the smith also sitting by the anvil, and considering the iron work, the vapor of the fire wasteth his flesh, and he fighteth with the heat of the furnace: the noise of the hammer and the anvil is ever in his ears, and his eyes look still upon the pattern of the thing that he maketh; he setteth his mind to finish his work, and watcheth to polish it perfectly

Ecclesiasticus 38:28 KJVAAE

 I would like to thank the Vista Forge in Vista, Ca for allowing me to photograph their work.  They were not sure about me at first but have welcomed me and allowed me to show with my photography the wonderful sites of the blacksmith forge.
