The most recent ones involve an open fire and a sand pit.

A nice thing about iron is that one can usually reheat and reform it.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

That's what I was attempting. I was annealing some old wood rasps, got distracted and fucked up the cooling process and had to start over.

Looking to make knives out of old files?


....

It doesnt't work particularly well - as a file is not really the kind of material you want in a knife. The hardness is case hardening - and generally what you end up with is a blade that has alternating hard and soft spots....


You would do better with a steel made for thru hardening...

Making chisels. Post-annealing and shaping, you can oil quench them and get the hardness back.

Figured out the wooden puzzle boxes I bought to gift two of the grandchildren with money for Christmas. Then went online and learned how to fold a bill into a heart.
