  4. Hi! rosettes are handmade!! I do not have pneumatic hammer: (, all hand-forged on the anvil:)
  5. Pretty chandelier:) I especially like how you did fitting candle.! As for me, a little ground does not match the rest of optically is too heavy. Softer and more slender basis for much better to fit this project:)
  6. This is my chandelier that I made months ago to my studio:)
  7. Railings made of angle! I cut out the material first and then forged on the anvil. The whole is riveted and painted with graphite paint & patina This is my new project which I will do for the private The client in Ireland.
  8. Hi all after a long break! It's one of my new work, a piece of railing. all done without welding, using traditional methods.
  9. Keep on doing new works. Create something new, perhaps develop an idea you've been sketching and actually make it. Experiment. Apply and make proposals for competitions, public art commissions, etc. Take your new work and apply for an award with it. I don't know about the USA, but in Ireland and europe in general there is lots of opportunity offered by different art schemes and art/craft councils and so on. Use the free time to develop and grow and try new things
  10. The black oxydation was achieved with linsid oil and the brass patina by brushing over the steel with a brass-wire brush. Both on hot metal (cooler than red hot) Pretty simple processes. Myloh, this piece has never seen a powerhammer I simply don't have one around, at least not yet. Attached are some pics for you on how it was done. Thank you everyone for all the comments.
  11. One of two of my latest works. Working on this project proved to be a good refresher because I haven't done purely traditional blacksmithing work in a while. Also, this is a small version of a similar large-scale design of mine that will be created at an upcoming forge-in in Co. Roscommon, Ireland. I'm looking forward to it. Mostly made from flat steel lengths and a square section for support to base. 190cm tall and streches about 40cm The finished work has brass patina. The black and white and the blue sky photos are before patina. I'm always looking for critique, suggestions, comments, or questions so fire off :)

    Tree 2

    A concept sketch of a more realistic tree sculpture. I like to go a bit figurative and take a contemporary approach to some of my works. Needs some more thinking. Going to be forged except I need to find coke in Ireland first.
