[TheForge] Re: Artist-Blacksmith

[Bill Roberts]

I cold forge a LOT of copper and aluminum, and by cold, I mean not  
annealed.........just cold.....fwiw. There are times that it's to hot  
to fire up the forge here in Central FL too. :)
for example.......http://www.customdesignmetalarts.com/sculptures.0.html
all forged cold except for the 3/4" solid round tapers on this  
one....... http://www.customdesignmetalarts.com/sculptures.4.html
food for thought :)
