Brent Bailey Forge Feature Article After 12 years of forging with the same hammer (which I bought when I first started), it is worn out. I have replaced the handle twice, mig welded the face at least 10 times to repair cracks, applied electrical tape, and ground a 1/2" off the face due to scars. It started out at about 5 lbs, and now weighs in at about 4. It has helped to produce every piece that went from forge to anvil to finished product. The following photos are two new cross peins I made for me. One is S-7 with an Osage handle, 4 3/4 lbs, the other is 4340 fitted with a Lignum Vitae handle, at 5 lbs. |
