Commission for a hitching post for a motorcycle. Solid steel, even the decorative ring, the pipe is 2 3/16 wide and 3/16 thick. Used a rail spike for the hook, the ring is 1/4 inch mild steel with a decorative pineapple twist welded close. All welded but the hook has enough opening to allow use if the ring goes missing. The top cap is 1/4 leaf spring cut to size.

Pallet refurbishing project. Started at 5pm on 9/7/24, Almost done, could just put a linseed oil finish on it and put it together and be done already, but I'm crazy. Want to do some carving on the posts and some detail works on the slats themselves. Then I'll do the linseed or tongue oil rub down. This is to go by my fire pit and is designed to hold over a 1000 lbs easily.

Working on some stuff today.
