LDW Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Ernie Dorrill was our demonstrator and did a great job discussing the tools then using them to form a couple different styles of leaves. When Ernie goes to learn something he carries the necessary tools to do just that. He stressed that pencil and paper are a necessity to keep the steps in order in case you want to duplicate something but he also had some plasticene 3 ( I am sure thats not spelled right) There is a photo of it with tool impressions made into it. That way you can duplicate a tool since they are so hard to draw. We had a great time. Max discussed the Knife making class coming up and it was decided we would use propane forges to eliminate the smoke till we get the new side draft forge hoods installed. The following is a link to the pictures I took while at the meeting. Picasa Web Albums - Lyle - July 08 Meeti... Lyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LDW Posted July 17, 2008 Author Share Posted July 17, 2008 Here is my second attempt at duplicating the process Ernie demonstrated at the July meeting. Another one of Otto Schmirler's leaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
