I thought I'd post some pics of the ABS hammer in. I'll post more tomorrow.

This was a mini class taught by Bill Burke on furnace building and steel smelting

Very nice & thanks for the pics Ray. Looked like fun & a whole lot of learning/sharing going on there.
 
Yes it was a good time. I forgot to take pics of the knife show. Your knife was a big hit. That little kid was flipping it and a blast flipper at the same time with one on each hand!
 
And you could see the wish in that kid's eyes...he really wanted one. I thought it was funny to see a kid like that flip two knives at the same time.
 
Thanks for the pics Ray. I've taken a few knife making classes from David Lisch out here in Seattle and he's a really great guy!
