Mylore Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Finally got a working forge and got my first project done. Was hoping for more of an arrow head to make a necklace for a guy who scrounged some scrap and stuff for me as a thank you. Turned more into a arrow/spear tip but what ever, it was fun. Also found a chisle like thing in a bunch or scrap from my won at an auction, and remembering an idea i saw here once tapered the handle end down a bit and it now sits nicely in the hardy whole and might turn into a nice hot cut hardy. Then once I shut things down, my son wanted his turn to make something. So he got his "work helmet" and had as much fun a me, i think.

Marksnagel Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Glad to see you are forging. Really glad to see your son helping. Really, really glad to see he has eye protection of sorts. Keep safe and it's a lot of fun. Mark<>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Browne Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Enjoy the dad/son time. My boys are starting to look outside the family circle now for activities and already I miss them at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mylore Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 I was really nice to have him there, he sat about 10 feet away on his swing most of the time and really only came up to get a good look at things when I quenched them at the end. Of course lots of "Daddy, what you doing?" thru it all. Was sort of funny to because I had to remind my wife to stay back more often than him as I was working on the anvil. If she ever gets that close again when I am working she will find a hammer in her hand and me saying " Hit it there!" :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I can sure identify with that, kids are almost always better behaved at demos than the adults. They ask better questions too. Frosty the Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
