Morning John, the half penny measured 17.14 mm diameter and was discontinued in 1984, it was designed to replace the old sixpence ( 2.5 pence) so there u go mate, another fab video John thanks 👍🏴
Thanks for the info
Black Bear Forge you are welcome John, I went out after your video but unfortunately the only flat bar I had was too thin so I will be getting some thicker stock and crack on with the half penny scroll, thanks again John
Whatnow?
The sixpence was tuppence hapence?
Steffen Dahlberg ha ha yes mate so it was 👍🏴
Got to laugh at youngsters searching Google for things. 🤔
Iv learned so much in this short video
If I become successful I will definitely pledge
Till then all I have is my thanks Sir
This came at just the right time, making or made an A frame stand for my Sisters big shield thing she has, and she wants some scrolls on the bottom of it, started today on the scroll but it just wouldn't go right, I think I had it too tight. So I walked away and am going to start a fresh tomorrow morning.
We had Pound Shillings And Pence here in Australia until 1966 when they went over to Dollars and cents.
Wonderful way to tip a scroll out. This was very enlightening. Thank you!
Very Informative , new scroll for me to add to my collection !
More Notes for me to make !
That was an interesting scroll. Thanks for showing.
John buddy you make this look very easy I thank you I will keep trying this
Thanks for the video. The way I learned this last year was nearly identical except the presenter forged the teardrop bent in one direction and then forged it back the opposite way as they rounded it. The effect was to create a clear line between the penny and the parent stock all the way to the junction. You managed to get a pretty crisp line in between with out doing that!
I made some cool snake railings out of ,1" round stock and flat
It was fun building the first side , the other side was very hard to match it's pair perfect
I ended up tracing the first one on a big fab table and then I welded points around the table to make sure the railing would fit into it when I got to the right curvature I don't claim to be a pro
Just came across an opportunity and decided to say ok
17.14MM IS ONE HALF PENNY, GLAD YOU TAKE THE TIME TO DO THESES, I ENJOY THE VIDEOS, EVEN MORE SO, KNOWIN YOU HAVE WORK TO TURN OUT PRODUCT AS WELL AS VIDEOS FOR US FANS, THANX
Very nice John thank you
Before you rounded that last corner, I saw a Swan/Goose head or an easy leaf. During the rounding process, it became the head to the Sinclair Oil Company Dinosaur... from half-penny set up to multiple stylized scroll ends.
Interesting observations. I was thinking it might become an Aspen leaf
An old half-penny (½d) was about an inch across. After decimalisation the half New Penny coin (½p) was about 11/16".
thanks
Old English ha'penny was just a shade over an inch across John. Steve Nottingham England.
Awesome job keep it up👍👍
Thanks
Kewl scroll technique
The skill really shows when you can make fifty just like it
Do you ever use soapstone to draw some reference points on the anvil surface around your bending point
I've got some old coins and there seems to be a couple of sizes of halfpennies and they seem to go by age - the older ones are bigger. My oldest one is about 30mm and my youngest is about 17mm.
Thanks
Victorian Half Pence are a fat inch in diameter, but the size of the coin varied from period to period. It depends on age. I'd assume the term ha'penny scroll is a Victorian term so an inch -ish or 25mm
Thanks
25.48 mm diameter. I am not form the UK, I am a coin collector :)
Thanks
Anymore info on your penny jig?
25.48 mm (1" basically) 1/2 penny diameter
How do you keep from getting cold shuts in the half penny scroll at the joint
Avoid a sharp transition and keep an eye out for problems. Sometimes a few passes with a file is all it takes to deal with an issue
I was given a half penny, or sometimes pronounced ha’penny, and the legend is if you keep a given half penny in your pocket, it brings luck. A friend gave me mine after I graduated from veterinary school.
Our legend is keep at least one of the smaller coins in your pocket, lest the dogs will relieve themselves on you.
Handy in your line of work.
What is the total length of your bag ample and love with I’m fixing to make my own and I have an idea I want to try
??
I'm a cold shut magnet. This would be a tough one.
They are prone to that
Some times if you are carefull you can forge weld the cold shut together it helps to take an extra heat to carefulay clean up the shoulder and and to use a clean radius on the anvil if you use a sharp edg the shoulder can forme a cold shut at least that is how I was tought pls correct me if im wrong
Thank you. Good tips.
Grandadz Forge you are quite welcome
My way of thinking...a cold shut on the "half penny" is not structural, so I doubt it would be a big issue anyway if it's not a big honking crack.
Joey van der Steeg makes one out of square stock
I can't seem to find anyone who has a video online that is forging and putting together a large wrought/ ornamental panel to put between two posts or a posts and wall as i would be greatly interested in learning the process of how to do this acrutily the panel would need to be about 7ft by 7ft its been really hard to find any sort of demonstration on this would i maybe need to get some books on the subject and could you please recommend some reference material on doing this type of work thank you for any information that you can provide
I do have a few smaller window grill projects here on TH-cam that will have some advice for larger work. Mark Asperys third book on Joinery www.markaspery.com/School_of_Blacksmithing/Purchase_books.html would be a good resource as would the books from COSIRA, which may now be Country Side. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/wrought-ironwork-council-for-small-industries-in-rural-areas/1130632137
I could not focus on your forging as I was too busy watching your anvil spider.
I missed the spider, probably a jarring experience for him
عملتها عندي في الورشه قبلك
Good morning sir, and thanks! I think this link is a pretty good tutorial: th-cam.com/video/Wbarm320asU/w-d-xo.html. Hopefully the link works.
I will give it a watch
