WELCOME TO JOURNEY TO THE ANVIL


JOURNEY TO THE ANVIL LEARNING TO FORGE

FIRST DAY BACK

5 weeks off  for the Christmas break, itching to be back at the anvil, what could go wrong?

During the Christmas break i lasted a couple of weeks before my feet started to itch. You cannot begin to imagine the turmoil that not having made something could bring.

Solution?

Make something;

Outcome;

A single bed.

So what could go wrong? Well for starters i was on a high, the bed was a complete success, the design and execution I'm more than happy with.

Float into college with a head full of ideas for some simple fixtures and fittings for the spare room, still riding high till the first couple of heats.

My ideas are OK, just not the execution. The bloody Material does not want to play ball, a head full of the recurring frustration that is evident on most visits to the workshop, a couple attempts at slightly different brackets to add to the bed, all should be well.

All i am trying to say is the session did not work out as planned- another recurring theme at the anvil!!!
