You guys all want to come to my shop and we'll have a hammer-in and figure
out how to make those nice scroll ends you see on Georgian handrail ends?
Failing that, if anyone has ideas about what would be a good approach and
wants to make a post about it- you know the ones, where the handrail comes
to a scroll in a horizontal plane at the base of the stairs and has a sort
of halfpenny scroll, but without the necking down, it's a full width curl
kind of like an unwound snail shell...that's not a very good description...
It's full width all the way to the end, then comes to sort of a disk...I'm
stumped on how to forge it.
