Still got to polish and sharpen the blade but the handles made out of Padauk, curly maple and lilac. The plugs are made out of purple heart, lilac wood, and cocobolo.
Chilling on the hammock scrolling reddit and I realized it's been a year since I got branded in the parking lot after a cancer slug show.
No I'm not on drugs that was assumed when I posted last time. I enjoy doing stupid shit to build my lore plus I like having stories like "ya I got branded by Alex after a show" just in my back pocket.
It was obviously a long healing time, personally feel like it's still not healed enough to where I feel comfortable getting it tattooed. Never needed to go to the doctor after and no it didn't get infected I weld for work and over the years I've had to take care of some gnarly work injuries.
10/10 would do again

Looking for some advice. I started welding about 5 years ago after not being able to continue my career in armed security due to my hearing (brain tumor made me deaf) I was desperate to find a job to support my family and I saw a welding job posted never picked up a welder in my life lied about my experience took a well test after watching a couple YouTube videos passed and have been welding ever since.
I love it but now I'm trying to look for a new job, since starting welding I've never had to fight for work or chase down a job. But lately I've applied for probably 50 different jobs and I had 2 calls back. I want to keep welding. Other than the local welders union what would you guys recommend for trying to land a secure job? I'm open to pretty much anything other than tig (haven't learned that yet). I want to grow and retire with this but I feel like I hit a wall!
