  1. don't sweat it. i've been tinkering for almost 3 years and most of my projects can still be described as" embarrassingly bad".
  2. I am 6' 4'' and growing. I am currently in a 29x36, (was 28x36). I wear wrangler cowboy cuts. check amazon, they have more in odd sizes than a store would.
  3. looks like a steal. buy it and buy it fast.
  4. super nice job. i envy your symmetry.
  5. the wee brass one is most likely a salesmans sample not a jeweler's anvil. would make a neat little paperweight.
  6. yup. dragon blood does well if you have a jar of it handy.
  7. i'll see if i can get some today. officially dubbed chico and harpo.
  8. 2 more shop cats followed me home. just what i needed. more cats.
  9. to paraphrase what TP said, you don't need to do anything. keeping it dry is the best thing you can do. anything else is essentially a waste of time at best.
  10. those horseshoes look suspiciously like your equine roller skates, Das.
  11. I am 6'5 and change in my boots, so i have to watch my head even when i am not wearing a hat. needless to say i have had my share of head bonkers.
  12. my first was 10x10 with no walls, dirt floor. my second was 16x14 with 3 walls, gravel floor. my third and current one is 25x45 with 4 walls, concrete floor, and insulation. Neither of my first shops were at all bad for the amount of equipment i had at the time, but as your skills grow, your tooling grows, and it sure is nice to have more space. as a general rule, i think bigger is better. i have never heard of anyone complaining of too much shop space.
  13. I can't get enough of your work and this one is my favorite so far. Super unique. keep um comin.
  14. nice work. the top one looks like my blue heeler. what breed was tiger?
  15. sweet job for a firsty. Welcome to the world of smithing!
  16. nope. it was actually a kiddy pool in our living room it a drafty old stone farmhouse in PA.
