Process started with cleaning up the bent leg, and getting the forge ready.
The first heat, and my weapon of choice.
Second heat. Slow going, but making progress.
Final heat, and some fine tuning.
First test fit is pretty good. Still needs a little side to side adjustment.
After one more heat and a little more tweaking. Good enough for me.
After fine tuning the fit of the jaws. I had to make the spring.
