A friend of mine called me from the pawn shop today and said "hey they got a pile of blacksmith stuff here for $100, you want it?" I said offer them $75 :smoke: He got it for $80 out the door... All stuff Grant built, looks pretty much unused.. If I added it up right about $400 at Kaynes prices... Not a bad score :playfull:

Yeah, I remember that guy. One of the very few bad credit card transactions I've over the years. I remember it because it's a strange mix.

Larry, poor Grant is gonna starve if you buy his stuff used from guys who didn't pay for it properly in the first place. His avatar pic is looking a little gaunt already. :mstickle:

Nice haul.

you want it back Grant? Sounds like it was more or less stolen?

No, you bought the stuff fair and square.
