Turns out this gym literally doesnt even have iron butlers and these conmen want the patrons to clean all the equipment that we PAY to use.

>Gotten pretty big from watching the one true god Ritchie P on the youtubes
>So big that I now have a group of guys following me about the place when I work out
>Try to ignore them, eventually cave in and teach them the ways of Piana
>As they get bigger and stronger they begin to worship him
>They pull the photo of Jesus off the wall and install one of Rich

Gyms would not exist in a libertarian society.

Does grunting on your last rep violate the NAP?

>not benching 12 ingots for reps

plz

You wouldn't forge the plates, they'd be cast. Please put effort into researching your chosen subject before memeing it.

t. actual blacksmith

>implying you couldn't forge plates

I want Pattern welded plates that look awesome, nigger

What the hell is NAP?
Non-aggression pact?

Being a blacksmith sounds like a comfy as fuck job
how do you get into it?

Non-aggression Principle.

I'll trade you a mithy pl8 for 3k

>damascus-style barbell
fuark

Ask around junkyards or those markets that sell old tools and such. My mum knew a guy who gets specific hard-to-find items and he found me a decent anvil, iirc it was around 200lbs.

You need a 2lb engineering hammer and a pair of blacksmithing tongs. Forges are pretty easy to make, you can use a baking tray and line it with plaster of paris and sand mix. There are a few youtube guides. This is only good for making some knives and such.

I took a few blacksmithing courses to get into it when I was 16-17 then got an apprenticeship over summer with him which turned into a full-time job.
