Ridgewayforge Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Hi all, I wanted to share with everyone my shop. Its not glamorous, but it does what it is meant to do for me. I just acquired an anvil, so my major tooling is complete. I have yet to fasten her down, but I wanted to share the whole shop regardless. The sign which hangs over my forge!The shop as a whole, with the scrap pile in the foreground Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WL smith Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Looks functional to me. Might want to put some sheet metal around some of it for inclement weather. Forging in the rain is peaceful. I know you will lose track of time I always do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGUNDOCTOR Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I see you just planted the scrap pile, feed it well and it should grow big and strong....Some sides will help on windy days, plus help to keep all of the wood construction drier.

SpankySmith Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Yup, only issue I see is your scrap pile is still in it's infancy stage. I'd work there all day long, but you gotta get your poor lonely scrap some friends. No self-respecting Smith has such a tiny amount of stock!

JME1149 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I keep looking at the pics but don't see a scrap pile. I see the beginnings of a nice little resource pile, but no scrap. That is a nice setup you have, I'm sure you'll have many enjoyable hours forging there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neg Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Looking good. I'd be worried about rain blowing in on all my tools, but that's just me. I especially love your sign, did you do it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 What's all the green stuff around the posts someone has randomly set up around the outside of your shop? Some sort of emplacement "art"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 The scary thing is that Charles comment works considered either a typo or as written! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
