New fork
« on: October 21, 2019, 10:05 »
Hi all, I managed to snap a tine from my favorite fork at the weekend  :mad: and need to get a new one now. I originally bought it at a boot sale and it had no makers mark but I want something similar as it was lovely to use. The shaft and head were a one piece steel casting and the tines were round and sharp pointed rather than the square section type you often see. Any recommendations would be gratefully received.

Good morning Plot94,

 track down your local blacksmith (possibly through the horsey set), he may be able to forge weld it back on for you.

Cheers,  Tony.
I may be growing OLD, but I refuse to grow UP !
