[TheForge] Rodent Wrist

[Dan Tull]

When cord bruise made me lose use of right hand , I prepared to switch to 
lefty.
It's amazing what you learn ( or re-learn) starting over. No bad habits to 
correct,
and you notice hammer control immediatly. Built myself an 800gr. Swedish 
style
cause I didn't think I could handle the 1000gr. And , yes, I turned the 
anvil the right way.
Horn to hammer hand.
