    3 inch taper...
  2. Eric W.
    Good afternoon. I have been practicing the ABANA taper lesson and wanted to change it up a bit so I figured I could go to octagon after I had my 3 inch square. When I start to forge the corners down, a twist is imparted. I am sure I am doing something wrong, but can’t find anything online saying why the twist is happening I even use the “site:iforgeiron.com” search string. I am heating up to a bright orange heat, using slot tongs to hold the 1/2 inch square bar. I am using a proper anvil and a Hofi style hammer. Any tips or ideas that you could give?
