Geoff the rust cleaned up pretty easy. I just thought the pattern it created looked interesting. Here's another one from a while back.

Doug Webster started following Blackened finish on wrought iron.

I was forging out a tsuba and left some water on the anvil face. A couple hours later I found this
-
Nice anvil. I do think you have a hammer addiction and should probably speak to a therapist.
-
Cool stuff. What anvil do you have there? It looks like your hardy hole is next to the horn?

Damascus woes... feedback requested
Doug Webster replied to Eric Morgan's topic in Design and Critique
I always find this tutorial by Cashen very helpful. http://www.cashenblades.com/damascus.html -
I forged the 131 gram bearing into an 85 gram blade. I am in the middle of draw filing the spine. Next up is the edge bevel. I also salvaged a Kogatana from the delaminated Damascus.

I would never have the guts to cut such a beautiful piece of wood in 3 pieces. Really quite perfect. I really like how the bevel grind line looks like water.

It was a little phantasmic watching that bearing heat up. Maybe I found my inspiration

I went back to 1.25" ball bearing of 52100 and have a good start on a hidden tang.
-
Two bubbles of delamination showed up in the blade.

Wowsa!

I was thinking of starting with a 1.25" ball bearing. Then I got the idea to go low layer Damascus twist with a few raindrops. Here's my progress from yesterday. I'm feeling a Tanto is the direction I go next if I don't find any delaminations.

Anyone have a source for 1.25" W2 ball bearing
