| This month's "How Was It Made" explores elements incorporated
into gate balusters. The gate seems to be made with all traditional techniques,
but closer inspection reveals fabrication techniques. The first clue is
the rounded edges of the gate frame stock, and the absence of traditional
joinery, indicating that it is fabricated square tubing. This led to the
suspicion that the rest of the gate had to be a combination of forged and
fabricated techniques. Using this evidence, we explore how it may have
been made. |
