[TheForge] Miss Arizona

[LrdThorolf at aol.com]

Do I miss Arizona. Nope. Got tired of the heat. Could not work on  forge in 
the middle of the summer since it was hot outside. But it made it nice  the 
anvil stayed warm all the time.  Guess I will need a heat blanket  for my anvil 
now that I am in Michigan and there is no insulation on  the walls of the tin 
garage.
Going to AZ next month and going to ship my leg vice back. A friend was  
going to trade me a knife for it but he never came through.So now going to ship  a 
it and see if I can get rid of the rest of the stuff that I left  there too.
 
Andy, dam the creek and put in a big pond.  Could also reroute it so  that 
you could put in a water wheel to  run a trip hammer or treadle  hammer. Do an 
old fashioned forge setup run it all by water. Also could  hook up a generator 
on it to make your own electricity.
