Good for decoration, worship, driving off or through zombies...

A nicely crafted piece.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

Thanks everyone, i never had the forge going all year, to many health and family issues :roll:
So not making any right now but may later, maybe if i get Joe up here to swing the hammer. :lol:

The spirals are made by hammering the pieces square then twisting in a vise.
Made in three pieces and welded in the middle.
