Starting back up with the sundials. Been a long time since I felt good enough to get back into the math, forging, etc. Here are two new dials that a currently in progress   Wanted to try my hand at an alternative style of broom for a possible hearth broom. This is a hawks tail and is a bit like a double sided turkey tail. Not the best broom, but okay  Having these brooms laying around on the floor is a bit of a pain so thought I'd make a gallery of sorts using left over ironwork from various projects. Onion grill cleaners, aka cebollas. Normal grill cleaners run the risk of leaving brass bristles on the grill and then work their way to into your digestive system, possibly perforating vital organs. To use these, an onion is cut in half and stuck on the spikes inside the bowl. The grill is rubbed with the onion, leaving a fresh flavor on your grill and a wonderful smell around the cooking area. Finishing up the hearth brooms using the turkey tail style. Countless lessons learned. Started forging some handles for some simple brooms. Same basic design of handle, but will be trying some different broom shapes.  This is a dial that I forge every few years and donate to some worthwhile cause. In this case it will be for the Creede Repertory Theater Gala auction.
