Any blacksmiths here?

I have made handmade bits, spurs. Gas welded and brazed. I did all my hot work with just a torch.
The right belt sander is good.
What is really cool is the guys that can forge a "one piece" spur and out of a Model A axle. They are artists and a dying breed. They aren't cheap.
So much crap for everything is made in good ole China. You can tell fast by the price!!
