Christmas in the iron shop! **pics**

[ragincajun]

well the budget was a little tight this year...ok really tight so u dug into the scrap pile at work and went to town for a couple hours. i made 3 roses and one white tail shed for $2.60 lol. the roses were for my grandparents and my mother. my brother LOVES hunting so i found some round stock and tapered it with our 50lb power hammer and made him a 5pt white tail shed with a little kicker that he can put on a table or something. here are some pics of the final product. once again i didnt get pics of the process. sorry!

Things you make yourself come from the heart and mean more than something you would buy at a store.

Nice work Cajun. You have an obvious talent for metal art. That could become very lucrative for you in the future.

Not only are you picking up the trade....
You have a good attitude.
Something that is hard to find in the younger hires.

One day your aspirations will become higher than being an employee.
When that day comes, give your boss the opportunity to "make room" for you in a larger capacity.
