St. Patrick's Day is around the corner and like most people, we're psyched to get our green on. Big bonus for money-minded fashionistas: emerald green is Pantone's Color of the Year, so rather than let that green top gather post-March 17th dust, we get to wear variations of the shade months afterwards without looking Leprechaun-obsessed.
Sure, we've already been to a few St. Patty's Day parades (code word for: "enjoying a mug or three full 'o frothy yumminess and eating corned beef til our blazer buttons burst"), but there's something about wearing green on the actual day itself that amps up the fun factor. We love green's rich vibes and flattering shade options from jades and olives to limes and of course, emeralds.
Green Pieces that Get the Fashion Green Light
Feast your eyes on 17 great green pieces to wear on St. Patrick's Day and in the months following. Not to worry, there won't be any "I'm not Irish, but Kiss me Anyway" tees (so overdone) or accessories with plastic shot glasses attached (ditto). Personally, I'm excited about the green and white Revlon Nail Art™ (Neon Collection) as well as the pretty filigree cuff shown in the slides below. They're perfect year-round, and I plan to kick off my new green finds at the March 17 2nd annual parade in Freehold Borough, NJ (hey, I can't resist a shout-out to the Freehold Borough Arts Council and my New Jersey hometown). At some 500 yards, it's been called one of the shortest parades around, but trust me, it's big on fun and spirit.
So get ready to celebrate in style. Have fun out there and enjoy St. Patrick's Day, ladies!

The Montgomery County Council may be a long way from making a decision on a potential bus rapid transit system for the county, but residents aren't wasting any time making their opinions known.
A public hearing on the proposal drew a large crowd of supporters and opponents to the Council Office Building in Rockville on Tuesday evening, including 34 people who signed up to speak.
Another hearing is scheduled for Thursday at 7:30 p.m.
The service would create a system of buses, possibly using travel lanes dedicated for their use, that officials hope will help ease the county's problems with traffic congestion.
Some speakers Tuesday objected to the idea of lanes used only for the buses.
Rockville resident Steve Miller questioned how much the project would cost, and said while the county should set up an express bus system where it's appropriate, those services shouldn't have lanes dedicated just to them.
He also questioned how the county could set up another bus system when its existing system isn't as efficient as it could be.
"We have a current Ride On system that does not work, so how will a system that will remove lanes of traffic and require convoluted routes help solve our traffic problems?" he asked.
Jeffrey Slavin, mayor of Somerset, a small community of about 400 homes north of Friendship Heights, said while many of his residents support the county's efforts to help people who rely on transit, they're also hopeful that the first phase of the project along Wisconsin Avenue will stop at the Bethesda Metro station.
"Please don't start with our neighborhood," Slavin said after he testified.
Somerset residents are particularly concerned about what effect losing a lane of traffic for a bus lane would do to traffic on Wisconsin Avenue.
If someone's commuting from Clarksburg to Friendship Heights, they can get off the transit bus at the Bethesda Metro station and take a local bus, he said.
Supporters of the proposal met outside the council building before the hearing began to talk with reporters.
A system such as the one proposed would let people get out of their cars and onto transit, but dedicated bus lanes are the key to making it work, said Dan Wilhelm, of the Greater Colesville Citizens Association.
David Houck of the Montgomery County chapter of the Sierra Club, said Montgomery County will see tremendous growth in the next 30 to 40 years.
Where new jobs are located largely will be determined by what sorts of transit options are available and where they're located, he said.
Council members reminded the audience that the project still had a long way to go before anything actually happened.
After a lengthy planning process, the council will ultimately vote on which corridors the system would ultimately use, how much right-of-way space would be needed and where possible stations would go, Councilman Roger Berliner (D-Dist. 1) of Bethesda said.
The council won't vote on where bus lanes would go or if they'd be solely dedicated for buses, how much right of way would ultimately be needed, or how the program would be paid for, he said.
The lack of a way to pay for the program means it's even further from reality than people might think, said Councilman Marc Elrich (D-At Large) of Takoma Park.
"It's hard for us to approve a master plan for something we don't know how we'll pay for," he said.

