Frankly, I wouldn't really classify anything on my wishlist as an absolute "need", as in, nothing on there will cause me undue hardship by not having it in my day-to-day life.
That said, I've been trying to get into Blacksmithing for a while now. I've finally got a friend that's offered to help me build my forge, and my cousin picked up the Semi-truck brake drums for me for the forge body. I'll be working on it this weekend!
Once the forge is complete, I can start working on learning to work the metal. The only issue is I lack most of the tools I "need" to be effective.
My "Anvil" is a 16" or 18" length of heavy railroad track that I'll need to find a mount for.
I have one 2 or 3lb cross-peen hammer that needs to be rehandled and a 2lb ball peen hammer (biggest damn ball peen hammer I ever saw) that I picked up at a yard sale that also needs a new handle.
For tongs I'll be using the biggest pair of channel locks (or "shit-hooks" as my electrician friend calls them.) I have, which isn't exactly recommended. I tried using them when I had a small coffee can gas forge built... lost grip on the railroad spike and got hit in the face with hot steel... let's say I got lucky. LOL
So, I've got somewhat viable-ish tools. The Railroad track will be fine once I mount it, the hammers will be good with new handles, and the channel locks will "work" until I can make my own tongs. The thing I'd say I absolutely need to get properly started (other than the forge itself!) would be the PPE. The Apron, the Goggles, and the Gloves.
Thank you for putting up this contest, and may the forge be with you! :)
