Hey all,

Just took my first Blacksmithing course and now the fun begins. My summer project is to build a forge/weld shop out of a seacan that is right beside my garage. Can't burn that down...lol. HVAC mechanic by trade but has been awhile since "hands on".

Just purchased a coal firepot for $350. Next purchases; welder, anvil, belt grinder...and it does on and on :) (649).

I also plan to build a propane forge out of a woodstove and DIY tempering oven. All in is the only method I know...lol. Good thing my wife loves me.

MY door is always open.
 
Welcome from Oakville! My buddy has a small coal forge that I've played at a couple of times. Lots of fun even if I have zero talent or skill.

Where did you find a blacksmithing course?
