Momatt Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Iron body punched this time not wrapped. I folded in half and fire welded a piece of 1/4 inch 1080. I liked the thickness of a full half inch high carbon bit when welding it in. Nice having enough meat to blend in the weld scarfs. Surprising how hard it is to move a half inch of high carbon with a 2 pound hammer. First weld Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momatt Posted June 21, 2020 Author Share Posted June 21, 2020 Thanks. This is my biggest to date the head came out to just under 3.5 pounds. A lot of hammering and heats to go from my starting stock of anchor chain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
