Jose Gomez Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 After a long break sponsored by moving into a new house I was finally able to get back into the shop and do some pounding. I had several billets in various stages of completion so I decided to knock out a few of the partially completed bars along with putting together a new pattern. Here's a few shots of the recent bars. This one is a mosaic bar made of 15n20, 1080, and a few nickel welding rods. I call this one Blast pattern. This is yet another mosaic bar forged from 15n20 and o1 that I refer to as shockwave pattern Here's a little critter that I call earthquake pattern. It is a W pattern bar forged from 15n20, 1080, and a few nickel scraps. This is a shot of the bars side by side just for kicks And finally my newest pattern. It is (suprise, suprise) forged from 15n20, 1080, nickel welding rods, and a chainsaw file for the dot in the center. I have not come up with a name for this pattern yet, but I'm sure that someone here can help. So whatcha think???? any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete46 Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I'd call it dull chainsaw! Very nice though! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edge9001 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 it kind of reminds me of a cherry blossom. although it makes me think of a phoenix. this seems kind of fitting since it was born of fire.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheftjcook Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Very Nice!!! How 'bout "FTD"... Fire Tie dye or Forged Tie Dye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Sells Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I like the tie dye term ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K. Bryan Morgan Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I really like all those patterns. The one your searching for a name for reminds me of a Super Nova. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Gomez Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thanks everyone! I like all of the ideas! I already have a Pinwheel and a Spiderweb pattern (I'll dig up a few pictures and post them), Wormhole and Timehole are cool (Now I'll have to forge patterns to mach the names)....Wellllll now.... Fire Tie dye or Forged Tie Dye....This line could be super fun...My head is spinning with cool inspiration! Thanks! Personally I'm feeling either ground Zero Or Supernova are in the lead with me! Keep em coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
