Last Tuesday I had a forge fire that nearly got away from me

I was heating up a 6-inch spring-steel piece for a demo and a coal pocket popped, sending sparks into my canvas apron... caught a corner on fire before I could even react. Neighbor's kid saw the whole thing from his window and yelled "you're on fire, mister!" over the fence. Anyone else ever have a forge mishap turn into an unexpected spectator sport?

Kid saved your hide. Good neighbor." Yeah @olivere30 you're right. Best thing you can do is keep a spare key hidden for them too, just in case they ever lock themselves out. Always good to balance the scales.
