Frosty Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 That's quite the railing David, I see happy customers in your future. What did you use to buck the bronze medallions when you peined the tenons? Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you use to buck the bronze medallions when you peined the tenons? Used a rivet set I made years back then drilled a hole the same size of the set thru a 2 x 4 x 4 steel chunk I had and then poked the set thru and welded it. Then I put my 140lb soaking wet apprentice behind that. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 How long does your apprentice stay wet enough to work? Making a set is probably better than a special buck and hand peining the heads. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powder coating on the rail, and clear coating on the copper. On 5/4/2019 at 5:13 PM, Frosty said: How long does your apprentice stay wet enough to work?
