Picked up a dozen hiking the railroad tracks yesterday. Seems I ought to be able to do something creative with them. I usually don’t create purely for art’s sake, I want it to be practical.
I can wire wheel the rust off but can’t heat it enough to work that way.
I’ve seen people make knives out of them. I believe it’s supposed to be a sort of “intro to blacksmithing” sort of project.
Saw a lot of that online last night. Just don’t have the means, but I have been thinking on a blast furnace. Been meaning to work up some charcoal in my test rig, guess I’ll do some burning tomorrow!
