LongWire,
Thanks, everything is fine and am really trying to be extra safe as a shop standard. "mostly safe" is not good enough. Just like logging, it's the stuff one doesn't see coming that gets ya.
There is a QP here who is an old school logger, he knows this too.

Mrs. Harsey sitting with her friends, "What do you say to the master knife maker with a black eye?"
"Nothing, you already told him twice. HAhAha!"

Shop tips for the Old Blacksmith
When using a 500# trip hammer, use longer tongs and have the aprentice do all the heavy lifting.
Also, the trip hammer should not fall so far. One can set the hammer to lightly touch and crack an egg.
