    Dave, first you need to define "goldsmith". Not kidding, there's not
    a single thing that is that. Occasionally we need to lift something
    like a container of investment, and yes the mill and drawplates
    require some strength. I'd say the real strength and force is in the
    hands, though. And upper body strength. Sometimes it's not force so
    much as force with extreme control, which requires strength.
