Frosty sounds great but I dont have a lathe I use a 3 hole gizmo with long handles. I thread the stock through a piece of 1" pipe and that helps it stay stright (I cut a window in the pipe so I can see how the twist is progressing). Then twist til it looks right and finish. Thanks William

I agree with Tom. Having been a volunteer firefighter there are regulations on window bars. If some one gets trapped in a fire it may come back and bite you. The idea is great so get the information and go for it.
