Fredly Forge

This is where I will post up some stuff on my life. Currently most of it will pertain to my blacksmithing and forge work since that is my main interest right now. Who knows where it will go in the future, or what parts of the past I will post up. Check back often, as it is defiantly a work in progress, and it will be updated often. Click on the links below to see what I have so far. Enjoy.

This is a fire place set I made for my sister for Christmas. I still have to do the broom, but otherwise it is done. This is the first fireplace set I have ever done, and I am very proud of it. Click the picture to go to the projects page where I have more detailed pics.
Here I am at the Long Beach Ren Faire with my coal forge. It was the first time I took a forge to a faire. It was lots of fun, but I did smoke out the folks next to me some.
This is a bud vase I made as a Christmas present for my wife. At first I just bought her the crystal rose bud, then I came up with the idea for the vase. Click the image to go to the page with more detailed pics.
This is a basket twist candle holder I made for my niece. The wire rap ended up being the hardest part of it. Click the image to see more of it.
