Well Padrig, next time you have something to give away for free because you're feeling charitable, make up some different rules. Aaron said the 68th replier, without making multiple posts consecutively, would get his. So, that's how it works. Why should you care how he gives it away? -Gregory- I ju...

Sorry if this is not in line with the discussion but I would go this way with the anvil:

If it has been posted before, I apologize.

Gwynnin, man did you miss out on the past ugly helms constests. That IS a but ugly helm.

Pad

Padrig

Not sayin' it's not generous and stuff but I would have made them work a little harder for it than just random posts.

Pad

Padrig

I like your first one better Tasha but that may have something to do with the model.

Kiding aside, very nice work. I hope to someday be able to comission something similar from you. Maybe a trade if I get that dam shop to my liking and my skills up a notch.

Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. Any pics of you wearing it all, if you are the right size of course?

Tarquin, replied by email.

I agree with Thomas, I have no idea why somebody would want this domain name?

Pad

Padrig

Pics would be nice yes.

Thanks

Sir Mord, he said 15K not 150K.

Nice try, we all know it's plastic.

Pad

Padrig

Thanks T-Bob.

Pad

Padrig

You made it, yeah right. We want proof on the form of a video showing you making it.

Pad

Padrig

I wasn't fooled. I knew right away that it was plastic.

Ok, maybe not but I knew something was fishy in that Guillaume has done good looking armour up to now but it seemed a little big a jump in skill to make a piece that impressed Chef AND Ugo.

Pad

Padrig

I think Guillaume posted a plastic helmet and did not tell us about it to be able to get people to say it was nice thinking it was metal. Bad guillaume.

Mr. Durasteel. Ironmonger has been down for a little while if I am not mistaken. Do a search here, I think there was a post about that not too long ago. And the incredulity is normal methinks. From your brief description, you have more tools than most of us here. Newbies ask where to get tools and s...

Padrig

I agree with Thomas. It is strange that you are so advanced and don't know where to find tools. You may be new to the Web and if that is the case, I apologize. A little, history about yourself, your achievements, pics of your work, website if you have one, etc... would go a long way in helping us he...

I thought I had a better site but you may find something on this one:

I may use it for another application but very good idea Hal, thanks.

Padrig

Very nice. I will add a link to your armoury on my site.

Can't help you with the nibbler but I have a Makita shear myself, the smaller model, and I would not part with it. Very useful and I end up using it more than the B2.

You won't regret it.

Very good idea LV. Can't wait to see more. I will take a look at what I have myself.

Pad

Padrig

I like the great helm. Very nice shape.

Thanks for sharing

Padrig

Ha! The magic invisible bracelet. I think you went too far with the etching, there's nothing left.

Pad

If you need help, shoot me the pic I'll post it for you.

Padrig

Not much help here. They all kind of make my eyes hurt.

Pad

Padrig

Thanks for sharing. I don't use TIG but knowledge is always good.

Pad

Padrig

Cat, the t-stake is very simple to make, just buy a couple of pieces of steel and go to the local welder. here's mine. http://www.armurerieduroi.com/images/Photos/bench_horse.jpg Here you can see the bench I made to hold it up. m If you hace any questions, email me. I'll do my best to help. Pad

Padrig

Well, for me, the curves at the top and bottom of the center ridge to make the transition with the attaching points gives it a more graceful look, les "bargrilly". Makes sense?

Pad

Padrig

A agree, beautiful! I also think it is one of the best looking bar grill I've seen.

Thanks for sharing.

Padrig

I don't know about TIG but I just bought a Miller MIG a few weeks ago and I am more than happy with it.

Welding is FUN!:D
