brianbrazealblacksmith Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Well, the conference is over, but a few people wanted to make some hammers today. They said they want to make the same fullering hammer. I used mine alot this weekend at the conference to explain how to move metal. I have to go and set the shop back up, but I wanted to say how impressed I was with your hammer. That is some really nice work and it looks like you've made alot of other nice tools in that picture. Thanks for posting! And I hope we do get to meet up in the future and forge together! Brian Quote
keithgartner Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Your hammer looks great, as does your shop and other tools. The barbecue looked good also. Quote
Mark Wargo New2bs Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 That is a good looking hammer. You'll be happy with the way you move metal with that. Mark Quote
LDW Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 That is a beautiful hammer, I sure wish I had one like that. Quote
Mainely,Bob Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 That is a beautiful hammer, I sure wish I had one like that. All you need`s an introduction. I hear Brian`s real good about taking in strays. ;) Quote
Cross Pein Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Great looking hammer. I must admit I am a little disturbed to learn that you eat hot-dogs in France. ;) Quote
brutaldeluxe Posted June 2, 2010 Author Posted June 2, 2010 tanks cross pein !! it's not "hot dog" juste a good french sausage (you have many different in france!!!) hot dog and cheddar aren't a french speciality.... but good food specialitys are traditionnal in many family!!!!! :P Quote
