Ryan, I've been forging all day so you may not want to get too close

Bruce I still follow the rule you told me to follow at Boise, then you kindly reminded me again at OKCA when I got too close: "Ryan 10 ft. in front of me or behind me please" But I don't think that was because of the smell?

Just my 2 cents, but a 4 inch handle may be too short. I'd go at least 4.5" or even 4 and three quarters on the lenght. Your design has improved since you started this post. Good luck.

Great progress on design so far. More sketches! I like to make quick cut outs from scrap acrylic to get a feel for different sizes and grips.
