Sabre Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 not to clog up the page but i was in a thread makin mood. i made this hopin to make it a candel holder but my idea sort of vanished! does anyone have any hints or tips on what to use this for? thanks Quote
Frosty Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 It'd make a good holder for a thin towel or maybe something to put on a shelf till something hits you. I have a number of those kinds of things around. I was cleaning out more stuff in the shop and started running across practice pieces some of my student's made. For some reason they just don't want to keep the piece they have to upset. I guess just knowing why it's called upsetting is enough and they don't need an example to remember by. Frosty Quote
KevinD Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 I can't really tell how long it is but it might make a cool S hook. Quote
stonetrooper Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Back scratcher. Definitely a back scratcher. Quote
Sabre Posted June 13, 2008 Author Posted June 13, 2008 looks like a door pull to me. yes i thought that to... maby for the shed or shop Quote
fat pete Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 you could make hooks with a fold over top and have a coat hanger....i would bang out them leaves a little more tho Quote
FieryFurnace Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Thin the whole piece down, leaving the ends as they are. Then double it onto itself making a thing that looks like a magnifying glass. (A round frame on top with two stands of steel, side by side, on the bottom.) Clamp the two strands in a vice while it is red hot and stick a piece of steel in the hole and twist. This takes practice to get down and keep the twist strait, but when successfull it looks great. Good luck! The kidsmith, Dave Custer Quote
