      The inspector crew wanted to help but there wasn't quite enough room for all of us! Thanks again!

    Really nice mechanism! I can see that being tough to get the measurements right to make it snug when closed, without doing prototypes, which is not ‘quick ranch work’!

      @FarmsteadForge  Před 3 měsíci

      Ya for sure! Probably if I had another try at it I could get it right but it works.

    Nice build Jayce! That wasn't as easy as you made it seem, lots of small components to get lost in that big 3 burner NC! Never the less I like it! Have a good week!

      Thanks! Ya that one little piece was tricky, almost a bit of a pain in the butt! Have a good week!

      I commend you, I've never been successful forge welding that small of material. So A+ Jayce!

    Being that my house was built around 1830 in rural ky which was still kind of frontier at the time they used wood wedges drove into the sash to hold the double hung windows in position or closed. The window frame has a snitch and the sash has open and closed slots. I guess they didn’t have good blacksmith. 😎

      That's neat to hear how they did it on your house, thanks!

      The post vise? It's a portable one so I can move it to where I have the best lights for filming.

    Now all you need to do is forge an air conditioner for that thing.
