Wouldn't you know it, the New England Blacksmiths fall work shop on using power hammers is the same weekend I'm scheduled to fly to Montana to elk hunt with Doug & Claudia.  Doug is probably the only guy that would see this as a dilemma too.  So I'm probably going to take in the hammer-in, be all packed ahead of time, an fly out on Monday.  For anyone else who might be interested the workshop in Vermont...tippit

I'd just go out to Doug's and play around on his stuff!!
But then again, whenever you get the chance to learn something, especially when it's an experienced blacksmith, you had probably better go do it.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

hunt it

Doc, you's getting your prioritys all messed up here.   :knothead:    :knothead:  

You can always make knives and whack steel when the snow flies. Forget about the power hammer and get out west and whack elk. I'm starting to worry about you!
hunt it

Yea but I just got a power hammer and could use the workshop...maybe I can convince Doug that he needs an extra ranch hand to extend the hunt  :)

Bowdoc,  This thing is sitting idle in my garage! You know how much money I make selling knives and I don't even know how to use it well yet  :knothead:  

 

Plus it's only missing a day...heck Claudia will be tagged out by then and I'll have two guides  :)   Also Doug wants me to take a lot of notes...you don't think he doesn't want me there with Claudia do ya??  :confused:  Doc
