Winter is coming.


I've got another 9 brake drums of various truck sizes ready to build MOAR AARKEN FAARKENS!!!

Might turn 1 into a boring bench grinder pedestal, and might toy with the idea of a charcoal forge with another.

I really need to pull my finger out and build something out of the 6 drums I’ve got sitting here - I keep saying that every Winter...

What are those legs? I have seen them somewhere but don't remember what they are or their use.

While you're making your forge, grind some of that railway track into an anvil and attach it to a big round of box wood

This be like a diesel runaway waiting to happen,,

just add fatty pork snags and you're away!!



Bring it up this weekend and we'll test it out...
