clinton Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I made a steak turner and fork with 3d horse heads they came out pretty nice I used my brother striking on the fork he has never forged anything but we were able to get a tapper that looks ok I could twist it to hide imperfections but I think its fine as is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurlyGeorge Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Good job, Clinton. What size stock did you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clinton Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 that was 3/4 square stock george just used what i have from material that i salvaged off the job that is about as big as i would try to do single handed the turner i did myself it is alot to draw out by hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dablacksmith Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 nice horse heads! 3/4 is a lot to draw down by hand .I usually use that for fireplace tools and draw with a power hammer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstein Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Yeah that looks like a work-out to draw that out! Those came out nice though, good work Clinton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donnie Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Nice job. Like mentioned above, 3/4 is a lot of drawing by hand. Could I use smaller stock and make shetland pony heads instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
