[TheForge] CR 1018 .25 x 1.5

[Daniel Kretchmar]

I have made forks from 1/2 and 3/8 inch by spliting and making the tines...I
think making a fork from 1.5 inch wide stock would be alot of work.  The spoon
idea...hmmm.....I could neck down the stock with the power hammer.....dish it
in my spoon swage......I already make ladels using copper/brass/steel discs
with I rivet together like the one I saw in the Don Plummer's book, The Sorber
Collection......

I'll try tomorrow.

Isn't sanity really just a one trick pony, anyway? I mean, all you get is one
trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy
ooh hoo hoo hoo

sky's the limit!
