Ten Hammers Posted July 2, 2011 Posted July 2, 2011 Sincere thank you for the thumbnails. I can then watch them listening to Rory Gallagher. By the way the work you folks accomplished is impeccable work. I see no real way for me to ever visit Ireland but you never know. The land of my Great Grandfather and Great Grandmother. The net has really changed the world. Thanks again. Steve O'Grady Bloomfield Iowa USA Quote

ironstein Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 The showpiece for everyones work is spectacular in and of itself. A rocket shaped yett? Must have been quite an accomplishment to make. Great work by all, thanks Myloh67 and Ironclad for showing this to all of us. Very inspiring. I was avoiding the shop this weekend since it is 100+ outside, but i think i can avoid it no longer!

ironclad Posted July 4, 2011 Posted July 4, 2011 many thanks Ironstein, and to Mark keeling the man who built the "hive" (iaba) it was a great experience to be there, the sheer work involved in constructing this must have been immense. And my thanks to all the blacksmiths on this site for there many truly inspiring contributions to this beautiful art, long may you inspire us. Go raibh maith agat, Chris. Quote
