I don't know about the gate addmission fee. but i'll be there demoing in the vendors area..got a few projects in mind. hope to see you there

I second SGropp....way oil is the way to go. use it all the time..

well done..The combination of the sculpture and the photography is a really nice touch..congratulations on your solo show..

good looking dragon..what kind of finish did you use..? looks like a fun project...thanks for sharing..

saintjohn...works kind of like a tuning fork.after I form the cup in the bell I heat it up to yellow and quench it to put it under tension. that seem to help with the sound.

apprenticeman...I have never seen that version before but it makes sense..gives me ideas

Its friday again...been trying to utilize down time to work on small projects and at the same time work on hammer control and what to demo at our up coming NC ABANA metting at Oak Hill Iron(home of BIG BLU)..for some reason I've been focussing on the Bell..This one started with 3/4 x 2 inch flat 26 inches long and the rest of the parts started with 1 1/4 round..I may tweek the proportions a bit next saturday. but I think this may make a pretty entertaining demo..jsut thought i'd share..hope to see some of you folks next saturday.

very cool..I wish I had the time to do that!!

brothers..I personally don't have a power hammer. I have access to some at work..
