  1. I'm either making castors or I'm leaning to some sort of like a wagon stile with basically two axles where one can rotate.
  2. I'm going to make a table for the yard, steel base (probably). But I want to be able to move it around. So I made some wheels. Not the most common thing to start with when making a table.
  3. Yes it is from a museum. The barrel is also from a museum, it is vine making exhibit. The large hole is for cleaning the barrel.
  4. Varazdin, Croatia. I found the plug holder on the barrel interesting usually they are also made from wood.
  5. And there it is. Thanks Frosty. Now it seems obvious.
  6. Well it's not my anvil but I wouldn't want to start a new topic for a potentially a stupid question. I'm on vacation and there is little bar called Old Forge (closed at the moment, it is still out of season), there is an anvil for decoration. I thought that the holes for moving the anvil mean that it is a forged anvil and the absence of the holes that it is cast. Now this anvil has legs that look cast but also has holes. What am I missing?

    WOW that is beautifull.
  8. Whaaaaat? Quit your day job because you are a natural at this. Keep at it, we will follow your development with great interest.
  9. Made a butchers knife. It is a bit too big for deboning chicken drumsticks. But that was the task at hand.
  10. Thank you Irondragon, but after googling blacksmith memorial bouquet I don't think it would work.
  11. Years ago I used to work as a mechanic, fixing heavy trucks (not cars). And I found this knife on the engine jammed in between the heads. I'm guessing that whoever worked on the engine before lost it there. I have no information on it, but it is obviously forged. I cleaned it up and sharpened it and just used it in the kitchen today. The fuller is just on one side.
  12. So I made a small one. Unfortunately the spar broke when I was widening the hole so it is welded and I should have made it a bit bigger. I like the big one more. But I do like this theme, maybe I'll explore different ship designs.
  13. That is a nice hook Billy. JHCC that is a genius design, I was looking at it thinking how that lever looks funny how are you gonna hold it shaped like that. Then I realised that it is not for pressing down, that it holds it self. Excellent.
  14. I went down the rabbit hole of viking ships, because of this debate. And if Viking ever made a two spar mast it would look like this. https://www.eldjarnbaat.no/index.php/byggeklipp?id=16
