ThomasPowers Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 "any hammer in a storm" used when grabbing the nearest hammer to work on a heat---demonstrates to students that it's not the hammer that's important, it's the skills! (I particularly like to use the hammer they are complaining about to fix the issues with their piece...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually the first couple days are more like "Are you trying to forge it, or tickle it?" I don't remember where, but somewhere around here I've also heard something like "Don't just stare at it!
