Frosty Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I really like the coat rack idea. Your Mom will love it, no Mom in the history of Moms has ever not loved a gift made by one of the kids. The dinner bell's a little off? We know you well enough to see it as perfectly you. Besides triangle bells shouldn't be even all round or they don't ring well. Nice details on the hanger and leaves, very attractive. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan C Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 You do nice work! I hope your elbow continues to heal, I hate being held back by joint pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiltsbilt Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 ya I know totally sucked but I figured out what I was doing wrong and fixed it so that's good.. got a couple more pics with better lighting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastRonin Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I think it looks great. What would you think of having the string it hangs from tied on at the loop of the leaf stem? It just looks to me like that's where it wants to be... the leaf would look natural hanging down that way... Not at all saying that the way you did it was wrong btw.

Camero68 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Both projects are fantastic, the coat rack has a great and symmetrical design and the bell looks good with the leaf accents. I'm sure Mom will like those useful stuff for the house. Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan C Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I scanned thru some of the other pics on your site, very nice work indeed! Do you roll the forge typically outside? I didn't see how you were venting the fumes in one of the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
