Michael Leggett: Blacksmith Artist & Powder Coater

If you can dream it, I can make it.  All of my work is custom and specifically designed to meet the customer's needs. My work includes wrought iron gates, custom railings, timber frame decor, fireplace tools and screens, chandeliers, restorations, powder coating, and much more. 


People ask me how I got started in this business.  My great-grandfather was a blacksmith and my mother was very artistic.  I believe in gifts of talents being handed down through blood lines.  I went to blacksmith school many years ago, but most of what I do comes natural to me. 

 

 

*Here's a video of me making a hand forged pine cone!*


 

 

This particular job was the customer's design.  It has a bronze patina finish with black highlights.  I have a set of inverted dies for my power hammer so I can in-house forge this custom cap rail. (You can't buy it, hence the 'custom'!) It is forged out of 3 inch by 1/4 inch flatstock. The hand rail up the far wall is made out of the same material.  I sponged the patina on heavy to give it a textured look, and after I rubbed it back out, it gave it an old-world look with the black highlights applied.
