territorialmillworks Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I was busy yesterday making crosses for the first time. Managed to get 10 done before running out of propane (Had to rob the BBQ grill again LOL) I placed some of them in the oven on the broil setting to draw the blue and gold color. Bases were plasma cut at an angle and then stacked one on top of another to get some depth Taking the ones pictured here to the staff at church this morning.

Frosty Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Sweet! Folk really like getting an iron cross. I'm going to have to work on mine to get them so nice. Frosty the Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkrankow Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 I like the oven idea for temper coloring. Seems more even in nature. Very nicely done. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billp Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I like your base better then mine it looks really good. I posted a couple pictures of mine which I sell these at my churches book store. The twisted cross is something my wife asked for. I do a single like you but don't have any at home as they are all at the book store. Again real nice job yours real do look good billp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquamanlr Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I would like to say Nice work on the crosses. I think that using the oven to do the temper color is a good touch, I can never keep it even on the whole project. LeeRoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
