Interesting Things
are always seen when one travels to different shops. This large geodesic structure is a soccer ball sculpture made at Oak Hill Ironworks.
The size is decieving unless you look closely at the large flat bed truck under it! |

Ingenious Belt Grinder seen at the meet.
As always, I try to bring home the most interesting tools, at least in photos! This slick design using a truck axel and U-joint at the pivot arm is the invention of Ray Clontz, from Charlotte, NC and was built by Paul Garrett (now resident smith at John C. Campbell Folk School). Ray was also the inventor of the "spare tire clutch" NC-JYH See Page 8 for details |

Dean Curfman striking with Zeevik
Spikes were forged under the Big BLU and the heads upset and finished in the swage block |

Universal Height Stock Rest
Another interesting tool design. I saw a micro version of this on a nail making micro forge at the Quad State meet last summer. Continued on Page 6 |
