A donation to the 15th Annual BCTV Octoberfest Auction

We donated this forge-welded firepoker to the Octoberfest Auction in Reading, Pa

Every year BCTV holds an auction over several days to raise funding to support their community programming.

This years event is 10/13 to 10/18.

Here is a link to their site: http://www.bctv.org/Octoberfest.aspx

The firepoker is 27" long and is made from 3/8" square stock.

There is a forge-welded pike on the working end.

It has three reverse twists in the body and a hook on the opposite end for hanging when not in use.

Firepokers can be used in your woodstove, fireplace or at the campfire and are made in varying lengths.

A Forge-Welded Trivet

We enjoy creating decorative and functional hand-wrought ironwork.

Here is one of our forge-welded trivets. It measures approx 8" across by 4" high and is made from mild steel

Trivets are used for different purposes.

Use it to support a hot dish or pot on your dining room table so the heat doesn't damage the tabletop.

Another use ( my favorite), is to support a dutch oven for cooking in your fireplace at home or while camping. The legs allow hot coals to be placed underneath which control the amount of heat needed to cook or bake your food.

We're working on a shorter trivet than the one pictured for a customer who will use it inside their dutch oven to support a pie pan for even baking all around.
