Tim McCoy Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 While letting Christmas dinner settle in I ran across this 6 part series about ornamental iron work. Here's a link into the series. It includes rebuilding a Yellin Gate in 1987 ... perhaps you have not seen it yet. Enjoy and Happy New Year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connor bachmann Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 very nice, I've seen this. Unfortunately they're using mild steel, so one of the parts came out differently from the original, because mild steel doesn't split as well as wrought. Excellent work, though, I've always wanted to make a gate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fciron Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Dang. A star studded cast! In no. 4 a guy quenches his forged welded fleur-de-lis as the final step. I was always taught not to quench a forge weld. Does anyone know the reasoning behind quenching it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
