Hand-Forged Chopsticks for Heidi
Finished these hand-forged chopsticks last night from 304 stainless steel. They’ll go to Heidi Jacobs of Whitehall Pottery in Pittsburgh, PA.
Successful Holiday Market at The Steel Yard (Providence, RI)
On December 19, 2020, I was a vendor/exhibitor at The Steel Yard’s “Holiday Art Market”, and it was really a great event held in very challenging times. All the pandemic precautions were in place: social distancing, mask wearing, hand sanitizer, and staggered entry of patrons to prevent crowding.
Bottle Openers before the Storm!
These were forged before tonight’s winter storm. Productive night.
I almost threw this bottle opener away…
So, the round hole in the cap-lifting tab on this bottle opener was last night’s mistake (at the time a crack/ fissure). A little work with a Dremel tonight and I’m unusually pleased with it now.
Top-Twist Chopsticks
Here’s tonight’s hand-forged steel chopsticks (along with an in-process hot shot). Experimenting with the twists at the top is fun.
