Well I think swords are cool....I joke. I just want to learn to take metal and shape in to practical usefull objects.

Here is my hay budden. It is 128lbs. Should I be worried about cleaning it up?

Hello everyone. I have been browsing the site the past few days. I thought I would sign up and introduce myself. I am a complete  nub on smithing. However I acquired  an anvil last year. I always thought learning to make useful  things out of metal would be a good skill to have. After purusing the site I feel I have learned a lot about forges and how to make them.  Cheers.
