Stackitus!!

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago (edited)

The next few days ill be away from Steemit

Tomorrow I will go and visit a friend who lives in the forest on a permaculture farm which is 2 hours by train North of Oslo. He invited me to come up anytime I wanted and now's the time to take the much needed break for a few days away from what has become the usual. I was messaging with him the last days and he sent me a picture, telling me he has a blacksmith workshop.

Any of you with this terrible illness will know where this is all heading!

I have had stackitus for over a year but it had until last month not really shown any inflammation or symptoms , but then of course the time came and it erupted like a plague and lead to to buying "cheap" .999 20g Silver Coins on several separate occasions to keep the urges at bay.

I went into the shop where I go to and ask if they had just lumps of pure silver for melting down but they hadn't. Then I asked if they had anymore of the "cheap" coins I was buying previously , but they hadn't.
He looked at me and went over to the usual drawer under the register and pulled out a plastic coin tube.
this guy must know how it is to be a victim of stackitus because then he slid these Maple leaves out and placed one in my hand.

I didn't expect this nice surprise, but then I soon realized I knew where they had brought them from as I saw someone selling over 1000 of these along with 20 gold coins online in Oslo- and this person excepted crypto. Can guess who's just woken up to join the fun there can't you! Anyway the price wasn't much different from the previous seller so all good there, at least you know they are genuine if a shop has bought them from the one selling online.

Then I also realized that he was showing me these because I had got the other coins which are very suitable for melting down , it seems nobody really cares about "Norway at war" and there must have been many made. Wait a minute, I hope these arn't the free memorial coins from the found silver in the sea! Anyway who cares, money is paper and silver is silver!


I was in a hurry in the city early to go sort out some things and had written down that I wanted to get clay after the coin shop. I have not the first clue about pouring molten metals but I love to just jump in the deep end and get in there, its the best way to learn for me. I was thinking where to get clay and then thought of the "Hobby" shop. They had many different clay's and after a long discussion about the monetary system with the women at the till, we decided on a clay that was dense. I told her im not sure if I have a kiln to use, but anyway I want to pour silver onto it to make a bar.

Just so you know, I have no F'in clue about this all, and after this post is up I'll watch some pootube vids, ill see on dtube- steempourers first if that's a thing obviously!

My friend knows what his doing, and he says we can do something, whatever that means! Heres the sacrifice (Below) -200g. I was going to take just 5 coins but if it goes good then ill do 2 bars of 100g. I have thinking about it now, a group of friends who started since a year or so, their own blacksmith in Fredrikstad. We arrived to Oslo at the same time and were sharing the guest room at a squat there. I should go visit them too! I would really like to get at least one of the two blacksmiths onto Steemit, ill get them an instant account if they will be up for it. Scandinavian Steempourers are needed to cut the postage costs from USA!

I will document what we do with the silver , it will be fun, a masterpiece of chaos im sure. And something that I and any other freeman needs to learn for the future, how to separate metals without cutting them, thus needing no electric to have control of your finances!

I'm off to do research a bit, a smoke a fat one in bed! Up early and on an adventure- Movingman hasn't really moved in a while! Ill take the guitar to play somewhere for the train fair home - ahhhhh really I could just be a hobo bum forever. I love it.

The silversmithing projects sounds really interesting.
Take some nice photos and enjoy Hamar!

Btw, is there a specific shop where you buy silver in Oslo ?

Hi mate, ive only ever gone to mynte buttiikn på prinsens gate, but if you want more than coins, Travex by nille at the end of karl jihan, my screen is cracked haha,aslo I saw there is alot of people sellin on finn (im sure they are selling it to reinvest in crypto!)

Let me know if the stackitus has started on you now also!

I remember having a 1923 silver dollar many years ago, which i unfortunately lost/misplaced. It was like that one.

Silver coins have a special charm.I will have a look at the silver shop when I find the time. Perhaps an old Scandinavian silver coin is waiting for me!

I love your masterpieces of chaos - you're what makes Steemit great. x

Oh no! Man what happened, did you fall into a shop selling silver?!

Not yet! I haven't been that lucky but I've been keeping my eyes open. I have invested in gold-related crypto. I always keep a silver chain around me neck. It's similar to pirates keeping gold earrings to pay for their burial so they wouldn't be thrown over at sea Lol. But I have it in case I ever need to barter and have nothing else.

Your a pirate also! You have some digiaox whatever it's called- Dgd?

Yes! I am! That's the one!

Oooohhh yeh, well worth having some of those man!!

Yeah man! I did a lot of research into it

I didnt lol. Just looked at the website and then saw if anybody else had started it already! I only got 2 but thats cool, for know, best to get many different ones than just one. Dam im still composing this epic silver melting time away! peace and freedom!

I want also one MKR, forgot to buy it when it was half price hahahaahahaha
