A working Saturday to make up for the slow down caused by the cold drizzly days earlier in the week. Did finish the list in time to clean up my own and my in-law' s yards.
Made for a long day.0 -

Rainout at work.
Spent day running around looking for steel. Had to buy 5' of 3/4" x 2" flat bar for my anvil make ($25) as well as $5 of various size scrap which included about 2' of 1/2" round stainless steel.
Then picked up a broken roll of commercial garage door spring. 3/8" round spring steel, guessing 195' in the roll... for free! Thank you Overhead Door!
After lunch, knocked together a wooden cast flask for the aluminum foundry.
If we are rained out again today, likely as it is raining as i type this, i'll make some hook templates. Perhaps, if everything goes well, we'll pour some aluminum this weekend.0 -

Another rainout at work.
Hook patterns made, just need another sanding and a last coat of glossy paint.
Plenty of time to work on my I-beam anvil make. I cut off 4 vertical web stiffeners from the 3/4x2 flat bar. Also cut the four corners off the base to use as 4 buttresses between the bottom plate and the web.
Now I have three projects waiting on the welder. Anvil make, vise stand, and forge.0 -

And this day officially ends our Fall busy season. Plenty of work still to do after this glorious four day weekend off, but the time cruch is over.
A Lawn Mainteance's week before Thansgiving is like a CPA's week before Tax Day. Everyone wants theirs done first (!!) and calls to be sure you haven't forgotten it.0 -

Spent most of day playing in the smithy, welding on my anvil-like-object (a heavily modified 12x12 I-beam).0 -

Having a blast working in the smithy these last two days. Progress photos to follow:
Anvil-Like-Object
(Obviously I'm not a professional welder nor even a good amateur.) Still have end caps to add to the top skirt, and playing around with the idea of adding an upsetting block to bottom flange and then filling the open spaces between the vertical web stabilizers and bottom triangular buttresses with recovered aluminum (from soda cans) via the foundary.
Vise Stand
Square table top will not be welded on, just bolted down via the vise mounting bolts. Still need to drill the mounting holes for the vise and then add a tool rail on the back of the table for hammers and tongs.
Casting Flask and Patterns
The bottom box is the drag and the top is the cope which is secured to the drag with a screw on either side. The red objects are the patterns, doubled hooks for the smaller latches on my mower's bagging system. The larger hook is for another bagging system (I'll be working on that doubled pattern today). Last image is the latch that goes with the larger hook. Been patching it together without much luck. Working on an idea to cast it in aluminum with replaceable rubber straps. Still thinking on that one.0 -
