Bricker & ForgeMaster
Bricker, ever tried forging a beam yourself? The grain’s alignment can make the difference between a structure that lasts and one that falls apart. You think a mill can keep up with the precision I get?
Yeah, I've got a good eye for grain. A mill does the heavy lifting, but if you wanna fine‑tune it, you gotta make those adjustments yourself. That’s how you get a beam that’ll stand the test of time.
Sure, a good eye is one thing, but a real craftsman keeps the hammer in his hand and the anvil close. The mill can shape, but you’ve got to drive the grain, not just point it out. If you want beams that last, you learn the rhythm of the forge, not just the rhythm of the machinery.
You’re right, the hammer in your hand and the anvil nearby are the real test of skill. Machines shape the wood, but the rhythm of a good craftsman keeps the grain in line and makes a beam that lasts. I keep that balance every day.
