Ed Steinkirchner Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 recently I was forging some branching scrolls and while they were heating i picked up a piece of scrap off the shop floor, 3/8" x 1 1/4" x about 3", and made this between the scroll's heats. stands about 7 inches or better tall and has no base, but can hold a 3 pound hammer head without falling over!

MOblacksmith0530 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nice piece. Didn't burn any scroll did you? I try to many irons in the fire all the time sometimes with sucess sometimes not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironstein Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I like it! The eyes are great. If I have more than one iron in the fire I wind up burning stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Salvati Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Cool work Ed, I like him! What is the mark on his chest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeremy k Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Ed - Is that what you made it for? - to hold your hammer? Sam - It could be the "ironman" logo LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Salvati Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Jeremy that would be awesome!!! In the Legend of the golem, which is an old jewish legend I think, there is supposedly a sacred symbol that you inscribe on a golem to bring it to life, just wondering if he found that symbol :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 IIRC it was a scrap of parchment inserted in his mouth with the appropriate inscription... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Steinkirchner Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 no, didn't burn any scrolls, and the mark on the chest is my touchmark, hard to tell because the lighting is so terrible. I am pretty sure they don't make ancient hebrew letter stamps any way. :blink: I actually ended up giving it away to a friend of mine in trade for some kaowool and other gas forge supplies.
