I Forge Iron

First completed Christmas gift


Recommended Posts

A family invited us over for a Spanish (Catillano, not Latino) Christmas get-together. I have only met the husband and wife once and they were evidently impressed with us:o So I figured I would bring along a gift from us to them.

made from 3/4" square, cut and split. textured with a narrow cross pein. polished to shiny then oxidized for coloring - purple outside to straw inside. overall height is about 7.25 inches. bottom was drilled and tapped, and the base is oak scrap painted with felt glued to the bottom. Cross is beeswaxed, the base is spray laquered.

I know they are strong Christians, so I hope they like it.
