Scroll Fork

[Dave Haak]

Another tool for light bending of flat stock up to 1-1/2" wide. Saw one on TV blacksmith show a couple of months ago.

This probably wouldn't even qualify as the "Little, Little Brother" to Rocky D's post on 1-07-03 of the "OL Man's, OL Man".

Yup, that's an Ol' man! or maybe a young one...

Dave,
I have been wanting to build a scrolling fork. How well does yours work? Have any action pictures or completed scrolls?

[Guest]

I just built another ol' man...or maybe a little ol' man. The size bar that I needed to bend is what spaces it. The one of the left. The one on the right is the first one I made.

I too would like to see what one of these ole men can do. I just can't quite picture in my mind what I would need one for, but then again maybe I do.

Rocky D,

"Awesomely severe" (compliment). I love the extra reinforcement on your latest.

ChadRat,

I have not used it yet. Part of their charm, is to "just have them around".

Arbo,

I'm sure you need one. On Rocky D's, the appeal is to be able to bend "straight-on" or "offset".....or at least that's the way I see it.

Dave , you crack me up! (I have not used it yet. Part of their charm, is to "just have them around".)

Arbo, I'll get a picture of it in use. Some are made with the jaws straight out in line with the handle. I tried a pipe wrench, but it left marks from the jaws.

Rocky, do ya think that will hold up?
