« on: April 10, 2013, 02:56:07 pm »
Anyone goin to the Classic in 3 wks that has a blacksmiths hammer and a set of tongs? I'm trying to get started and need a few things.

If you can't find anyone,  get yourself a ball peen hammer, a big ol' sledge head and some concrete.  you can get by with these while waiting for a screaming deal on equipment you can't make (a very short list).

i'm not gonna be at the classic but if you want I would be more than happy to make you a trade for a pair or 2 of tongs, I can forge about any kind you want.

I would not mind a pair, but I have a hammer already(a 5 pound smithy hammer).
How to forge tongs? Could I make some from re-bar?

I have made tongs from rebar and it works just fine, go on youtube and search "how to make blacksmith tongs" and you'll find all the info you need and then some
