  1. Oh and here I was thinking when you made a leaf spring knife you had to cut it down first
  2. this is the way I would do it you will find that most sparky's are more than happy to come out and have a look at what you want to do make sure you can tell them what you would like to run in your shed and they will let you know your best option just make sure you let them know that you would like to do the grunt work before you call them out
  3. I like it but for some reason I like it more when the bottom long piece points right But then again that's just me haha only just seen the leaf make it movable please everyone
  4. How do you know what pressure it is reaching?
  5. Pic of your valve would help does it have an Allen key in it?
  6. http://www.iforgeiron.com/topic/3602-thomas-powers-applied-anvil-acquisition-technique/ this is as close as it gets
  7. that would be biggundoctor I think he or his dad had some cut out but I think they were one piece
  8. that's what they are called here but apparently everywhere else they are called a hand spear according to google this is a common name for a pet maybe if I had a cat you can get the rubber at any good fishing shop fashion the ends of the ging like this and use something like this to attach the patch and fasten with a wrap and knot of cord
  9. Could you not just use form ply and then just let it rott ? Our septic tanks here are only 5' round yours may be different
  10. Aerates the ferric acid seems to make it work better ferric acid is also used to clean up profile cut pieces and is reported to work better when aerated I suppose it moves the liquid around
  11. Wow for some reason I keep thinking "Guy Fawkes" but then I remember back when I was 14 and built a sorta lean too for my push bikes probably looked like that but I have fonder memories of it please keep us posted would like to see it finished and some nice work coming out of it fergy
  12. Ausfire use cast rods when welding cast to steel daswulf you had some scanners that were just all flat like they were punched outta plate ,do you think that you could make them look like the drop forged ones easily
  13. Went looking and found this http://www.foxnews.com/health/2013/03/11/study-says-treat-burn-with-warm-water-not-cold.html not getting into the argument was only looking for heat transfer rates for water and found this article Glad I'm not a rat though
  14. If you forge balls on the end you can use jelly rubber like used on gidgies then use a piece of cord on the other end tied through a bead to attach your patch because the jelly rubber is hollow you push it over the bead/balls and secure it with another piece of cord like a hose clamp normally using a leather patch about the size of a belt buckle ( not a Texas one) to hold your shot
  15. Nice work i come across like 1 of them old spanners a year. Where do you find all those? are the handles cast?
  16. those crosses look awesome ausfire sounds like you just threw a challenge out there regarding getting a metre out of a spike pics or it didn't happen please people those two crosses on the right have really kept there patina and look great fergy
  17. Yeah ausfire that would be good. Things are going well here but all doom and gloom up in Perth and up north at the moment on the work front
  18. Please link the build thread for the anvil you just treated fergy
  19. That is such a nice piece nothing overlooked and lines that just flow the detail is amazing in every way a true WORK of art it would be a shame to see it leave the shed, one must get attached to a piece like this
  20. Well if it's just starting to grow, I would be watchful. I hear the way things go, the higher the post count, the more glorious the neck beard... a gem from Exo313 Cracked me up but so true No one mention SS
  21. Daniel from WA here just found the roll call
  22. Universal column thicker and heavyer than universal beam to get some mass under the anvil also normally found easy at the scrappy
  23. I would get the base machined flat and then drill it and tap it and put two or three large (1") studs into it I would then find some UC and weld a base plate and top plate to the UC after working out what height you want it then the anvil can be bolted to the UC and the UC to the floor and then tool holders can be welded to the UC
  24. Spotted this on flee bay looking for an anvil is anyone going to own up to having one? 1924 Russian silver 50 kopeks
