Shop tour of smithing area (video)

Can wait to see what you did with the track.  Saw your video of the spike opener and thought I'd share the tool I use for twisting spikes.  It allows you to twist from the head or anywhere on the spike as I cut grooves in the jaws and then welded steel plates to keep the head from being able to slip out.

 

I like your determination & resourcefulness.  Keep it up!  Here are some of the openers I've made.  I also go to pawn shops and buy the cheap wrenches made in China to turn into openers which I sell at places like Auto parts stores.
