Charles McDonald Members May 25, 201214 yr Author stats Thank you all very much for the kind words! Prokopto: I no longer have this so I cant measure it, but I recall it being around 1 1/2" with a pin at 2 3/8" long. I used 1/4 inch round to make the whole thing.

I think I may light the forge after church today and give one a try.
