nuge Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Nice. The asymmetry of the backplate is attractive. What motivated you to do it that way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwaterforge Posted September 6, 2011 Author Share Posted September 6, 2011 Thank you for all your replies! The back plate is a mosaic of a bunch of scrap ends that were cut off pieces from a recent project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwaterforge Posted September 7, 2011 Author Share Posted September 7, 2011 Will video the next one and put it on u-tube. The punches are basic. Center punch, eye punch, small bob punch, large bob punch, chisel and cut the ears with a porta band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jura T Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Will video the next one and put it on u-tube. Great. I'm looking forward to seeing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Menard Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 In Northern Italy, Florence and Senna specifically, on the outsides of many of the buildings they are rings similar to this that are for tethering horses. They incorporate similar styling and textures, I was reminded of them when I saw this piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
