create forged iron bed ends for a custom designed log bed.
1997 09 mild steel
design, forming, welding, finishing
this was definitely my most heavy-duty and high-profile custom order from the pine shop.
one inch solid bars of iron were forged, bent, and welded to resemble tree limbs bound in a grid.
the finished ironwork was mounted in the head and foot of a massive log bed designed and crafted by the guys at the pine shop.
the complete bed was set up in the home of figure skating champion kurt browning.
