I blew a hole in the classroom door with a cannon I made in metalwork.
please delight me with your most on-brand story from your childhood
mine is that I quit Cubs after two weeks because it clashed with Coronation Street

Decorative metalwork on the Albert Bridge in Glasgow. Built in 1868 to a design by Bell and Miller, it's the only substantial wrought-iron (rather than cast-iron) arched bridge in Scotland.

1/ I'm back, still angry but just simmering now. Mail & groceries grabbed. Before grocery I stopped at nearby Goodwill for (controlled) thrift therapy.
1994 cross-stitch chart book, alphabets and borders. 2003 book on enamels and metalwork of the Indian subcontinent. Gorgeous reference books.

Getting very excited at photos just released by Manx National Heritage: a possible double burial with a converted Insular mount as the 'third brooch', inset weights, a Type M sword... the find has to be one of the earliest Scandinavian-style burials on Man, with the weights sitting beautifully...

A molten metal advent.
A craftsman of durable, high-quality metalwork.
Any tool or part, he can make it. But careful you don't melt in the heat in his workshop.

Weird Bluesky question: anyone here do custom metalwork?
I’m hoping to get some black post skirts made for a pergola that has 4x6” posts. Lots of brackets to make this size post, but no skirts that I can find. I’d be willing to commission for the right design!

Having to stop playing football competitively in senior school because girls' teams did not exist & mixed teams were a ridiculous idea.
Being told to 'go & sew' by the metalwork teacher when I put that down as an option.
There's a pattern here from the 80s.

Built by hands that never saw it finished.
Medieval stone, modernist art.
Light that belongs to neither century.
Have a blessed Sunday you lovely humans 😊

Barometar, Sarajevo 🇧🇦 1st visit. Narrow bar with exposed brick vaults and steampunk style metalwork. Tasteful with the exception of a big tv playing a very bad AI animation on a loop. Quiet, which isn't surprising this time on a Sunday. Erdinger Dunkel the best of a poor beer selection 🍻👍

The subject of this isn't the leaves, it's water. A trip out to Virginia in the drizzle today and I came across this scene -- like little jewels set on metalwork.

I know the feeling. Sometimes only a brazing torch will do. Thank you Mr Cridland for teaching me how to use one of those in metalwork class.
