I found Waldo! He's in the background on a blue anvil. Oh wait that's Thomas. Great video once again Roy! Glad to see another one come out. Keep up the good work.

Nice and quick. We rope off the front yard with lights as part of our Christmas display. These could work great for that!😎

Very nice Job Roy. Very nice project. Hopefully you get great use out of them for many years to come my friend. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep forge lit. Keep Making God Bless.

Nice. The twists add refinement to your demo space. Mine are old rusty lengths of rebar but I've done a couple of things differently. Instead of a loop I put a pig tail in the end. Essentially I did two winds at the end instead of the one in yours and pulled it out to look a bit like a corkscrew. This lets me just tie off the end of my skein of rope to one post and just slide it intop each pigtail without having to pass the entire length through each hoop. When I noticed that a good height for an adult audience was high enough to let toddlers just walk under I put a loop halfway up each post and spread it at the overlap; allowing me to do the same thing.
This makes setup just a bit faster and I don't have to trim a length of line that I might want to also use for other things.

Hadn't thought about roping off a section, love it👍❤️

Nice little project! I need a good place to buy stock. To make a bunch of those for what I’m paying wouldn’t be cheap

[brysonalden]

Now all I need to do is pull the trigger on getting space reserved for demos! Great idea.

New guy question. I make key-finders out of 3/8" square mild steel. They're about 4.5" long.
How SHORT a piece of that bar stock could be twisted cold by this old, retired gray beard without snapping the metal or my back??

[ironhead]

Thanks for sharing! Great idea! How would you finish those? Some kind of wax?

[blackhammerartisan]
