    I've even used the dappling block to restore the shape of original collars.

    What Do You Have In The Mail Right Now?

    W. Greaves & Sons stubtail came in yesterday afternoon.

    I have peened the small washers before.


    The collars in the above pic, were made by doming flat washers with a dappling block.
