I like that heart. It has a bit of a lot of different techniques in it and
no one could tell what it is until it's nearly finished.

I will look through the iForge site too.

thanks for the tips,

Rich.

Hi Richard.

 I always thought a nice heart shaped coat hook would be nice, something
like http://www.anvilfire.com/iForge/tutor/heart/index.htm
 but it does require a forge weld.

The last demo I saw, in the UK :-), the chap was making very simple bottle
top openers by taking a piece of square bar, giving it a twist in the middle
to make it pretty, and then hot chiseling a split in the end to make the
bottle opening bit.  Not a bad little demo, as it got twisting and chiseling
in and made a small item that people could use.

 Have a good time with the demo - too many things booked for that weekend
already I'm afraid.


	Graham
