I use this old one alot smaller but works very well. Key is having that flat side. I have mine on a longer handle than normal I find easier to swing but I stand on one side of the log and strike the other side of the log. Didnt get to work on setting up shop and forge family in from Georgia.

Looks like it will be a nice deck. N9t single thing done for me today went in at 9 this morning and just got home from work. Scribes are beautiful and so are the tables excellent work gentleman.

Wow been to Bennington many of times. Also had family in both those cities at one point that's crazy. Enjoy its wonderful up there especially if into anything outdoors. Fished like crazy as a kid. Love Sunnape and know many from Burlington VT and Charlsetown NH.

not sure if my phone likes me photos loading black. Need retake it seems.

John enjoy Vermont. My entire family is from New England. Vermont New Hampshire Maine and Mass. Visited Vermont and New Hampshire for 20 years straight 3 times a year so beautiful in the fall. Dont mind me asking what city are you in? Enjoy and those look great. Alexanderx those are beautiful empty and with flowers nice work sir. Organized my supplies setting up to rigidize sunday morning.

Would steel from an old farm animal pulled plow blade or spring make good chisel material? Spring is flat bar style for engaging depth. Blade is a c shape exaggerated about 2 ft wide one end narrowing to like 3 to 5 inches. Maybe 2 inches thick at most. If not good for anything besides practice?

Like the idea of PL and gravel thanks Thomas going to see what a load will cost.

Forge will be outside of the carport anvil in the front needed storage and space so I will make it work. And already saving for exstinguishers.

Each corner has a 1 foot long ground screw. 2 of the center posts are steaked with 1 foot long spikes. And other set of 2 have 2 giant cast iron bottoms I salvaged from work sitting on top of posts. Have more spikes going in today lost the sun and the my headlamp. And my first project will be more spikes to anchor into ground. Cover is ratchet clamped to frame and ground . Going to drive the 3foot spike and 2 ft spike I have now before work.

Well I got the carport up just in time sun about to go down. Next day off attack my forge to get it finished. 10 feet wide 17 feet deep 9ft 3inches tall perfect for a start.

That osage orange tree sounds nice always wanted a piece to make a bow with. I am about put together the carport now waiting on my help.

Woohoo. Just got a car port to turn into my shop area. Time to get this started.

Nice work Billy. Hoping my one day off tomorrow get my forge started.

Moozoog that's a fun word.

Couldn't tell length nice work I like them both Chad.

Top one looks like a tanto and bottom one I not sure but looks like be a good kitchen knife I like the shape. Nice work chad.

Those tables will be gorgeous and wow resin is exspensive. Excellent work sir hope you get a pretty penny. Tongs dont seem that easy to make but I see alot of people making them time for research.

Polar bears fur actually has no color and is hollow which in turn allows their fur to pretty much mimic the color around them and any pigment is stained or dirty. There hairs have no pigment and hollow. Which in turn works with there black skin which draws more light to heat and work with the hollow hairs. Ever seen the polar bear the made friends with sleddogs and visited year after year. There video somewhere bad memory but polar bear and a dog playing is quite funny and bizarre to see. Sorry I full of useless knowledge family tends to say I know everything. Is what it is now I hope i wake up to sunshine so i can coat my forge and fire it before work.

O yes I well aware that. Corperate america counts every penny. Just have seen many just go to scrappers worked at spot like you said trash was cheaper cut loss start new. Where others inventory everything all depends on their size like you said. But now I aware just never connected the dots and now can.

Yeah I figured massive rooftop units. Lots of hoods and refrigeration and ac units everywhere I work have signed the repair bill for some them motors or replacements and never dawned on me lol.

Never thought of that now I am really searching. Have HVAC stuff all over.

Makes sense safety and insurance.

Thought that too. Still in disbelief they just through away dont see really any issues with it.

Nothing yet honestly to new to smithing but couldnt let it just sit there in dumpster so lonely. Hopefully a knife once get some practice.

Wow just wow. That people even mess with a moose. Just like those idiots get out at Yellowstone and a bison or elk shows them how small we really are. Dont get why people think wild animals won't hurt them. Like those latest videos of the father taking his child into an elephant enclosure through 3 fences. Common sense just not that common anymore.
