When did you learn to love smithing?

 White hot burning heating and intense pressure has allowed us as a species to go on and improve many qualities of life.

 From cultivating crops with metal farming objects to murdering our brethren that we disagree with, smithing has been the backbone of human society.

 Unfortunately this art is long unappreciated in modern times, even MMOs make these fuckers spend hundreds of hours to make sub-optimal and unwanted gear.

 When did you learn to love the art that is smithing?

I only got smithing up to like 67 before I quit, not much you could make for a druid anyway

I wish I had learnt blacksmithing, it seems so appealing.  Just something about working a hot metal rod until it comes to fruition into something pleasing.  Also its less gay than woodworking.

I read the title as "when did you learn to love something?"

Truthfully, I doubt that OP actually loves smithing. Why? The only .gifs in the OP are of hot forging. J'accuse!

Cold forging aluminum.

CNCing crazy fucking shapes.

Casting... go back to Magic: the Gathering kiddo.

I think somewhere around the start of the Iron Age.

You're right, I'm a fraud that bought into the forum peer pressure of thread trends.

Now to get drunk enough to do a '213372bu is drunk ask me anything'.

It's all good broseph, up until this year I thought MIG welding was just how they made Balalaikas.

Metalworking. *fans self*
