As more and more people join the do-it-yourself revolution, they are breathing new life into many time-honored skills and crafts. Blacksmithing is among the trades that are enjoying a resurgence for both practical and artistic uses, yet there is not an abundance of readily accessible information available to beginning blacksmiths to help them get started and understand the craft. Author Ryan Ridgway, a veterinarian and blacksmith with more than fifteen years of metalworking experience, hopes to fill that void with this comprehensive volume geared toward answering the many questions that new blacksmiths often have. By explaining the physics of moving metal, the different styles of anvils and forges, and alternative fuel sources, Ridgway sets his book apart from less detailed volumes. Forty practical, easy-to-follow projects are presented, showing aspiring blacksmiths how to make tools, such as hammers and chisels; farm implements, such as gate latches and hoof picks; and items for home use, including drawer pulls and candle holders.Inside The Home Blacksmith:The evolution of blacksmithing around the world and the differences between the tools specific to each regionThe behavior of heated metal and the science of metalworkingSetting up a shop safely and economicallyThe heart of your shop?the anvil and forge?and the other essential toolsWorking with different types of steel, including how to salvage steel for different usesTechniques from beginning to advancedStep-by-step instructions for forty blacksmithing projects: tools and other implements as well as decorative pieces for personal use or sale

Perfect for the price!
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
Oil pan has been great. Used it on my 2015 2500 for oil and rear diff changes. No problems at all.

Holds it all and easy to use!
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I bought this oil drain pan when preparing to teach myself how to change my own oil on my Toyota Tundra 1794. Yes. Youtube and I…we be mates. Anyway! This drain pan easily held all of the old nasty oil and made it easy to complete a dirty job in a relatively clean way!

Good
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I have had no issues with leaking. Just double check the o rings are good and in place and you shouldn't either. Although I'll be honest it's pretty over priced. You can go to home depot or o Reilly and find the same exact thing for a third of the price. All the same it's holding my oil just fine.

Not so good - oil splashes all over !!!
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
I am SO glad I just saw this pop up in my "purchased" items category...I am not only a Do it yourselfer but I also perform service work for a group of clients as well and I have to say I had a version of this before and threw it out after many years of service due to the fact it started dripping/leaking and I did not want to waste time trying to find it! with that said I purchased this and "What a mistake" every time I change the oil if it does not hit exactly the right angle or area the oil just ricochets off the surface and splashes all over the garage surface (especially when working with 0w20 type oil - thin)...I think this one will be seeing the can soon as well even after only 30-40 uses!!

Rare Small Leaks
Style: 16 Quart Drain Pan
These work well but i have noticed that they leak in small amounts from time to time. Can be a little annoying when transporting used oil or coolant to be recycled.
