Welcome aboard. You‘ll love the blacksmith shop at the fest.

Picked up a couple yesterday. The guy is a little hard to nail down. I got 2-3/4” rods for me and a 1” rod for @slow-poke. Did a quick calculation and one 6’ rod cost me $45 vs $188 at Metal Supermarket. Well worth the drive and the little communication hassle. And I got to see Jeff’s really...

Dang. I messed up and forgot the link. Great Canadian Rust Junkie Fest
