[TheForge] hardies and other accoryies for the anvil

[Michael Horgan]

Cutoff and side set hardies, fullering tools, one of which is just a 
piece of 3/8 rod welded to a piece of stok that fits my hardy 
hole...  5/8 inch on that anvil.  I also upset some bar to make 
leaves, chiseling the veins into the top of the tool, and hammering 
the leaf down over it.  I've a swing leaf guillotine fuller for 
swedging down pipe that mounts on the hardy hole, as well as a 
smithing magician with assorted tooling. Last weekend, while demoing 
at the Renaissance Pleasure Faire, we made a bending plate for the 
hardy, with a drop in peg to turn the eye loop back on the top of a 
portable fence line.
