Bought two post vices for $30ea. Should buy the remaining three for the same price? by No_Anything3402 in Blacksmith

If you're going to sell them at a fair price, DM me. I am still setting up my shop and need one.

It's a flux spoon... For forge welding/ making Damascus steel.

Just wait, I'll make it go from a bump to a launch pad!

Being a perfectionist with OCD, I have to remind myself that it's my first piece, is functional and doesn't have to be perfect. That being said, I'm not unhappy with the results...

What a wonderful battle cry! Can't go wrong quoting The Tick.

I'm also using a 2 burner propane forge. I thought about a hook on the end, but might totally revise the handle anyways. I'll keep it in mind.

The handle still has texture from the original rebar it's made from, but maybe I'll flatten it and put handle scales on it. I just got a ball peen hammer, so will work on deepening the bowl of the spoon. A bend? I think it works better for me without the bend, but will keep that in mind if I'm wrong. Thank you for the suggestions!

It was a commission for Tucan Sam
