some scrollwork pieces





Scrollwork is bending metal with your hands and only your hands, ie no tools, into various shapes and designs. It was a way oldtime strongmen demonstrated some talents. Being that I couldn't find much bigger metal, I focused on smaller pieces most all of these pieces started out as 6 ft of cold rolled steel that was 1/8th inch by 1/2 inch or 1/8 inch by 1 inch.
