brianbrazealblacksmith Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Thanks, guys! These also make nice pendants and napkin rings. Like I said before, my most profitable job so far as a blacksmith was making 500 napkin ring hearts for a wedding party finished in two days. More and more weddings are giving away table gifts, and these are a lot more permanent than a small box of candy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Roy Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I made a bunch of these last year and they were popular. I'll be making more. Thanks for posting the pictures and video, they are great reminders of "how to." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker101z Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Really cool! A heart was actually one of the first things I made. Dont ask me how the weld got there, no joke it just happened. Cant say I wasnt pleased, as was my girlfriend. Cant wait to try your method though. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yves Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 The price question: what do you (Brian Brazeal and all of you) sell them for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianbrazealblacksmith Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 It depends on how many someone wants. If someone orders 50 or more, I charge $5 a piece. Otherwise I charge $10 to $20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yves Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Brian Brazeal Thanks. These are the prices I was playing with in my mind. After studying your video, I hammered out seven or eight hearts. I will give it a serious try for Valentine's day. While I am here, I want to thank you for your generosity. When I look at your videos or read your posts here on Iforgeiron, going back to my forge, I have more confidence, I try new things and have a feeling of moving forward.These hearts for instance have solved for me the problem of bending square corners. It is so simple, so elegant a solution. I have made squares for a customer to hold records and stuff on a wall. My corners, eventhough they are not seen, do not please me. They are not square enough. I plan on hanging books of mine on the walls of my office space. The quares will have these corners. Again thank you for the hearts, for the slitter geometry and for all your generosity.

JHCC Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 There was an "upgrade" to the forum software a few years back, and a LOT of photos were lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
