LDW Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 We had a great meeting today. Brian showed how to make a Punch and a chisel at first, then talked about some of the elements of forging. He made a horseshoe heart since Valentines day is around the corner, and then a young man had brought a billet of 1045 and was wanting to make a hammer. Brian had made some tools for the shop last year so we had the necessary tools to accomplish the hammer. It was a very educational day for everyone and we had three or four fires going after the Iron in the hat for several hours. Bill helped a young man that came, it was his first time forging and he had a lot of fun. Here are the pics. https://picasaweb.google.com/LDWynn/February2011MFCMeeting# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
