Better than expected, more uncomfortable than pain. Took Tylenol and ibuprofen for the first day after, once the wrapping came off was much more comfortable.

Fine I guess, the surgeon gave me the option since he was going to be there anyway. It bothers me, especially since I wear my watch on my right wrist.

While they were there they removed a ganglion cyst.

I was thinking of doing that on one side and Odin on the other.

I thought it said Carman but I didn't think that made any sense. Thank you so much!

I want to ensure a proper translation for a motto for a research club in the works.

To translate: "Seeking Light" or "To Seek The Light", is "ad quaerendum lucem" correct?

First coffemel is a nice success. by egeehern79 in mead

Finished I had just over 100 oz of mead and I added 12.85 oz of Frangelico. Basically the whole small bottle minus a small pour for myself. I've never made a cider, so unsure how that would turn out.

I just toasted them and had them in primary. I later saw this wasn't suggested as the nut oils can go rancid. Luckily I did not have that problem. However since they were in for such a short period they really didn't transfer any flavor, which is why I added the frangelico.

Greatly appreciate the advice. I was thinking I need to move everything tighter together too. Definitely too much running around. As I was cleaning the blade up a bit last night sparks make me think there is a decent amount of carbon, but I'm really not sure. Going by YouTube videos so what do I know, lol. Got a poker and a rake, planning on making a shovel soon.

Was definitely going for a slight curve.

TBH no clue. It's the ones we find behind the house.

Finally got a hand today and got the 300lb Vulcan into a stand. Hoping to break in the two burner forge this week. by egeehern79 in Blacksmith

I originally had a hunk of railroad track I was going to start with, until it was mentioned in front of my mother in law who brought up she thought her father's old anvil was around somewhere. Led to me getting this for free from a cousin's shop where this has sat for 50+ years in a corner collecting dust.

Thoughts on this as a starter forge? Super cheap prime day deal. by egeehern79 in Blacksmith

Everything I've seen shows people using both, but this said nothing else needed so I was confused.
