Nice catch

Add a clockwork to it das.

Anvil, can you point me to the chaos on your drawing? To me they look nice and clear. My drawings (okok it is for simpeler stuff still) look a lot worse than yours.

I continued today. Split the legs of the cross in the middle for 2/3 of their length and spreading. And started with splitting them again but now only 1/2 of their length. And a picture Notting burned so far, so happy *knock on wood*

In what?

Back ontopic. My lessons have begon again. So i played with coal again. And worked on a real anvil shaped object. Making a fruitbowl out of 30x6 with a length of 200 (all mm, to lazy to convert for you lot). A practice on using a cold and hot chisel, eyeballing (keeping all the small stuff the same size) and not buring your piece (did i mention small amd thinned out stuff?) Now only a cross with the 4 legs peened out to 30mm at the ends again and the middle of the legs (close to the cross)is 15x6. fergot to take a picture. All night wondering what piece is poking you.

A tube tent kan still keep you warm and dry. A good sleeping system (matrass, sleeping bag ,...) Is what makes the difference (ok dry inside the tent is importent too). It is more comfy to stand up than to crawl, but if it is only for sleeping dry, go with good sleeping gear.

Make sure they are unused. We had an incident where one failed in a bang. Lucky the manifold started burning and the safety valves (don't know the names, the ones that closes if the pressuredrop is to big) shut it down. And also good is was on a manifold at the end of the system.

Now you have a cone and a crown. Nicr work

Nice clamping system. Clean.

Nice work jobtiel. The spring is the makita sawblade?

I can lift it (just), didn't calculate the weight. Now i am scared to lift it again.

Well your cacti look very exciting!

Tough paint as well. It is still yellow I have a farewell present at my previous job. A shaft of a drilling machine ( for the frostys a liebherr lr385). It is 85cm long (excact what i need as height). Diameter is 110 mm with a chamfer so the top i use is 100mm. Stuck it in a bucket filled with sand for stability.

I have cut regular bricks by cutting them in from both sides and they break cleanish. Sometimes from one side as well. Bit that is common red brick (boerke in my country). There is a trick of breaking brick stones with the trowel. I can't but the guys building my walls did it with the boerkes, the ones with 3 holes or the massive ones. The bigger ones with holes in (speedstones, snelbouwers ??) Is done with grinder. To many holes inside for a clean break. With firebrick i would cut it from both sides as deep as possible and than break. If it needs to be flat, a grinder (again normal stone, i used a dry diamont cutoff wheel on my grinder and used the same wheel for smoothing it out). With dry cutting, be aware of the dust.

I have seen belt grinder with wooden wheels. In a woodworking shop. It did not run thrue. But the speed was kept lowish.

Wow, nice job for first time. I have yet to make my first tongs

From dry hands to sticky hands in a matter of seconds?

Hollowing or shaping. Thanks.

Thomas not te be disrespectfull. I appreceate your input. Have to rethink my support anyway. The floor is too oneven. It is wobbly-wobbly. Glenn it is me, but i don't understand.

Sorry for the quote. Can't find the blank text on my phone. I get what you mean. But I know it will work out. I used to work at a shipyard. Awerness for the surrounding has become second nature. Working with a torch cutting steel above your head does that, espacially with collegues doing the same around you At this moment. I have more problems finding a good spot for everything. A gasforge gives a lot of heat in front of it.

I will see. I think the wood will crumble before my pants are torn open. I can work in very weird and cramped places. That is a good thing, also a bad thing.

At this moment, tongs and punches. Then triangle for the kids so their summerhouse is finished (at the end of the summer). And some fire-thing-pokes. Small stuff. We see.

It belongs here my small anvil. The wood of the stand looks a bit rotten, but that are only the parts that are missing. The wood is solid. The anvil stand very secure on the wood. the floor however is oneven, so that is a bummer.

I will install the vise and see about the height.
