Quick update...
I picked up a handle for the top fuller but it turned out to be a touch too small so will save it for later. I took the fuller out of the wood ash and after some cleanup on the grinder, I am pretty happy with the results. It would look a lot better if I had a belt sander(not the variety used for wood sanding). It would allow me to put a nice polish and finish on the fuller. Oh well, it will still work perfectly well just that it will be a little ugly... :) I will try to upload a pic once I have the handle on.
Not quite smithing but I did teach myself to weld copper last night. I am going to replace my water heater soon and I want to do it myself. I have to say that welding copper pipe is one of the easiest metal working things I have ever done.
A chronicle of my attempts to create an early clock using only traditional techniques.
