FlatLiner Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Nice to see someone from my neck of the woods also Davidf How long have you been blacksmithing? Or are you a greeny like me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGUNDOCTOR Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Now you guys will know who your competition is for deals on KSL Did either of you attend the ABANA conference that was held in SLC last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatLiner Posted March 14, 2018 Author Share Posted March 14, 2018 No I didn't. I was wondering who my competition was lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidF Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Built a forge at the end of the year and made a few knives. I am definitely a greenie. I have to say, I don’t think you will have competition from me for an anvil on the KSL site. All of the damaged anvils are overpriced and the guys won’t budge. So I have given up on it as a resource. I will be using a plate for the time being. I missed the ABANA conference unfortunately. I have seen pics from it and wished I would have stumbled upon it before it occurred. I am keeping an eye out for future events and will attend when they are scheduled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatLiner Posted March 15, 2018 Author Share Posted March 15, 2018 I hear ya DavidF on the anvils on ksl. I was lucky and asked around folks I knew in Wyoming and walked away with one. I can't afford what's on ksl either lol. Send me a pm I might have something to help you out. Do you have any left over kaowool or anything for forge building?

D.C. Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Hey, so I'm just up the hill from all you Utahns. Evanston, Wyoming. I'm not a member, but I've met a few guys from the Great Basin Blacksmith guild. They seem like a real good group of guys with aTON of knowledge to share. I highly recommend getting in touch and attending a meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
