I'm geeking out pretty hard right now. After running my Carpentry/Construction Management company for the past 12 years I FINALLY got into a shop to store all my crap and do the odd woodworking project for my clients. For years though I've really wanted to get back into metal fabrication which I did a lot of I high school but haven't touched since. So this boxing day I went and bought a welder, drill press, grinder, vice, chop saw and all sorts of odds and ends. I built a few things like a stand for the chop saw...
And a rack for stock.
My first real project was some brackets for a client.
I was going to copper plate them but it was too expensive so paint had to do.
I was feeling pretty confident after that so now I'm on to trying to build a forge. I've ordered an anvil that is coming in a week and hope to be making knives as soon as it arrives. Yes I ******* love Forged In Fire and YES that is what inspired this. I'm fine with it.
