There was a nice turnout for Saturdays get together. Darren Perkins [dperk] drove down from Cleveland to join us. If we gave an award for the farthest distance traveled, it would be yours.:)

We had a couple of young guys and we put them right to work on the air hammer and grinders. They had a great time and wanted to come back and learn. We may just have a couple of new makers in the making.

Like many hammerin's the people really pitched in a made it all come together, it was one of those wonderful days moving hot steel.

Here are a few pics; you know it was good, check out the smiles.

Yup, dem poppers get gone in a hurry. That last picture looks like you snuck in a habanerro or one of IG's Ghost Peppers. Or was it his HT sauce?
 
You guys sure had allot of good food. There are more barbeques than forges. Dont mind me.....I'm on a diet.
That blue air hammer is awesome!
