Default Re: Engraving coining dies

Hi Tom,
Spring has finally hit Ontario. Which means after the flooding over and
ground firms up. I'm going steel hunting for the press. This, I'm looking
forward to, a lot! I don't know but it's really fun to build big and
heavy.

The only other thing that come close is blowing thing up. That's right,
half a stick of dynamite and swimming pool. The neighbor will be gone for
month and I've always wanted to try explosive forming with a sheet of copper.
I wait till the corn cribs are going through village. Nobody will notice.

Anyway, I'm very interest in this thread, and have already learn a couple of
thing. You may not win the big prize, but this thread is a winner.

Talk to ya later,
Jim
