What did you do in the shop today?

It appears they are coming out with a Kerbal Space Program 2 next year maybe? I'm surprised a game that came out that long ago is still $40 USD. -
Possible Lead? Or Old Rust

I got round two of Pfizer back on 1/8/21. Minimal side effects for me. Little fatigue, arm was tender but not enough to bother me. Was very happy to be able to get it this quickly. One of the few perks of being a hospital employee! -

Depending on the system there are different ways to resolve challenges. Some still use dice just like D&D does for challenge resolution. Others do things like cards or Roshambo. They also have several different worlds they are set in that are different than D&D. Some of the biggest LARP organizations out there play White Wolf's World of Darkness. Oh... and let's not forget the ones like Amptgard and Dystopia Rising that are what are usually referred to as "Boffer Larp" where you really do act things out. You make your own weapons and armor out of foam/pvc piping/etc and actually hi -

I believe there is a YT video on how to modify that respirator to accept 3M filters. Not sure I'd 100% trust how well it works after making the modifications... but there is ways to do it.

Nice. Look forward to seeing your shop done!

Welcome aboard Mike. There are quite a few of us in IL! I'm down in Decatur, Buzz is a bit closer to you. I know there are some others too up in Bolingbrook area I think? -
Goods, what part of IN are you in? Pre-Covid, I use to road trip over to Indiana for gaming adventures with friends. Indy, Bloomington, Evansville.

Friend of mine sent me this yesterday. Made me laugh. Thought I would pass it along.

I believe Chile recommends against blocking either end of their forges on their website.

Shop Help. Quest for Damascus
Jealdi replied to Cs Tactical Knives's topic in Building, Designing a Shop
Depending on how my current home build turns out (it's almost done, I swear! Darn weather and life getting in the way), I might end up with a Chile next year, so I've read up on them a bit. They do use a burner based of Mikey's work from here I believe, so that's a plus too. -
Shop Help. Quest for Damascus

I believe Chile sells replaceable kiln shelving for the bottom of the forge to assist with the flux issue. Around... $50USD each maybe? -

I grabbed the rapid tongs. 5 tongs for $50. -

Chimaera, I bought the rapid/quick tong kits from Ken's Custom. Haven't worked them yet, still finishing up my propane forge (this sub freezing temperature has kept me inside where it's warm). The instructions seem simple enough, and the materials I was shipped look nice enough to me, but I'm not an expert.
