Eddie Mullins Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I made this hardy today out of an axle. It was a first attempt for me, no fuller , no flatter, just a cross peen. I am pretty pleased for a 1st try. I really like the way it locks in place and doesn't wobble around. Not the prettiest, but hey function is what counts, right : ) .

petere76 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Ed, Looks good to me. Two axioms that have always worked well for folks like us, " Form follows function and work with tools you got" . You are certainly on the right track. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
windancer Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Great job, Eddie. That will probably last as long as you do! Now use it to make stuff and post more pics :) Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Coke Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Greetings Eddie, Slick new tool... Judging by the slag pile you worked hard at that one... Keep up the good work... Forge on and make beautiful things Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaughnT Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Very good work. The smooth face of the bevel shows that you have good hammer control. She'll definitely get the job done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Mullins Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Thanks. This did give me a bit of a workout, but I hope to get many years use out of it. Peter - we are definitely on the same page! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elemental Metal Creations Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Looks good, have you used it yet? If not you will be amazed at how much better it works than the straight ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
