Started forging Christmas gifts today, this is another cross for a good friend of mine. I just got done cleaning all the mill scale off. Tomorrow I have to forge the centers, give it a homemade rivet, and then it's ready for an oil finish. I always wait till the last second for everything, UGH! I have a few other gifts I have to get done as well, and have'nt even thought about shopping yet!      Attached ImagesI hate being bi-polar it's awsomeMy Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys
