Haven't got much done since the exile...
Shop is still stuffed into the garage, due to leaky sheds, and now winter;
but finally a little bit of work done!The last photo is of 3 "Kit" 'hawks from
Track of the Wolf I'm working on finishing.
I use the name of my knifemaking/ blacksmithing "business" (I guess it qualifies- I'm TRYING to make money...) My name, email and a real picture of me are on my profile and in my signature block.
IMHO- Trolls will usually go away if they are not feed.
Smithy,
Prayers for you! Don't give up the fight- I had a couple of issues over the winter, and things are looking up now! I'm getting exiled back to Michigan from Alaska late this summer, and intend on making Friendship this fall- Would be great to meet up with you then!
Thanks Kevin! As a "Reformed" Farrier (Can't wrestle those nags with a bad back) I have a bunch of old Farriers rasps laying around, that have been used to various degrees. Use them for hot work until they're seriously dull and then make something out of them.
Here's a few that I've managed to get done over the last few months- been one of those time spans that the faster I work the further behind I get...
Thanks for looking!
