Thanks Bigbob,

Yes, this is all of my work. It was my first "paid" project involving forge work. It took a bit longer than I anticipated, but I finally got through it. I can't wait to see them up on the house.

Hi Eligious! it`s sounds a bit like my nickname:Baculus. Anyway, I like the way you managed to integrate tec and art into your shutter. Pure forging the old ways is not always paid as it should. I`d like to see the piece installed. Keep it up Eli... Nelson

Thanks Nelson, I probably could have increased my profit margin a little more by having the pieces cut on a CNC machine, but I thought plasma cutting them by hand would create more of a hand made look. I'm still learning to balance the tech with the art. Too much tech and it looks like your putting together a model, too little and there's no way you'll get paid enough(at least around here).

I'll post finished picts as soon as it's installed.
