Ooooops

Yeah I recently put together a forge from a gutted barbecue, some fire bricks, a chunk of pipe and a leaf blower. I've been working on forging tomahawks but I've messed up two in a row, it's pretty tough work.

I think if you anneal the file before trying to forge it, it makes it easier to work with, I wonder if heat treating un-annealed steel does anything bad; I just might make a thread in the blacksmith area about it.

If you can email me that drawing, I'll start working on this tomorrow.
Thanks
