Great wake-up thanks for the vid and music, could you list music.

 

[ScottRoush]

Thanks for looking folks...

The music... "Celia and Wendel" by Daisy May Erlewine, "Cold Hard Fact" by the Del Mcoury Band, and lastly: 4 Stücke Für Xylophon: Musik Für Kinder III, No. 15: Gassenhauer Nach Hans Neusiedler Für Sopran-, Altxilophon, Castagnetten, Trommel, Schellentrommel Und Pauken

I was able to recall that last one from memory. That is a lie.

 

[ScottRoush]

by the way... I hope I'm making good use of "Godzilla" Ray. That thing has been an incredible addition to my shop.

 

[abcdef]

Fascinating. How long does it take to make the head?

Nice tunes.

 

[Raymond Richard]

Scott, Godzilla looked like he was having fun. Nice demo.

 

[D lisch]

Scott that was cool I would hang out at your shop just to listen to the tunes nice Hawk

 

[ScottRoush]

David you are welcome anytime.

ABCDEF: I can usually slot, drift, forge and heat treat in a couple of hours... but I hardly ever do it all in one sitting...

 

[Stuart Willis]

Nice!! Thanks for sharing.

 

[JParanee]

very cool and a great hawk going to a great cause

 

[John Frankl]

Nice! Now please tell us about that huge rectangular anvil. Scrap? Heat treated? What?

 

[ScottRoush]

I love that anvil John. Also pictured is a big Peter Wright that sits there holding hardy tools while I work on that chunk. It is scrap mild steel and $45 at my scrap iron yard!! Not heat treated... I really don't see the need. It can get dinged if I'm not careful but it dresses up nicely with a flap wheel. Easy on the ears too....

Thanks again for the comments!

I need to make a better Godzilla than the first one I made... didn't go big enough, so it's flimsy. Ray's has ALWAYS looked like it performs flawlessly...

Sweet video, Scott - you're giving me the kick to get my forge back together after the snow destroyed my forging area!
