Easter meeting of the medieval helmet research team. The conical helm got a lot more volume and the bascinet got a lot less volume.

Stretch raising on flat anvils is a lot different from the more direct techniques of modern metal forming. Building the height of a vessel by working from the inside creates a surplus of volume that has to be compressed back into itself afterward. You have to go out before you can go in.

Matching the brass to the steel on a crazy curve is always a tense moment. It takes a lot of care and attention, and there’s not much room for error

I finished up and installed these doors in a beautiful condo in Almonte. I’m very happy with how they turned out, and with how well they fit the space.
