Step 1: A summerhouse piece of steel (length approx. 6 3/8 inch / 16.2 cm, diameter approximately 5/8 inch / 1.58 cm) cut off. An end to straw-yellow heat, then tapered round off to a final diameter of 0.5 cm / 3/16 inch (see fig. 1).
The other end pale yellow heat step 2: and from forge in a flat tip as shown in Figure 2. Approximately 1/4 inch of this tip should protrude over the edge of the anvil. The finish can be made to a flatter just above the fresh temperature. If the tip at low temperature is forged, the metal fabric is torn.
Step 3: the projecting end "A" is with a shotgun hammer completely or partially cut off. The latter method, the protruding tip is canceled after hardening. So exposed to the metal structure can be observed if the temperature was correct during the hardening process. If the chisel tip was hammered out too thin may they not back are compressed (danger of damage to the metal structure), but the tip must be crushed later.
Step 4: who must chisel slowly cooled inner tensions, can be mined it. The cutting edge is a color of blue, blue/red left. Then the cutting edge on a grinding wheel at an angle of 60 ° is sanded.
Step 1: A summerhouse piece of steel (length approx. 40cm / 16 inch diameter 2cm / 3/4 inch) cut. An end to heat, then flat beat to a thickness of about 0.5 cm / 3/16 inch at the top (see fig. 1.1.) Both sides edit and as wide as possible hit.
Step 2: the round top with a chisel cut is straight.
Step 3: the cutting edge on the ends are processed analog step 2.
Step 5: after sharpening hardens the drill cutting as with a chisel. The occasion colour should be a dark straw.
Step 1: A summerhouse piece of steel (length approx. 20 inch / 50.8 cm, diameter approximately 3/4 inch / 1.9 cm) cut.
Step 2: end of a heat, then this with a flatter on a diameter of approx. 1 1/10 inch / compress 2.8 cm.
Step 3: with a lower hammer on 4 sides hammer small grooves. These grooves have a length of 2 1/4 inches / XXcm). You have to keep the function the upper and lower v-shaped die tools.
(fig. C2A). The drill must be turned regularly during this work so that the grooves are equally deep.
Step 5: the emerging wing of the cross are now on a "Wing die" / "wing swage" (fig. C2b) from forged with a rectangular are thinner. Will the end of the drill with a very thin "hot chisel" perpendicular crushed down.
Step 6: the drill cutting shapes out as shown in Fig. 6.
Step 7: the cutting edge on form with a "counterpart" (fig. C2c). This holder is either placed on the anvil and punched the drill or the Overarm is held directly on the drill and beaten with a sledgehammer on the drill. The blade can be sharpened with file, as long as the tool tip is hot.
Step 8: the color of the occasion should be a dark straw.
