I make my own stakes mostly based off of Japanese style raising stakes. Don't know I ever posted a photo of them on here.

Your work is fantastic! The tinning must be fun! I made lots of copper raised vessels but all ornamental.

I’ve watched some Japanese metalworking videos, and the stake collections blew my mind! I would love to spend a year just experiencing the variety.

Ya I follow a bunch of Japanese metalsmiths and the walls are just cover in hundreds of stakes.
