Sask Mark Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 BP So I was in my shop today looking at the nails on the rafters (you know, the place where you hang everything?), and said to myself, 'Dang, I have tooooo many zip discs! No what am I gonna do about it?' So I made these....things. Here's my shop assistant with her anvil and the marshmallow roasting stick that she made: and here's the assistant with the assistant's assistant (it looks like he just came from digging up a bag of coal for me): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstermetal Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Great looking helpers you got there... And looks to be a good use of zip disks as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sask Mark Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Thanks guys. The kids prevent me from playing in the shop more often...but they're worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesteryearforge Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Nice work I really like the one on the right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sask Mark Posted August 10, 2011 Author Share Posted August 10, 2011 Thanks Mr. Tanner. Regarding the one on the right, I was lying in bed one night and was wondering what would happen if I did 'this' to a bar then twisted it. I'm sure it has been done before, but I haven't done it before. It turned out better than I thought it would. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesteryearforge Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 My name is Mike --- Mr Tanner is my fathers name ( i'm only 60 ) Thats a nice looking Anvil too ! Is that a power hammer in the background ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sask Mark Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thanks Mike. That anvil is the 450 pound Peter Wright that I repaired. I used Junior Strasil's method and the repairs are holding up very well. The power hammer is a 25 pound Western Giant (Little Giant clone). I know of at least 3 different LG clones that were sold in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sask Mark Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 Your entire shop makes me drool every time I see it. I would love to see your large Refflinghaus in real life. I doubt the pictures do it justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
