The Rutherford Forge logo is the medieval alchemy symbol for PULVERISE.  Forging is an medieval craft, invloving a certain amount of alchemy and a great deal of pulverising.  H is also my initial which the symbol resembles.

My forge is conveniently located in my back yard in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa.
