[TheForge] 8" hemispheres

[Jerry Frost]

There's a good chance they were spun.

Metal spinning is one of, if not the oldest method of machine forming metal.
It's as old as the lathe though primarily used for gold, silver and copper
jewelry and small utensils till a few centuries ago.

If it ain't forged
it ain't real.
Wrought iron is.
