Forged Pocket Cross - 2
« on: May 09, 2024, 09:38:36 PM »
I will fire up the forge to craft the winner a Fredricks pocket cross.
This will be a great addition to your pocket, pack or a purse. I will post some pics when the auction begins!
Thank you,
Thad

Great work!
Tonight I had the opportunity to cut some steel and get things started..
Once cut and heated, I start the process of opening it up.


Then heat again and open the other side.


Hoping to get back to this tomorrow.
Oh, and I am not only making one,  will make 2 so you have one to share. :goldtooth:
Thanks again!

Proverbs 27:17 reads:
"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."
I think about his with every cross I forge!

Once I open the cross, I hot cut the top to match the sides.


Then I will give it a wood texture with my cross peen hammer on the anvil and finish texturing on a piece of wood.

When I finish the forging, they get cleaned up with a file to remove the sharps and I give them a quick buff.
I will heat them when I'm done and give them a coat of carnauba wax.
Enjoy!

Too many bows to list, and so many more I want to try!  Keep the wind in your face, and your broadheads sharp.

Payment Received from Shinken.

David,
Thanks for helping the kids!

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
