June 29, 200817 yr " I'm just the village blacksmith " It's a way of thinking. I support my local SCA group in central North Carolina and I'll have a forge at Pennsic this year. I make whatever is needed.
June 29, 200817 yr My favorite Red Green is still: "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy!" LOL same here
June 29, 200817 yr I don't really have a moto but I will say this, If the women don't find you handsome or handy they will still be able to find you by following the dirty tracks across the clean floor.

June 30, 200817 yr Well I thought of this one not to long ago. " Serenity at 2000 degree's " I'm new to the craft and have just started learning the basics so it's nothing catchy or funny. Just something I thought of while working. Since I'm working with well very hot metal I focus more and the worries of the day melt away. ~TS

July 2, 200817 yr I still like "If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem". I think I read that here but I'd be darned if I can find it again. Cheers to whoever posted it!

July 29, 200817 yr Isn't that, "Carpe Extremitas Frigus"? Wait a sec, I couldn't find a dog Latin translator online. Never mind. My signoff on another forum. Frosty
