brianbrazealblacksmith Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 David came by this morning with his dad, my friend, Mark. David is on Spring break and he was here this morning, and he stayed all day. Look at what he made his first day! Oh, David is 10 years old.

brianbrazealblacksmith Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 Here's what David did this morning. He did all the striking and did a very good job at it. We started with 1 1/4"x 1/4" just like is shown in the picture. He had to move a bit of steel. He also brought his hammers and his dad's hammer that we helped his dad make last year. He made and designed the cross for his mom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick L. Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 David is doing a great job! It's easy to see he both enjoys and appreciates the opportunity he has been given. Brian you are doing a great job as well Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianbrazealblacksmith Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Thank you, guys. I think I get more out of these opportunities than David. I love it, but I love sharing it with someone that's interested, more. I could see David get better every time he tried, and he could see it, too. You could hear it!