Parents MAP - September
Communication is key. But what kind of communication is key?
Communication comes in many forms - some verbal some nonverbal. I read this recent stat that up to 93% of our message is conveyed through nonverbal behavior? That is quite a lot when you think about it in terms of 1) how many words we must waste or 2) just how powerful and long lasting our actions - whether we know we are doing them or not – are!
In my book "Potentialing your child in soccer" I talk about nonverbal behavior. I have included an excerpt here. In the excerpt I talk about what nonverbal communication is as well as provide a few examples of things to do/think about. I hope they are helpful…and as always email me with any questions or comments at firstname.lastname@example.com …while I think what I wrote is helpful I also would like to add to it a bit using one of the ideas in the excerpt…body language.
Body language
Are you aware of your body language and what it might say to your child that is also an athlete? The impact of those slight little head shakes and hand gestures in frustration?... Or what about the head nods in appreciation or claps when they fall down.
I must say – in time I have become keenly aware of the impact of body language on kids in youth sports – by research but more by anecdotal evidence. I am also a soccer parent and sometimes I catch myself reacting much differently than I probably should. I think most of the times I catch myself….but sometimes not
I could write some things here but quite honestly a quick search of the web yields some awesome results of body language and the impact this it has – both on the person viewing the body language and on the person that is actually doing/engaging in the body language
Check these out and take what you like. Again the goal of these is to educate and inform…if ever you have any questions please let me know…enjoy
- This article is called Body Language Essentials for your Children. It has some interesting ideas and information on body language and the impact that it has on the mind
- This is a great one entitled Sending the right message is all about body language. This one has some real world tips on ways to communicate off the field with your body language - with olders and youngers.
- Sports parents…your body language never lies is a short little article on the true messages your body sends to your kids.
- This is a video from Amy Cuddy - a body language researcher from Harvard. The video is entitled "Your body language shapes who you are". It is a great piece about the impact that body language has on our behaviors and minds…its remarkable.
- This video is a long one…and for sure less scientific but is a cool look by the history channel on body language. It is entitled "History Channel Secrets of Body Language"

By Dr. F. Beer, Mai Akasaka and Dong Woon Kim
The housing boom of the last decade has helped increase minority home ownership rates above 50 percent for the first time in 2004. Social scientists praise this success because home ownership encourages greater neighborhood stability and economic progress. President Bush cites rising minority ownership as an achievement under his "ownership society" programs.
Unfortunately, things have changed. The market is crashing and minorities are losing their residents in huge amounts. An article published in the New York Times reports that the rate of Black home ownership fell slightly in 2005. It also reported that home foreclosures among minority homeowners could rise further in coming years due to higher rates. The article said that the race of borrowers is not available on foreclosure documents, but studies that compare foreclosure rates to the racial makeup of the neighborhoods where the foreclosures are taking place suggest that the rate is rising higher for minority homeowners.
So who is to blame? The sub-prime mortgage rates for one. Sub-prime loans, are loans made to borrowers with credit histories that the industry considers less than prime. These loans have interest rates that are, on average, three points higher than the prime rate and they carry higher fees and prepayment penalties that make them expensive to refinance. Further, many of the sub prime borrowers took out adjustable rate mortgages where payments rose if interest rates rose. Their plan was to refinance these loans using the expected increase in value of their house to help them qualify for a better loan.
Unfortunately, house values did not increase, but instead dropped! In Riverside and San Bernardino Counties, the average price of homes has dropped by 18.6% and 16% respectively.
Now that houses are no longer increasing in value, sub-prime borrowers cannot refinance. This forces them to pay a much larger mortgage payment, which, they cannot afford. Conclusion? A sharp increase in foreclosure.
If you have bought a house within the last 2 years, you know exactly what I mean. It is time to understand what your options are. In this article we explore Short Selling.
A short sale is a nice option to get out from possible foreclosure and sell your house. Here is how it works.
Imagine that you have a house that has a $200,000 mortgage. Unfortunately, your real estate agent states that the house is now worth $150,000. If you find a buyer for your house, you are going to be required to come up with the additional $50K. Most people don't have as much extra cash.
When you do a short sell you need to contact the lender and get their approval to sell the house at whatever the market is at. Sometimes lenders agree to this because they know their other option is foreclosure. When they have to sell a foreclosure they usually will only get 50 to 60% of the market value of the house.
Most people who have had a foreclosure have a difficult time buying a home within the first 3 years, unless they have a generous down payment. Even then, their interest rate might be higher due to the fact that the new lender knows the person has lost a house to foreclosure in the past. If you elect to "Short Sell" your home, make sure you work with an agent familiar with the procedure. A professional realtor will assist you in avoiding a deficiency judgment for the amount of money that the bank lost.
Lenders may claim whatever debt they've forgiven as a loss on their taxes and issue a 1099 form. In other words, the forgiven debt is taxed as earned income. You should definitely check with your accountant for this information.

