Hi Warren,

Those veggie elements or whatever they are look very good. I find your fire screen simply beatiful. The design goes very well with the brick fire place. A deluxe for a change huh Warren. nelson.

Really nice use of texture and form, Warren! Great patina, too.

Hi Warren,
I really like the screen, I have one almost identical in my Home.
Man, I made the mistake of showing this to my wife. She loved it!
She looked at me and said why can't you make something cool like that?"
I still haven't answered her......

I to like the originality and the use of texture.
Again your work is truly inspiring!
Well Done.

Hi Warren, nice work with the fireplace screen. I like the texture and color a lot. Did you sandwich the screen material to attach it?

I have only joined recently and I have found this particular thread interesting, not only for the superb workmanship but I would also like to pick your brain if thats ok with you of course.
I am smithing (cold-forging) weapons and armour for a re-enactment group and have been for some time using cold-rolled steel for armour and spring steel for weapons.
I have a sword in production at the moment that I like to think of as my first master project and I want to use brass for the pommel and crossbar (hilt).
I have had conflicting advise from several people about metals reacting. I wish to use yellow brass (which will be pound hardened), crossbar over a spring steel blade.
Can you tell me if these metal will react and if so do you know of an alternative
Regards
Kain
