[TheForge] fire starting

Fri Jul 25 06:50:00 2003

         Chuck,   Your my kinda guy - I find it handy to do the 10 second
light with the oxy/acet torch myself!  Last time I did a public demo it took
two attempts to light the coal forge..........hey, what else you gonna do
with yesterday's news.
        There's usually a major oops around this shop every day as well.
Luckily as I get older they mellow out in the radical nature of the results.
:-)