Comments On Sep 14, 2014:Graphics are not the same quality as the OEM stuff, but they do the job and look similar. It's a budget option over OEM really. Mine came with a flaw, so I called up FX and they sent out a replacement pair immediately. Great company.

It provides academic preparation for particular ministries as well as the option for supervised apprenticeships and spiritual direction through the Roman Catholic Diocese of Syracuse. People who have completed the formation for ministry program through the diocese will have an opportunity to further their studies. ABOUT THE PROGRAM Candidates for the pastoral ministry certificate will create personalized programs in consultation with an academic advisor at Le Moyne.

This track includes: • five courses (three credits each) chosen with an academic advisor • supervised apprenticeship and spiritual direction • special tuition arrangement • commission by the bishop to a particular ministry Track B Without parish sponsorship. This track includes five courses (three credits each) chosen with an academic advisor. FINANCES Track A: The student is responsible for one-third of the tuition, the sponsoring parish is responsible for one-third of the tuition and Le Moyne College is responsible for one-third of the tuition. Track B: Students are responsible for the full tuition. Current semester rates apply for tuition. WHO IS ELIGIBLE? Candidates should have a minimum of an associate degree, or 60 college credits.

Still not one single truthful person. Liars!
Still not one single truthful person. Liars!
Never use a big word when a little filthy one will do.
OK guys new term coined last weekend.......
I was at the bar Saturday night with two of my buddies when we get a text from one of my buddies little brothers. His brother text the following "I need to get laid and there's a hogger at the bar and I'm better looking than the dude who is trying to hog it so I swooped in and stole the hogger!!!".
With out missing a beat my other buddy looks at me and says "that **** is like some sort of Swedish term or something Swoopinhoggin'!!" And BOOM goes the DYNAMITE!!!!!!!
A new term was coined - Swoopinhoggin': when you need to get laid and you are better looking than the other guy who is trying to hog it and you swoop in and steal the hogger!!!
Ok guys a true story for you from the pages of the Filthy diaries.
Happened in late August about 3 or 4 years ago now. Relaxing on the lake all afternoon drinking some brew we decided to go back in to shore grab dinner and relax. With nothing going on around our pad we made the boat trip through the channel to the other lake to check out the scene at a buddies house. We get to the place and there is a fire going strong with about 30 people hanging out, now you add the dozen people we had an the boat with us you have a pretty good little shin dig.
I notice across the fire a girl named Adrian or as she was coined the Filthy Ham Sandwich which later transgressed into the Filthy Spam Sandwich. She was one of those taller skinny girls, not much shape, decent ass with about a small b cup and the face is a meh.........anyway I see her standing over there hanging on my buddy who happens to be a Jets fan...........
[Ok a side bar about how her name came about....a year prior I am at an after hours in my buddies bar around 4am, Spammy happens to be there and I have no idea why she was let in the door to be honest, we try to keep the after hours to reasonable women but maybe it was the shots. Regardless, being the filthy ****er that I am I decided to **** with this chick and see what became of it. She responded favorably to my demeanor and somehow my dick ended up in her hand. So while she is stroking me at this bar (It was pretty dark because it was after hours so know really knew what the hell was going on) she tries to lean over and kiss me to which I look her right in the eye and stone cold and say "no part of your body is touching me except your hand on my ****". Surprisingly it didn't seem to phase her and she was happy to continue but that isn't the point of the story, that story was to give you back ground on her nickname and why she is known as the Filthy Spam Sandwich, there are more stories about Spammy and maybe in the future I will share but for now on to the Jets fan]........
So my buddy disappears several hours later along with Spammy and of course I noticed this right off the bat and drummed up the search party. We find ol' Jetastic balls deep in Spammy behind the kitchen island, kind one of those little bars you have stools at and you eat breakfast at. Anyway in their hast they stacked the stools on top of the counter top which ended up being a mistake lol. As we rifled any item we could find over the counter top and at the Jets fan and Spammy's head couple footballs, a soccer ball, Frisbee etc...one person took it a little too far. I see out of the corner of my eye a folding lawn chair getting heaved over the counter top which comes up short and hit three of the four bar stools which all topple onto Spammy who happened to be on top.
This was a classic moment, priceless in my eyes because two of the stools and the lawn chair smashed Spammy in the head sending her in to hysteria and the other smashed the Jets fans in the face blooding his nose sending him into pissed off mood. Spammy is running around the house screaming butt naked and the Jets fan is chasing us out the door pissed off wrapped in what I think was a blanket from he couch. This only drew more attention to the scene to which everyone was now getting in one. One of the other girls from at the party snagged the blanket as he ran by derobbing him (not something you wanted to see). The Jets fan is now yards away from he house door butt naked running historically trying to find something to cover up with. Another buddy does what anyone else would do and bolted inside to quickly lock the back door to the house essentially locking him out totally from his ****.
Turns out Spammy left after that and my buddy the Jets fan found a car to dive into and after about 20 minutes we let him back into the house to get dressed. So like the Jets, even their fans cannot seem to manage even the mundane of tasks without ****ing it up or getting their dreams cursed by someone else.

