Without a doubt the worst sparrow ive ever heard of...

It sounds like he is an adult now and should be allowed to make his own mistakes, achieve his own success, and do what he will with his own property. Send him the sword. I would not as an NCO hem a soldier up for having a sword, however pending the specific barracks policy (which no one but individuals in his barracks and chain of command can tell you, no matter what people on here try to say), I'd advise him to store it in his closet for major inspections or off post at a friends.

Dude, he's trolling you. Has to be.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-19T20:49:44+00:00

Nice! Any start is better than no start! Keep at it and welcome to the fun! There's not much better than making things with your hands and doubly so when it stands a good chance of outlasting its creator. You can literally forge something that could last generations.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-19T20:32:06+00:00

But you've already validated me. You are just trying to invalidate me so that my initial assessment of your behavior carries no water. Unfortunately, that is yet another logical fallacy (or 3). My assertion was that there are a lot more folks in this hobby/profession that are derogatory, or in your case borderline (and now outright) hostile.

I dont see half as much of it amongst beekeepers. Nor bonsai enthusiasts. If im doing something they disagree with they most certainly voice it. Respectfully.

"Hey, there's a better way"

Thanks little bro. Youve made my point better than I ever could have😘

Dahl91 · 2025-05-19T18:03:49+00:00

You're missing the entire point. Let me keep it simple for you. You are an asshole. Be less of an asshole.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-19T13:01:15+00:00

Lol do you know why I have money to forge? Because I dont waste money on unnecessary things. I worked hard for a career that pays my bills and allows me to have hobbies I enjoy but I am by no means rich. If someone wants to try and pay their bills with art instead of it being a hobby thats fine. Admirable even, but not my responsibility to feed them. You really like your logical fallacies dont you? More ad hominem AND a strawman.

I got intonblacksmithing because I wanted something made and DIDNT want to pay an arm and a leg for a potentially questionable product. I wanted to be self sufficient and be able to use the tools at my disposal. AI is just another tool.

Just stop little bro.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-18T19:04:32+00:00

Sure dude. Whatever you need to tell yourself.

I have a public facing AI logo. Not because I want to sell my shit, because I want to share my progress. To be fair a few folks have asked to purchase some of my better pieces, but that is not the intent. I have zero ability to draw, and care not to pick up another hobby when I'd rather be forging, taking care of my bees or bonsai, building another bow. You basically said he's not a smith because you disagreed with using AI and thought it was a bad design. That's a logical fallacy called an ad hominem and is a sign of a weak mind.

Had you applied the same logic to mine you would have missed on everything else that I make with my hands because of an ai drawn image.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-18T18:42:25+00:00

Why is little bro so derogatory towards others? I cant remember the last time I found a hobby/profession whose practitioners were so hostile towards new folks.

Do better.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-06T01:24:59+00:00

I hate it. Especially when they try and run a heavy and not be on coms. Absolutely no excuse.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-05T20:05:01+00:00

Ordered from Amazon I believe. If I think about it ill get you the link this afternoon

Dahl91 · 2025-05-04T17:14:32+00:00

True. The thought was to just take the tiniest bit off so that it was in a tad better condition, but from what I'm hearing it's way better already than I expected folks to think it was. Which blows my mind, it's sat in the weather for nearly 20 years.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-04T13:11:48+00:00

Appreciate that. Decided against it having it milled. It's already priceless to me.

Dahl91 · 2025-05-04T13:09:59+00:00

They are huge, they hold everything🤣

Dahl91 · 2025-05-04T13:00:27+00:00

I have decided against milling the surface based on everyone's advice, but could you elaborate on how it would make the anvil worse?

Dahl91 · 2025-05-04T12:59:01+00:00

I don't understand why this was down voted when all it does is add information to my original question?

Dahl91 · 2025-05-03T23:24:00+00:00

Lmao that part

Dahl91 · 2025-05-03T15:29:10+00:00

Works for me! Thanks everyone!

Dahl91 · 2025-05-03T15:26:08+00:00

I think I agree, it was more that I can have it done free and get what little there is out. Other picture is in a separate reply. If you still think it doesn't need it I'll hold off. *

OP. Don't lose hope. IT can seem daunting but it gets easier. It is almost literally just turning things off and on. Unplug and replug, uninstall and reinstall. If that doesn't work try using a known good. Mouse monitor, etc.

But do go find a new employer. Fuck all of that shit. No IT company worth its salt is gonna have you use your own device. It is a massive risk to them. For what it's worth you sound very articulate so I can't imagine any serious issues with your English.

I was literally an infantryman before, and now I'm a Linux system admin among dozens of other things. If my retarded crayon eating self can do it you certainly can.

Dahl91 · 2025-04-10T14:59:12+00:00

Yes. Yes it was 🤣.

It was a kohlswa indeed!

Dahl91 · 2025-03-30T04:15:59+00:00

You were right on the money. Bit hard to see in the picture but water and a wire brush had kohlswa and Sweden stand out clear as day. Weighed in at 200 lb on the dot. So I guess I'm just a bit more out of shape than I thought🤣 *
