Larry the puzzled asks:

> ???? Now why would one that loves to smith, move to a location where they can not have a shop?

Well, because I will eventually have a proper shop, including the use of various tools I can't afford yet, but at the moment, Rob, my 
roommate's husband, is busy playing on a nuclear sub, and until I get his help and approval, I can't honorably rearrange his barn and the 
future shop area to suit my needs. In the meantime, much of my other stuff, leatherworking in particular, is being kept out of the 
Connecticutt weather, but is under anvils, forge, bar stock, and other featherweight items.

It'll work out, just not as soon as I'd prefer.....

Phlip, who REALLY wants to get back on the forge and fix that awful drift before anyone thinks that's really the way I draw a point....

Never a horse that cain't be rode, 
And never a rider who cain't be throwed.
