Update from yesterday...
Yesterday when I was at the museum, I happened to take a peek at a 14th century door held together by iron straps and nails. I was pleased to notice that the nails looked almost identical in shape and size to the ones I've made the past few times on the forge.
Also, realized this morning that time change is a good thing. It will allow me to work later into the evening. Making it easier for me to get forge time during the week. Still, I'm thinking of burning one or two vacation days when I get back from Philly. Being on the road for 2 weeks in a row is a bit tiring and it would let me finish up the blacksmithing part of the chest. The rest of what I have to do on the chest SHOULD be faily easy.
A chronicle of my attempts to create an early clock using only traditional techniques.
