Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

I'm halping?

I was suprised when I looked at my mod list today, that I don't have any DDproductions mods. I know MXR talks about them all the time, so I knew who he was. I did make a donation to the author of my favorite armor mod so far though.

someone needs to get out there and do god's work

I would consider working on it, but someone would just steal my content and upload it without my permission :(

Also... I have no idea how to mod.

Found this lil easter egg in Doom

In Skyrim, I play as a female Imperial and carry a horker tusk with me everywhere I go. I'm married to Jordis.

Also, my phone changed 'horker' to 'Hitler' like 7 times before it gave in.

Don't go chasin em.

Too late. I can't stick with the rivers and the lakes like I used to.

made the terrible mistake of rediscovering chris-chan

What did he do this time?

another video with a blow up doll. thats all i really want to say about it

i think i'm going brain dead. long long day ._.

Yeah, not watching that ***. Barely made it through the house tour.

It is one of those rare shows that gets better with more seasons as well.

It doesn't sound right because it kind of isn't. The more you melt down iron the better refined it becomes and eventually it will become a primitive steel. I'd go into the process but it is boring and if you are really that interested you can look it up.


All I was pointing out is that that a reforged Iron sword would be better than a reforged brass sword.


This is what I started tinkering with on my forge. I need to rebuild it so I can get it hotter and get a damn power hammer.

I demand you make me a sword from cobalt.

You'd have to impart carbon into the melted down iron to turn it into anything that can technically be called steel. And it requires a completely different forge from the one you likely have. I could be wrong, but most people don't have vertical furnace forges.

Which is a *** of a process and at the end of it, a lot of the material you're going to walk away with is going to be pretty mild steel.

I'd rather just take a bronze sword over going through that nightmare for a mild steel sword. They're much nicer looking.

*falls over* it's half past midnight, but i am home. i'm gonna roll one, play old bluesy rolling stones, and just pass out on the floor.


*edit* league of legends locked me out cause my password was wrong. i kept putting in my work computer password ._.

Many, different types of "steel" exist, with just about as many ways to forge it. Adding carbon to iron is as simple as adding charcoal, making charcoal is not hard (it is a byproduct of the forge). Yes, it would be a primitive steel, like I said and it has been around for a few thousand years.

A pure iron sword is the cheapest, quickest, and primitively made sword. Simply because the base iron ore is just quickly melted down and pounded into a blade. The more time put into it and the more the iron is worked (heated in the forge and folded) the stronger the metal becomes. Which is what I basically said in my first post.

My forge is built from field stone at the base of a hill with a billow on the bottom. Was something i just tossed together to see if it was going to work. It gets pretty hot, but working the billow is a pain in the ***.

I'm very well aware of the fact there are a many many types of steel. I'm a bit of a blade enthusiast.

Saying just add charcoal is silly. It takes a lot of coal to imbue any significant amount of carbon into the iron. Which is why I specified mild steel. Or low carbon, if you prefer.

That said, I just looked up the price of copper ore and holy ***is it expensive compared to iron ore.

Mmm Copper, used in so many different types of wiring.