Communities and Environmental Laws
Project Information
This is a DVD, Communities and Environmental Laws, was created by a collaboration of three non-profit organizations:
- Environmental Law Institute,
- United Church of Christ, and
- the Southwest Network for Economic and Environmental Justice.
The DVD focuses on how citizens can learn about the environmental laws and how these laws can be utilized to help the people make their communities healthier places in which to live. It consists of two case studies where local communities have worked together to address their local environmental or public health issue. It shows how people just like you have done this by using the environmental laws to make their homes a healthier place. The DVD contains an English and Spanish 20 minute video as well as copies of the publication "A Citizen's Guide to Environmental Law" upon which the video was based.

I don't suggest anyone try this because it could be dangerous.
I have tried all sorts of ways to round the corners on the plates I use.
Band saw, linishing and a press with a die but it never gets a perfect round corner and it always needs linishing. Today I decided to try using a router.
I have a router table and purchased a cheap router bit to use.
Clamped the 6mm or 1/4" thick plate between some pine studs to cut down the chatter.
Here is the result.
I then tried rounding the corners of a 100mm or 4" diameter tube that had been 1/3rded.
Here is the result of that test.

That's a good idea. I have used a router to round the edges of plates for years, but I never thought about standing one up and doing the corners.

It makes sense, since they say that the cut speeds on bandsaws, etc., are similar for wood and aluminum.
Thanks for posting up.
This is not as precise as a mill but have you ever set up a mill to round corners off a plate. You require an indexing head worth $500.00 and the time required will make you think weather this part is worth it. To set the fence on the router table took a few minutes and the clamping similar. The actual run time through the router was lets say 3 seconds then I just had to unclamp and reclamp on the next corner. Total time from start to finish 10 minutes.
It was so easy I bought a larger diameter bit and recornered them to get just what I was looking for.

I've used cemented carbide router bits in my mill before. They actually work pretty good and you can't beat the price for the shapes you can buy. The smaller shaft (most of the ones I've found are 1/4" shaft) will cause some chatter, but other than that they work fine. Same goes for carbide tipped circular saw blades.
I've also used a router on big aluminum plates (steel too, but that was super noisy and hot and just all around not a great idea). It's best if you have a variable speed router and you can turn it down a bit. Then just ease into the cut and don't try to take the whole thing at once, take a few passes, lowering the bit, (or I guess raising the guide on a router, same thing) as you go. Wear hearing protection, some good tight gloves aren't a bad idea, and some kind of cool cut or bees wax or something to lubricate the bit.
A corner rounding end mill?
The diameter I required was 26mm and all the milling stores here don't have a mill bit over 16mm diameter that I could find. May be special order but that would take weeks and cost a bit.

I use 1/2" radius (25mm diameter) quite a bit. Available via catalog here overnight for $10.97. No biggie though like I said router bits work great. I was mostly referring to your suggestion that making that cut in a mill would be expensive and time consuming. But hands down for the money and versatility router bits cut the mustard 90% of the time.
This is a great discussion.
So how much did the mill cost brand new.
With that rounding bit do you need collets?
If so how much did the collet set cost?
Did the mill come with a machine vice?
If not how much does a brand new machine vice cost?
Unless you have the mill set up for just round cornering how long does it take to find the correct collet, collet spanner and bit and install into the mill?
How much space does your mill take up in your workshop including walking around space?
Is your mill single phase or 3 phase?
If it is 3 phase was that already hooked up in your workshop or did you have to have it done?
Does your mill run coolant?
If so how much did the coolant system cost?
Is your mill portable, you know can you take it to the job or move it if the area is needed for a special project?
I only have a very small workshop and the area to me is worth more than a machine. If I can get a machine to do multiple jobs than it gets some space if not I keep looking. I have a mill but find the router table easier as it can be packed down and stored hanging up on a wall, is portable, comes with two collets that is all that is required, fast to set up for rounding corners, edging and slotting & did not cost much. The only material I use it for is aluminium so no need for any more power.

