Or was it a one pound nail? I forget now 🙂 Forged from a piece of 1.5" round with the help of my young pal Austin.

In an unrelated story I have also invented a machine to shrink Mustangs. It only works on mustangs, though 😉

He's lying! It's actually a full-size Mustang, but he forged the nail from 24" round bar!

Absurd! If that were the case I'd have to have parked it on giant slab of Sequoia 😉

The first and last time my wife helped me clean up my shop, she kept asking where to put the one pound nails. Well, it was the biggest font on the box. . . :redface:

Is the shrinkage permanent ,
or will it go back to normal in water?
