  1. Was able to light the forge today felt great. Made a punch or what I hope will be one pictured in center. Then got the first bracket to hold my anvil down made got to do 3 more but need make a jig now that I have one be way easier to bend. Then finally started to mess around  with making a skull. Got the metal bent over little too far I think but will get back to it next go arm got tired.

  2. Frosty Have had to switch jobs and look8ng for a second now. Restaurants where destroying my mental health and family. So I got out. Went back to the local community college for better hours just cooking  but less pay and then you name it something I own broke 1 after another and just been digging out this whole. life decided to drop the bottom out on me at once to make sure I was still active.  Almost back to sea level but want to get some saved up.

  3. To convert that celsius temperature to farenheit because i temeber reading someone mention this. You take the celsius temperature multiply it by 1.8 and add 32.

     

     

    To do the opposite from F to C subtract 32 and multiply by .5556

    Is there anything i can improvise with if have no post vise to hold hot metal to hit with hammer my vise is not made to be hit. attempt forging say rams heads or skulls where i am trying to move the metal with punches and chisels. I know like hold down i believe or chain but attempting different angles gets difficuult or it flattens when not wanted on opposite side.
