If the commies ever succeeded in making guns "illegal" that is precisely how i would go about making a receiver for one........

I really need to get an anvil. Great video 10bears.

That is cool. I would like to try something like that one day.

Excellent!

Wow..there are a lot of forging videos there.

Well, I have my piece of railroad track for an anvil and an old barbecue for a forge. I could steal one of my daughter's hair driers for a bellows...and I have hammers and a bucket.

I can get tongs at the feed store....

Guess there is no excuse, is there?

No excuse at all, unless you plead "arm muscles are sore!"
'Cause they sure will be when you're done.

The blacksmith trade is very interesting IMO

My mother maiden name meant knife maker in German.

Never seen a blacksmith with white pants before, better yet he didn't get them dirty.

At the State Fair on Saturday, there was a boy of about 11 or 12 at the Blacksmith's forge making something...I think it was a cooking fork.

We watched him for a little bit, but he got nervous with my two teenaged daughters and my 20 yr. old niece looking over his shoulder and he started making mistakes...
