That looks like a simple but effective tool. I will be making that. Thanks.
-
That is unexpected and horrible. Rest in peace.

Thank you, it is even more lovely when it rhymes.

I like that. Could you please write it out in German also. I'm havin touble reading it from the picture.

Somebody I know went to the museum, so I asked if she could take a picture of the description of the item #257. And it just says HAYFORK. Well that is probably wrong.

Rest in peace. I have never heard of the poem, Frosty. It's lovely, I'll remember that one.

Sorry Billy, no idea. Can't remember everything. But as Frosty said maybe it's just someones guess. The descriptions are just general descriptions. Tongs, key, knife.

I've visited the archeological museum in Zagreb. There are many interesting artefacts, but for us it is the metal work. Artefacts are from a Roman city called Siscia, today it is a modern city Sisak (Croatia), dated from 1. to 4. century.

Honestly I don't think I've seen a slit grate before either. But if it wasn't changed by the guys using it, then it must be fine. The blades rotate easily by hand. The motor looks simple enough in construction that I think it won't be a problem getting it in working order.

I got myself a coal forge. It's from a mechanic shop. The man that worked there said they used it for bending leaf springs, fitting them to trucks and buses. But that's not being done for at least 35 years. I don't know if the blower works, the wiring needs to be redone.

Not a candle holder but it is half of a boat. I was asked to make a siluet of a man fishing. From a drawing made by the person that asked. I made it but wasn't pleased with it. So I made half a boat to go with it.

Nice. I like that.

Welding Cart Fabrication Project
Davor replied to Steamboat's topic in Welding/Fab General Discussion
Bought myself a little combination stick/mig welder. So I had to make a cart. The back wheels are as far back as possible and the handle in the back is so I can tilt the whole thing just on the back wheels. That will make it easier to move on ruff ground. The bottle is therefore secured with a metal ring rather than a chain. -
What did you do in the shop today?

Very close to me there is a small castle, built in 1904. And it was renovated a year ago. There are new window grates, they look very clean and well made. If they are welded it is very well hidden, it looks like the only thing holding it together are rivets and bands. Dvorac (Castle) Dioš.

Nice sign, I like it. -
I trimmed the ears a bit and made the head a bit more round. And gave it to my veterinarian, he wanted me to make him the cat head. And he gave it a paint job. I think it looks great now. It would have never thought of giving it an elaborate paint pattern.
-
Trying to figure out how to make a cat head. Can't find any examples on the internet. So here is my attempt.

Peening hammer and a screwdriver. Very happy about the screwdriver, I've only seen them on the internet. Scrap yard find.
