Steps 13-21 were not shown or discussed on the segment — here are the directions for the legs for the stand:13. To make the legs of the stand; begin by making the leaf area on the leg. Heat the end of the stock and taper it into a point. Heat from the tapered end down a couple inches and then "neck it down" by hitting the metal about one inch from the point, making a narrow "neck" in the metal. This portion of the steel will be the leaf. Add details later in the process. Keep the metal at least a bright orange heat from the tip of the steel to an inch below the neck area. Otherwise, the coolness of the steel and the vibrations of the hammer will cause this neck area to crack and the leaf area to fall off.
14. Heat the rest of the metal by beginning at the neck and heating and hammering to smooth and lengthen the stock. Repeat this process from the neck to about the middle of the piece.
15. Work on the other end of the steel to split it. Mark the end with a chisel in the middle of the stock when the metal is hot, put it onto the anvil and place a cutting tool on the mark and strike it with a hammer. By moving the cutting tool along the line that is marked and hitting it, you cut the metal to form two prongs at the end of the stock.
16. Bend one prong out of the way and taper the other prong to a point. Bend the tapered prong out of the way and do the same thing with the other prong. While bending the prongs back and forth, keep the bottom one inch of the prong and at least three inches of the stock heated orange or you will break off the prong.
17. When the prongs are tapered curl them into a scroll shape. Bend one prong out of the way. Heat the other prong and place it over the anvil. Hammer it over the edge of the anvil, gradually pushing the prong forward, hammering over the edge, as the prong curls under the blows of the hammer. Each scroll will have its own look. The center of the scroll should be the diameter of the small rivets that will be used to attach the legs to the ring. Check the center of the scroll to be sure that the rivet is a snug fit.
18. To put the details on the leaf, go back to the other end of the steel and flatten the piece between the point and the neck. Hammer and shape this piece carefully making a leaf. While heating and shaping the leaf, be sure that the area from the point of the leaf to an inch below the neck is bright orange while you are working on it. When the steel is too cool, the vibrations from the blows of the hammer will cause the leaf to fall off.
19. Once the stock has a leaf on one end and two scrolls on the other end, heat the piece from the tip of the leaf to about the middle of the stock. Keep the steel orange and proceed carefully. Bend the steel in half. Wrap the leaf end around the stock like a vine.
20. There is now a loop at one end of the leg. Heat the loop orange and bend the loop using a bending fork to form a foot for the leg of the stand.
21. Make two more legs following the same steps for a total of three legs.
