[TheForge] Artist-Blacksmith

[robert hensarling]

Good looking stuff Frosty!  Love the sign!!
Bill, I had no idea you could do that with aluminum.  Is that using one of 
those planishing dies that Senior Hoffi came up with?  I've got a block (7" 
x 9" x 3 feet) of 6061 that could keep me busy for a while if I knew where 
to start with the thing.  My bandsaw isn't that big.
Now you have me anxious to get to the shop tomorrow and stick some copper 
and/or alum in the dies just to see what it feels like.  Thanks, and that's 
really nice art you create!
