Ummm, I was about the 3rd person to sign on... by the time I finished watching the vid it was over $1,200.
Rah! Rah! Keep on Kicking!

Oh, and I have a friend who is a blacksmith. Maybe I can talk him into backup for you...

It's at $16K in at this point. I'm SO excited. Except I can't quite decide which amazing extra to go for. A pickaxe or stained glass. This is hard!

I am an official supporter! And GODS do I wish I had the money for my very own hand forged pickaxe. *sobs*

I will be content with my foam pickaxe.

But don't you want to learn blacksmithing?

What zwol said!

Blacksmithing is awesome. No really. Blacksmithing is so awesome that my bridal shower was me and twelve of my friends heating up iron until it was glowing yellow hot and then pounding the snert out of it and making stuff with it!

My teacher has a couple of wonderful rants about why blacksmithing is awesome. And it's terrific stress relief. (Nothing says, "Good bye bad day," like pounding a glowing piece of steel flat with a big mucking hammer. :)

I refreshed the page, saw this announcement, went straight there, fiddled around a bit figuring out the various levels, pledged... and now it's at $2,390