The Crossing (Keurosing)
Yong-soo is an ex-soccer player who lives in a small coal-mine village in North Korea with his wife and young son, Joon. Although living in extreme poverty like many other families in North Korea, the family is happy just to be with each other. Then one day, Yong-soo's pregnant wife becomes critically ill. Let alone medicine, Yong-soo can't even find food for her in North Korea. So he decides to secretly cross the border to China hoping to find the medicine for his wife. Yong-soo makes a promise to his young son Joon. He tells Joon to take care of his mother in his absence, for he will return with food and medicine in just 10 days. After many life threatening moments in China, Yong-soo is forced into South Korea, becoming an unwanted refugee prohibited from returing to his family. Meanwhile, his wife passes away, leaving young Joon alone in desperation. As his father had, Joon attempts to cross the river to go to China. But, he is captured near the border by North Korean guards. He is sent to a youth detention camp where he is beaten with guns and shovels, forced into hard labor during the day and locked up in a cell at night. In South Korea, Yong-soo searches ways to safely bring his son to him.

There are thousands of ways to roast a turkey. Here is one of our favorites. We make this year round, because it is flavorful, moist and simple. The recipe was adapted from The Second Avenue Deli Cookbook: Recipes and Memories from Abe Lebewohl's Legendary Kitchen. The secret to this exceptional turkey is "marinating" it overnight in a spice rub mixture.
Turkey1 14 lb. turkey5 Tablespoons onion powder5 Tablespoons garlic powder5 Tablespoons paprika2 teaspoons sea salt or kosher salt1-teaspoon pepper
For Stuffing5 tablespoons canola oil2 cups chopped onion1 cup chopped celery1 cup chopped carrots4 cups scrubbed, dried and chopped mushrooms10 cups loosely packed cubes of French, Italian bread or challah2 Tablespoons poultry seasoning5 eggs, beaten1-teaspoon sea salt½ teaspoon pepper
TurkeyWash the turkey in cold water; remove any excess pinfeathers; clean cavity; dry well.In a bowl combine all spices. Rub the spices all over the outside of the turkey.Place in a large dish or platter, and cover tightly with foil or plastic wrap. Refrigerate 12-18 hours.Preheat oven to 350.Truss legs of turkey with skewers, culinary twine, or our favorite -- silicone bands like Architec Stretch Cooking Band, 2-Inch, Package 20, Assorted Colors. Bake until internal temperature reaches 165, about 3 ½ hours. If turkey is getting too brown, tent with aluminum foil.Allow about 20 minutes per pound for roasting or until internal temperature at the thigh reaches 165. Also, for safety, check the temperature under the wing.
For Stuffing
Saute all vegetables in oilPlace bread cubes in a colander; Run cool water over them to soften and then squeeze out excess liquid. Mix with sautéed vegetables.Just before stuffing turkey, mix in eggs. Place stuffing into cavity of marinated turkey. Do not pack tightly since stuffing will expand. Tie legs together with silicone bands, culinary twine, or skewers.Place turkey in a baking pan with 2 " of water. Bake breast side up for about 4-5 hours, basting every 30 minutes with pan juices. A stuffed turkey takes about 30 minutes longer to roast than an unstuffed one. If turkey is getting too brown, tent with aluminum foil.
Place any extra stuffing in a deep baking dish, rather than a shallow one to maintain moisture. and bake alongside the turkey for about 60 minutes. To ensure that any bacteria are killed, the stuffing must be cooked until a thermometer inserted into the middle reads 165°F.
Stuffing can be cooked separately and served alongside turkey. For safety reasons, this is our preference. Instead of using water to moisten the turkey, we often use Vegetable or chicken broth.
Serves 8-10

