  1. Finally got some tongs able to handle a jack hammer bit. Got started on my first hardy cut off. Lots of fun and fits real good
  2. I have. Everyone is real friendly and its a great place to meet our brethren. They get a good crowd and normally have several forges - anvils going. They encourage the kids and newbies to give it a try which I like I need to join the group and keep forgetting. I will tonite - thanks for the reminder and maybe see you at the next one
  3. Looks like a good one b. Here in the SOAZ that would go $400-500 easy.
  4. Nice ones picker Mr. Anvil can you share a picture if your favorite cross pien thanks
  5. I dont. I find that organized people are just too lazy to look for their stuff :-)
  6. Made a couple key chain / pendants and what will be a center punch out of a piece of sucker rod. Had fun but very hot and humid today
  7. Thanks for the pictures and the brain power. She looks like a battleship from above :-)
  8. I like the way the horn is on the same plain as the face, almost an extension of the face I am curious in the construction differences between your cast Reff and your forged Pedd. please share your thoughts and some pictures of the bottom of the holes. Thanks :-)
  9. Not blacksmith related but...BEES! my 12 year old son and I decided to explore this old dilapidated ranch house. As i was walking thru the door, I turned to remind him to keep an eye out for snake, nails and bees. No sooner than I said that it started raining bees and it became a full on cloud of bees in a second. I yelled “bees! Run!” and we took off running. We had to park about 1000 feet from the old house and they chased and attacked us the whole way. Only when we got close to the truck that they seemed to back off. After getting in the truck and calming down. I had 16 stings and he had 4. There were dozens of stingers stuck in my shirt. Bottom line. I am a US Marine and like to think a mans man but I have never been more scared in my life! They were no joke. If I was older or couldn't run, I might have been in serious trouble. Glad to see my boy ditch me haha told my boss this story and he told how his wife's 74 yo grandpa was killed by bees a few years ago in kingman. Assume all wild bees are killers !! thanks for listening
  10. Ooh-rah cocker Chesty would be proud, wherever he is.... You can call me belt feeder (0331) - Semper Fi mack
  11. True but We have a minor league hockey team here in Tucson (Phoenix Coyote farm team). Fun to go to the games the puck makes a nice mellow tone in my tank bell.
  12. Been awhile since I could light the forge and didnt have much time but made some gifts for some friends that gifted me a bunch of brick pavers. thanks for looking
  13. I would be way behind if it wasn't for quick tongs. I bought the bundle and each one ended up better than the last. Well worth the money. Have fun!
  14. Made a sheath for my buddies knife. Was surprisingly fun and easy. thanks for looking.
  15. Agree with Das. Takes a bit of practice. I struggled at first but now its easy peasy
  16. Been a few weeks with an injured thumb. Played with some 1/16 copper sheet, 1/4 copper and mild steel rod. did a bunch of other stuff but the heart was the only thing i finished
