Rooster flew at the Wife we had him in the skellet.. .Nothing like good Fresh Chicken...LOL..

trying to make a Norfolk Latch
Thanks Jerry. Yes I lucked out and got me a good wife.. I thank the good Lord for her all the time. and believe this or not. But she was the answer to a prayer... LONG STORY.. I would love to live in Alaska, But the wife don't want no part of it.. I have planned before to visit there, But it'll never happen, Money is tight and seems like i can't get ahead.. But I reckon thats the American way..lol.. have you a good day..Tom
