YAY!

Thu Aug 27, 2009, 6:19 AM
well, i went tool shopping a few days ago with some savings, and the proceeds of my 21st birthday from earlier this year, and among other things, purchased myself a 30kg (65lb) anvil, which should be somewhat more useful than the small piece of railway line i was using, mainly because no matter how hard i hit it, i dont think it will bounce off the worksurface and land on my foot! i also aqquired a propane blow torch, will see if i can find some use for it, not sure yet, but hey, i was on a tool purchasing rampage! :D

live in australia, love landscape and wildlife photography, belting hot metal with a hammer, i'm especially fond of knife making, and any knife i make is tested by me before being handed on to a buyer or given as a gift. they may not be pretty, but they work :D i hope you enjoy what i bung up here, if you are interested in using any of my photographs, please contact me first!

Mod is rather an overstatement, but the heads are American Tomahawk and quite good steel. The steel butts do make the shortened poleaxes into real tree killers...

no worries :) i love your drawings just as much as i love your hubbys metal work :D seemed a logical step to add you to the watch list, allowing me to be lazy and know whenever you post something new! :D

When someone uses my name like that, I feel like they're claiming squatters rights on my soul.

thanks very much :D your jewelry is also very cool, i love the strange designs, and anything that can be made by belting a piece of metal with a hammer is good in my book :D

xD That's the best theory ever. Also very true! Hammers make eeeverything better. Heh, thanks!

i agree entirely, i've done set fabrication, for some very adaptable sets, and i always found myself reaching for a hammer if something didnt quite fit :D it may not be the most subtle approach, but when you have a very limited time, and information on whats needed comes in the form of grunts and ranting from the director, speed is the key :D
