Finally it was time to<br />
mark the boards in<br />
their signature<br />
backbone style. With<br />
the metal brand. The<br />
boys came up with the<br />
idea a long time ago<br />
but said that they had<br />
gone through a number<br />
of different branders,<br />
handles snapping and<br />
the heat melting the<br />
metal brand spoiling<br />
the crisp finish. Luckily<br />
the boys can always<br />
run a sander over the<br />
section if the brand<br />
doesn’t go right. The<br />
smell of the hot metal<br />
punctuates the cozy<br />
interior of the<br />
workshop. The blue<br />
flame adding a<br />
different feel to the<br />
workshop as we both<br />
watch the metal getting<br />
hotter. As the metal<br />
starts to glow orange<br />
the brand is ready to be<br />
pressed.
