Hello

[AsphaltAce]

I have been making my own tools for years, am a hobby machinist, motorcycle/ATV mechanic and retired from USAFRes Fire Protection and retired from post frame construction. Just recently built a coal forge and hope to become a hobby blacksmith.

Hi AsphaltAce - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Sounds like you'll fit in well here

What kind of things would you like to make with your coal forge?

[AsphaltAce]

First tool is a hardy cutoff tool for my anvil and have just ordered the quick tong set from Kensironstore.com. From there, who knows! Going to be fun, whatever it is.

Keep us posted on that hardy cutoff tool! Here are some ideas: Homemade Tools Search: hardy - HomemadeTools.net

Finished the Hardy cut off tool today. Made from a cut off of an old Oliver bulldozer axle.

Nice! We'll get that indexed and added to the homemade tools encyclopedia.
