Wow.
How do you make something so ignorant as a tool for chomping though hot steel look so pretty. Would love to see a video of that being made, I just cant get my head around the process to go from 3/4x3 to that. very nice piece. Was it all hand hammered or do you use a power hammer or hydraulic press too? |
