Getting some nails together for the straps I posted earlier. I've *hated* making nails. I always seem to get misshapen things with off-center heads and just not enough space for decorative work. Today I broke the jynx: I just used *way* more material in the heads, and wouldn't you know it they came out much better. Started from 3/4" (18mm) square, and cut off a good 12mm (1/2") of bar to make up the heads. Suddenly they held heat and had enough mass to decorate. #blacksmithing
