ripleycopa Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 A new project in the Tom Kennon Blacksmith Shop last Saturday; one of a matched pair of shelf supports or individual hanging basket holders. A 1.25 inch by 1/4 inch base plate was fullered at the ends and drawn out into leaf motifs and textured. A 1 inch by 1/4 inch bar was textured, drawn out to a taper on one end and a fishtail scroll on the other end and bent through a 90 degree angle. A one inch by 3/ 16 inch bar was forged into a snub end "S" scroll using a scroll form. The three pieces were riveted together through drilled holes with copper rivets and the entire assembly power wire brushed. The fishtail and the leaves were brushed with a brass brush to highlight those areas and everything sprayed with a clear acrylic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
