I got a batch last week that smelled weird when it burned, sort of chemical. Asked around and found out they're grinding up old pallets and construction wood to stretch the product. That stuff can put off nasty fumes when you forge with it, right? Have you all checked where your fuel is coming from lately?
I filter and cool it for multiple uses, saving resources. What's your take on reducing liquid waste?
I switched out the old handle for a new hickory one last week. No matter how hard I pound the wedge in, it loosens up after a short time at the anvil. What's the deal with getting a solid, lasting fit?
I realized I was holding my breath and almost passed out at the anvil. How do you remember to breathe properly while working?
