This weekend I tried pattern welding for the 1st time. I welded up a 12 layer billet (6 layers of 1/16" 15N20 alternating with 6 layers of 1/16" mild steel) and gave it a twist. I made this pendant with part of the billet. This is just polished to 200 grit and etched with vinegar to see the pattern. I don't think it turned out too bad. My next step is to polish it more then get it hot blued.

Thanks Mitch. It is 1 1/4" wide x 2 7/8" high.

The limiting step in completing it will be the hot bluing. I will have to have a gunsmith do it and I don't know how often they do bluing batches.

VERY nice and cool looking Mark, been looking at doing things like that myself. There is going to be a course on Demascus here at NAIT sometime, but I will be busy as usual.
