[TheForge] Pattern Welded Steel

[Mike Sweany]

goose grease, it's not just for breakfast anymore. Also works as a hacksaw lube and a tap lube. You can put it on your shoes and dance a jig too :) Well if you can dance.:( Which I can't
Glad to hear it can be used for blackpowder too. Thanks Dave

That's the same recipe that I use for lube with .58cal Minnie balls in my 
Springfield musket. Works great. Sometimes I use petroleum jelly instead 
of the Crisco, less carbon fouling.
