    Smile New guy here!

    Hello from St. Joseph IL. Getting back into black & Blade smithing after a 10 year vacation"Health reasons".
    I am in the straight razor hobby and I have decided to get a forge going and make pattern welded billets to forge straight razors & knives from. I have been honing & restoring straight razors for a couple of years & just want to start making my own razors & a 2" X 72" belt grinder is what I need to make them. I have been a machinist & welder in the past so I should have no problems building my own equipment.
    Cool site!
