CameliaCity Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 Hi everyone. took a few multi week classes in smithing about a decade ago, and I'm finally at a place in my life where I have space and the income to take on a new hobby. Been lurking around here, absorbing all the information I can, and thought it was time to Log in and say hi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CameliaCity Posted May 9 Author Share Posted May 9 At the moment, im just remembering how to swing a hammer, and building out a set of tools. Some punches, chisels, spring swage, Hardie hot cut, etc etc As for projects at the moment, im working on a set of fireplace tools for father's day. While I will make few knives here and there, the tool making side of smithing is what drew me back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHCC Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Welcome! Sounds like you're at the "Making a tool to make a tool to make a ... What was I making?" stage of things. Careful; that stage can last a good long time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
