    Surprising how far the piece of steel forged out to
    The tail is long and the blade is huge

    If you quit now, you may not end up with the fatal disease. Mike warned me & I didn't listen...now I'm incurable. Moving and grinding steel is very addictive. You have been warned.

    Thank you and God Bless, Scott

    thanks Scott but there's no hope for me
    so I'll take your warning & raise you by adding a Metal Fabrication & 1st class welder trade on top,
    which I was hooked on the 1st time I had a go at metal work & welding in high school in 1984,
    I loved doing the odd bits of blacksmithing in the boat yards as an apprentice.
    & My grandfather was a life long trade Blacksmith.
    so it's deep in my blood & I know I'm screwed,
    now to add fuel to the fire, I have the bride showing things she finds on the net & would like made lucky most won't fit in my mini forge LOL
