This short video is accompanied by a blog entry at gabrileblacksmith.blogspot.com about the gate creation.
Tim demonstrates the use of the fly press in making design detail—distressing the edges of the iron—while the metal is cold. A tedious, but wonderful addition to the otherwise flat edges of the gate posts.
The gate is slated for installation in September 2011 at Lincoln Grade School in Hillsboro, Oregon. A generous donation from Intel provided funding for a weather station and children's garden.
