Arkie there are also zirks that you don't push the greaser on, but you slide them on. very handy. No need to push and hope the greaser stays, but it hooks on. But i will look for an oil one. Need to mesure the threat and hopefull it is not a not-common-in-europ one.

Come over, I give you the tour. also had some time over and i opened my foege blower because irondragon pointed my to the greasenipple that should be a oilfilling. No rust on the cogs. A tiny bit of grease at the bottom and no oil. How much do i need to fill up? I have a drainplug, so till the plug? And every use a splash?

Some big dull and damaged woodsawblades. All rusted, carbide bits broken. Diameter 380mm i believe. But i think good steel. Ideal for making some gardentools out.

Re-organizing my workshop. It used to be fabwelded oriented and the forge + anvil i placed in the center area where i had the most place. But annoying to use my welding table and move around with some other projects. So finaly bit the bullet and draged the forge and anvil away. Moved the welding table to a completly new spot same with some machines and put the forge and anvil on its new place. Much better. Better access to my workbench and weldtable. More space around the anvil and my left arm can start regrowing its hair, because no longer to close to the forge. My vice has better access when forging or welding. Very happy. Now i need some coathooks and a toolrack for tongs (before no place to put it, would be or in the way or across the workarea). No pictures because, i didn't take any.

I saw some reviews on youtube in my feed. Not seen one. No idea if they are reviews or advertising. Looks clumsy in your hand. A spoolgun is almost unpracticly large in my opinion. But I'm only an hobbiest welding in a garage.

Make some left and right twisting things and make sure they look alike Think I did not bad. 15x15mm 200mm long.

Sorry, no idea what you are talking about.

Nice spoon, perfect for eating out the soup bowl from the person in front of you. Nice set jennifer. What ya coocking jhcc?

Beeswax if stored inside has the ease of burning away and costumers can apply their own finish with whatever they prefer. I know a commercial company that does that to their steel skillets and pots.

Dolphin! Call me an owl for not seeing the dolphin so clearly

Wow. Sad to hear. Very sad to hear. Glenn thank you for your legacy called iforgeiron and the collection of knowledge you accuired and shared with the world. I will ring my anvil for you.

Cool.

Sometimes asking is good, and sometimes research is good. And in some topics, you can find hidden gold in info. Don't forget to heat steel and hit it. And having fun while doing that.

look in the bbq section. Sometimes there is a sale and sometimes people offer them second hands. Ask what they mainly coocked on their bbq so you like the smell when it is getting hot; Only buy the leather ones, all the rest skip! Beware of "leather" as well in the bbq section.

i have used a small piece of cranerail standing up. Make sure the support is good. I had a good one but the wood was dry-rotted so now it is all wobly and has lost all its weight. So it is jumping up and down. (i still need to make a new one but i choose to use my time forging and swearing to the wobble and not to making a new one) But it is a good anvil and still use it (i made a good fuller of the webbing and I grinded a nice small horn in it). The best way of finding anvils is to start using something as an anvil and be happy with it. Then you will start tripping over anvils

I met a blacksmith artist in Turquant (atelier terre atout fer), is the Loire region, close to Saumur (15min drive by car from Saumur centre).

You could go cheaper and use rockwool instead as well, the toaster oven and use will not make it hot enough to break down the rockwool.

could be but I see the 3kg + ones reversed and the ones less than a kg in the other "normal" way. These are a handfull to use on a scythe. Somehow my dad and grandparents had a lot of those style hamers ranging from 250gr till 750gr. They used to be the more popular style before the german style took over. Every time I'm in france on holiday and visist their small markets I look for hammers. But +/- 1kg is the biggest I found. I have one of roughly 800-900gr, with a rounded face (ideal as a carpentershammer to nail and don't leave visible marks) and use it as a rounding hammer (one side). It is a bit light to use for peening

I see a lot of them mounted that way. More the bigger ones than the smaller ones. And not all of them are in use by smiths.

Thanks for the info.

Ah yes with that big of a reach, there is always somebody ordering something. Thanks

Yes they do offer differential hardening. Otherwise large gears would not last long. Again ship size large. And they harden the surface even more against the friction. But i can't go deeper in explaining because that is about everything i remeber about the shoptour i did.

Hefty drop, Nice work.

Alexander is all your work on commision? The people order direct to you? Or do you make series of work for gardencentra and home-decorationshops?

Check the hook for the weigth if you want to know. Sould be marked as well. That break looks more like a cut to end the life of an unsafe tydown
