The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross. By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free gift.

It's a common thing in blacksmithing, even a silversmith once told me they never really stopped burning themselves. It's all to easy to forget an obscure little detail when you're tired or rushing, like that an angle grinder can get metal hot enough to burn you. Personally if the burn isn't too deep, I just rub it in so it goes straight to secondary mode of healing and doesn't linger.

He can control the oxygen to be starved from the pepper, drill a hole into the can to breathe, and use the right forging pattern, including the fast his flat mechanical hammer to shake those scales off and create a flatter surface. Also, he did not use a pipe wrench but instead used a squared hole leverage device to twist his piece to help it stay straighter.
