Crescent Moon Hair Spike
A little moon themed hair spike. Could've spent more time polishing but I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Vendor Insurance Recommendations?
Does anyone have any recommendations for vendor insurance? I'll be selling a few things and doing some live demos if possible at a one off event in October. Trying to figure out what the best route would be for insurance. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm a hobby blacksmith and don't operate as a business if that's important.

Finished making a stand for my restored leg vise
Picked up from Facebook marketplace for $100. Didn't have a spring or mounting plate so I forged and fabricated everything it was missing. Vise is around 90lbs not including the stand. Added little caster wheels so I can move it around easily. Genuinely in love with this beautiful tool.

Finally got myself a leg vice
90 lbs and sexy af. Needed some TLC and still have to make a spring and mounting plate for it but for $100 I'd say I'm pretty damn happy. Pretty sure it's a forged vice but if anyone else has any information they can gather off the pics lmk. Couldn't find any sort of markings or brandings.

Practicing some Hammer control
Made this little object to practice hammer control and making diamond tapers. Not sure what to do with it but I think it's pretty neat.
