blacksmith777 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Yesterday, one client asked for a sculpture of standing pig, about 5-6 inches long. It's a big challenge for me. Forge solid bar? Plate?Make apart and rivet them? Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bentiron1946 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 What a question, yes, I like all your ideas, make one each way and since I like rivets make three little pigs that a way and a wolf and a little brick house too. Sounds like a fun project. If you don't do the rivets really tight you can make the legs move on all the critters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
