Great write up. Tip#1 was definitely the one i wish i really took seriously when i started. Took a blade out of the forge, struck it once, slipped out of my tongs and flung right in my eye. No ppe on, i felt like a moron (still do) so much so that i waited hours to call anyone for help. It was unbearable. Luckily i have full vision in both eyes still. I shut my eye just in time. Few days recovery, minor blurred vision for a couple weeks, and nice burn mark across my eye socket. I fully admit i was being an idiot of the highest degree. But i learned from it. Now i wear a full cover face shield as soon as i ignite the forge.
