Crazy awesome day!
Garage sale, bought 2 nice yamaha stereo recievers, tape deck, a clock, bag full of vise grips and a transfer punch set. $230.
Then drove 1.5 hours to the metalworking class. Mind oficially blown. I can shape sheet metal.

View attachment 1716112241Not only shape it, but understand why it does what it does. $300 for the day, worth every penny imho.

Then bought the Mother Tucking shrinking hammer $200 and i got the shrinking stump to go with it.
I would do it again in a heartbeat!
all around an expensive day, but i think it was money well spent.

That is so cool Frank, I have always wanted to attend one of those classes. I am torn between that and a forging class. I am very seriously considering making myself a forge and learning how to blacksmith. I think I want to take a blacksmith beginner course somewhere somehow someday! Damascus steel intrigues me to no end. Most all my knives are Damascus, and while I understand the attributes and advantages of stainless Damascus just talks to me.
