Did you? Something I have wanted to try for several years has been a harpoon so now I can take this off my bucket list. I finally figured out how to start the head last night so I made a preform in the shape of a triangle. Welded a hay rake tine for a handle that I had straightened out a few minutes earlier and started forging. To my surprise it actually went pretty good and I only had to re weld the handle just one time. Next came the tricky part since I knew my last bandsaw blade had seen better days but I did manage to get it cut out. I'll go back in the forge one more time and draw out the area a little bit more where the shaft hooks up. I'm going to make the socket out of a piece of a very old 2 man cross cut saw blade. Hopefully by the end of the day I will have it together or close to it if it doesn't end up in the field behind the shop. Capt. Rayhab........
