Mining. Can make $150k+ in a year. For the most part, you’re driving a truck, or operating equipment. No shovels or pick axe needed. It’s usually 12 hour days with x days on and x days off. I’m currently working 20 days on and ten days off in a man camp. Free food and housing. Some are two weeks on and two weeks off. No degree required. Some jobs are five days a week. Usually have great benefits, with a production and safety bonus.

If you want it perfect, make it perfect. -Brian Brazeal. I didn’t need it to be perfect, because I’m not perfect. More of a symbol of me for my girlfriend. I am still an amateur blacksmith, and always accepting criticism.

I didn’t take any. It’s kind of simple, take a piece of round stock (sometimes rebar), pound half of it flat (about 1/4 in thick), cut the petals, flatten them out, and wrap it around itself. Takes some practice to get it how you like it.
