I found this at the scrapyard when looking for shapes. The shape I was looking for was round shapes and this just jumped out at me. Looked great for making bowls. Of course it needs a little altering, but it has a good base to mount in the vise and you can use it to form over or into. But what was it??? .....................Duck

I used to have two of these. Picked them up for free. Gave one to a friend. The other floated around the shop for years and I rarely used it. I finally sold it way too cheap and now I really need it and I wish I had it BACK!

The Blacksmith must use Hammer and Flame to force the iron down the path of his own choosing.
I usually find it much easier to be wrong once in while than to try to be perfect.
