Nice jig. There are many out there and are essentially the same. I will use yours as my starting point. You show the tong jig and the v jaw jig. But you mentioned an offset to the reins. You do not show this step. Do you create this offset on the anvil or did you make a simple offset jig?

[@killerkane1957]

Sorry but you don't seem to be reading my question correctly or my question is misleading. I said an offset in the reins not the boss or jaw.
At about 8:11 or so in video two you clearly state that there is an offset to keep the reins aligned. Also this is clear in the video. Your tong jig makes two offsets. One for the boss and one for the jaws. Now your v jaw jig certainly gives no offset.
So I have to ask once again, how do you place the offset in the REINS behind the boss? Anvil by hand? Rein offset jig?

John did you forge in the first jig first then go to the second jig. how did you keep your stock round when the first flattens the end. or did you do the face profile with the second jig and then then go to the first jig and then back to the second jig. thanks
