Tinsmith Stakes and Coppersmith Stakes

A tour of actual traditional tinsmith and / or coppersmith stakes in my shop and Bob's shop. We don't have them all, and even with the ones in the books, there are always a few others floating around.
These stakes are soft metal, so they can't withstand the work of a blacksmith without taking a serious beating (meaning they won't be usable for a soft metal smith / sheet metal). They do last a long time, so some of mine and some of Bob's are pretty old - around 200 years for some, if not longer.
The ones with paint are newer Pexto ones, and by painting them, if they are clean and ready for the paint, can help stave off rust in the shop, obviously. Also, there are ways to sort of "season" your stakes with a combination of wax and oil.
Anyway, enjoy the tour! Let me know any thoughts/questions or tell us about stakes you have that I didn't show! Can't wait to see!
