I'm at salishsea organic liquors in wa and make over 20 flavors

I would post a link but if I remember right the rules say I cant do that?

Oh xxxxxxxx no I didnt .. well then lol I'll def research that process 

Also on the anvil I have it so I can lower it for him or a small plat form for him to stand on  I also floored in part of the work space to, so half of it is at his height and half is at mine lol. He is a foot shorter than me and is on the spectrum so saftey was def a concern for me . He is doing an amazing job on the saftey part . He even calls me out when I break a saftey rule at points 

Hi everyone 

I'm looking foward to learning a new craft and grateful for the opportunity to have access to all the knowledge on this site  I've always been Interested in black smithing but am just now getting into gear to give it a shot lol way to much free time during quarentien plus it's something I can do with my little brother lol. I have 11 years of experience casting dental prosthetics and have been distilling and making liquors for the last two years. So its def due to time I get back into something that tickles my artistic side a bit . Over the last couple weeks me and my little brother built a small shop , fashioned an anvil , repurposed a few hammers and nippers , ordered a small forge " thank you hells forge" and the last few days we have been giving it a good wack lol. Our first creation was a bit wonky but def a good learning experience with figuring out how the metal moves and how important hammer control is XD.. day 2 we had a bit more confidence and we forged out a knife for my partner out of 1095 "bought this before I found out how finicky it is to harden...." and cleaned it up a lil bit.  it was def a dif beast than mild steel took me a sec to adjust lol this one is on pause till I get my drill press and receive the parks #50 I ordered in the mail. And for our most recent project yesterday a bottle opener lol this was just kinda fun to make with my little brother

Thank you again
