January 18, 201610 yr Greetings Yesteryear, As I would expect an over the top job . Starting with 3/8 you had a bit of forging to do.. That would look much better on my table.. What did you use for the final finish? Well designed and I am sure it was fun to make.. Forge on and make beautiful things Jim
January 18, 201610 yr Author Thanks Jim It was rather fun to make It actually started out as 1/2 inch thick stock / final finish is clear lacquer Mike
January 18, 201610 yr Beautiful design and great execution. Definite show piece! Half inch thick at start???!!!!!! wow!
January 18, 201610 yr Over the top is a good adjective, Frosty dittos! I love forging copper but have never tried that thick. How many times did you have to anneal it, or did you work it hot? Frosty The Lucky.
