Timothy Miller Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 These are a few tools I made. I'm proud of my children Just wanted to show them off before I put them in a box and ship them off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentiron1946 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Nice finish on the heads! That is a nice little stake anvil and those mushroom stakes are really nice too. Are they all one piece forged or are the heads welded on? :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Miller Posted November 28, 2010 Author Share Posted November 28, 2010 Thanks I have put a lot of effort into developing my grinding and polishing skills. I do not forge weld those together. I just bevel them deeply and mig weld them together. Have forge welded bicks together but those were made from wrought iron with a steel face. I don't think my end users would care either way. I have never gotten a return so I think I am doing a good job. I sell them to a jeweler supply on the west coast. I have been making silversmiths tools for about 10 years. the bicks are W1 steel hardened and tempered with a mild steel shank. This is my second job I guess after the ornamental work. As I tend to do them on nights and weekends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
