[TheForge] forging clothes, etc.

[Daniel Crowther]

I just got my utilikilt 3 days after the Conference ended.  I should have 
ordered earlier.  I even ran into a guy at the Conference who was wearing 
one (not overly friendly but wearing one ,<chuckle>)

It's a good garment and I've been forging in it w/o and safety problems and 
the hammer loop is great (although they will refuse to sew it onto the left 
for us left-handed smiths until they get enough requests :(  )

Also, we've adopted it as our "official" work clothes when doing 
demonstrations.