Rather than be dejected as his pole run came to an end, Lewis Hamilton has congratulated Nico Rosberg for his success in Bahrain...
Rather than be dejected as his pole run came to an end, Lewis Hamilton has congratulated Nico Rosberg for his success in Bahrain.
Hamilton headed into Saturday night's qualifying as the driver to beat having set the pace in all three practice sessions.
However, it was his Mercedes team-mate Rosberg who was triumphant.
The German clocked a 1:33.185 to edge Hamilton by 0.279s while the Brit's second attempt came to naught when he made a mistake and backed off.
But rather than get down about it, Hamilton was "proud" to see Mercedes emerge as the strongest team.
Asked if he was disappointed, he said: "Nah, to be honest I'm not, you can't always get it right.
"Congratulations to Nico. He has done a great job this weekend, he's been improving and picking up his pace. He had a really good lap in the end there.
"I made a mistake on my last lap, I locked up and went straight on.
"But generally I really am happy.
"I'm really proud of the team; for us to continue to keep moving forward and progressing as we are."
The 2008 World Champion was questioned about fuel consumption at the Sakhir circuit but downplayed the issue.
"It's no worse than it has been in the past I don't think," he said.
"There is a lot of emphasis put on it but I think we should be fine tomorrow."

(Visit the new Tennessee Fire Department Online Resource Center for more detailed information!)
The National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) is the system used to collect and maintain fire and other emergency incident data at the local, state and national levels.. The Tennessee branch of NFIRS is known as TFIRS(pronounced 'TEE-FURS'). NFIRS is managed by FEMA's United States Fire Administration (USFA) and administered via coordinators in each state. Participating departments must be assigned a user account with username, state and password. Fire agencies input their data by exporting from a local database and uploading to the NFIRS database or by direct entry using a free downloadable application called the NFIRS Data Entry Tool. The deadline to file reports is ten(10) days from the date of occurrence of the fire(Tenn. Code Ann. 68-102-111). Departments may also key directly into NFIRS using the web-based Data Entry Browser Interface (DEBI), which doesn't require download and installation. The web-based Summary Output Reports Tool (SORT) outputs critical management data such as department response time, number of personnel responding, and number and type of equipment responding. Tennessee fire departments are strongly encouraged to participate in TFIRS and may receive more information by contacting TFIRS Coordinator Dennis Mulder ( email@example.com ) at (615) 532-5753.

For a beginner, The Complete Modern Blacksmith by Alexander Weygers might be worth a look. I had an earlier version of this book.
There should be more book reviews here:
You can see a preview of the book here: books.google.com/books?id=3Vzrz_A70eAC
Note that he's a bit off as far as quenching (water vs. oil). See the review.

Alex's book may have a few boo-boos, but it's a good read. He was trained as a blacksmith way back upon a time in Europe, became an engineer, then an artist and sculptor. Very interesting guy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Weygers
One time the local community college here offered a blacksmithing class. It was hosted by a local guy in his shop. It was great to walk into a shop with coal forges and all the stuff and just start banging away. I'd already had a wee bit of experience and a lot of windshield time watching a blacksmith in Thailand when I was in the Peace Corps. Someone shows you a thing like a letter opener or spoon or something, gives you a few pointers and turns you loose. Shaping hot metal to your will with only a dim idea of where you are going is very satisfying. Or should I say it engages all of your being, so there's only you and the metal, willing it into shape. Teacher said I made a couple of the things and he wasn't sure if he did it or I did. That was a nice compliment.

Here's a video on YouTube . 1922 black smithing you might like.
Just building a forge out of a truck's brake drum sounds interesting and fun. I have the SIL looking for an anvil for me, he lives in a real rural area of the state, hope he spies one and some tools in a yard sale for me..
Thanks Kpack, I'll watch it.

The guys in Thailand I worked with had minimal equipment. The fuel was hardwood charcoal, not to be wasted. The "anvil" was more often than not a 12-16 pound sledgehammer head sunk into a hard log. The forge was a couple lumps of clay mud with bamboo air pipe from a hollowed out log or two that looked like a butter churn. The air seal on the wooden piston in the air pump was chicken feathers stuck on with tar. Fancy ones used a bit of inner-tube as a flap seal.
They made stuff like this.

I have The Backyard Blacksmith by Lorelei Sims although female Blacksmith are rare, she did a very good job with this book, I liked it.
Also have The Art of Blacksmithing by Alex W. Bealer it's also a pretty good book, 430 pages with 500 Illustrations.
I also have some paper back books reprinted by Lindsay publications they were 1st. printed around 1906. They were very cheap but some great old time practices that are fast becoming lost.
All in all the best book I have is a paper back book I found at a big book store on a close out table for less than $20.00. I can't remember name and I loaned it out to a friend and he hasn't returned it yet. Metals, heat treating, annealing etc. very old and has priceless info on how they did it in the old days. It's a awesome read.
When I get it back ill try & post it.
