Things that suck...
Well, been a little bit since I've posted. I've been doing work around the house which was suddenly halted when my pickup's transmission started acting up. Anyway, I'm making some gifts that need to be done in a few weeks(bootscrapers) and today was the first day that I've gotten forge time in weeks. Its amazing how difficult it was after not having lifted a hammer for a month. I made good progress and there should be no problem getting the gifts done but my arm feels like a noodle now...
I hope to pick up some larger oxy/acetylene cylinders this week. I already own a pair but they are very small and are usually empty after about an hours worth of work or less if I'm doing cutting. I'm not going to use modern welding on any of my period items but I will be using it for tools that are difficult to make(usually because I don't have a helper to hold things while I'm working...)
