I'm all packed, see you all Friday morning.

Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and maybe some new ones. Keen to see the press in action again. Ian

Thanks for the heads up Andrew, unfortunately the Saturday is definitely out and I can't confirm that Sunday will be ok, I will have to see how I'm travelling on the day. Ian

Will hammer guards be supplied Phil, or will we have to bring our own? You might want to consider an arm governor as well,, to limit the swing.

Ok, fair enough, let's get back to the subject at hand. How are preparations for Get Hammered going? I see Moony is getting some "toys" ready.

Sounds great Moony, looking forward to it.

Yeah, done that with several topics, never seems to work so I gave up doing it.

I have one of our old computers set up to listen to music and watch demo DVDs. As to what music, well, I was a 70s teenager so listened to Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd etc, but my music tastes have been pretty progressive over the years,. Anything from Blues, Reggae, Ska, Grunge,. Metal, New Wave pretty much most things except Country and Pop. I'm currently listening to Punk and Hardcore, Alternative Metal and Drum and Bass in the workshop.

Disappointed I'm not able to make it to this event, my youngest daughter lives about 10mins from there so I would have had a place to stay as well. I best pull my finger out and get membership organised and keep an eye out for future events. Hope you all have a great weekend and if I don't see you beforehand I'll catch you at Get Hammered Ian

Here is my newly built gas forge, made from a forklift gas cylinder. Still to come are a hinged door, stock support and a removable internal wall so I can use just one burner. It can evenly heat stock up to 56cm long so it will be great for one heat bending.

Unable to make it, looks like I'm missing a good event, will have to try for next year. Looks like Phil has started a hat wearing trend, I will have to keep an eye out for a "bowler" ;) Ian
