John0622 Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Just joined the forum. Live in western NC foothills. Been wanting to get into blacksmithing for a few years but it was intimidating to start with. just pulled the trigger. Bought a wilkinsons anvil from 1860-1890 era i believe and made a wood stand. Built a simple 1 burner propane forge and frosty t burner. works great. made a few drawer handles for my dresser cause the wifes been complaining theyre all broke. just made a set of tongs that may look like hammered dog xxxx but are functional and i learned alot in the process. I look forward to posting my stuff to some feedback and learn from this forum. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Where in western New Caledonia are you located? I've always wanted to visit the south sea islands!
