Hi everyone
I have a very small blacksmith shop, but it is still growing. My metal pile is growing by the minute. However, I am always looking for scrap metal, so if you need to get rid of some scrap metal I'll be happy to take it.
If anyone knows a local farrier who still has any old rasps, I could use a few.
Please reply if you do know of any. I'll give them a call.
Ciao,
Molly
