I haven't even attempted forge welding yet! As far as I could tell, the only forge welding I would've need to do was on the leaves. Instead of forge welding them, I did them with a different shape at the base, wrapped them around the stem, and then arc welded them to the stem with some 1/16" 6013. It worked out ok, but I'm thinking that forge welding them on would've looked better. Oh yeah, I used the rose blanks from Kayne & Son, and I used the demo on anvilfire from Bill Epps.
