Do It:
3. Heat the very end (approximately 1”) of the bar and upset it to about 3/4” to 7/8”.
4. Heat up the bar about 3/4” behind the upset and indent it on the edge on the near edge of the anvil holding the bar at 45 degrees to the edge of the anvil.
5. Punch the nostrils in the upper outer quadrant with a pointed punch and it will flare the nostrils (make them deep and drift them where you want them) One heat if possible.
6. Another heat and set the eyes where the previous corners of the bar were before you smashed these corners down.
7. Cut the mouth with a straight chisel.

Non-Generic Extras:
8. Split the mouth open, cut a second line just 1/16th” above mouth line on upper jaw and then cut in some teeth.
9. Curl bottom jaw and you have a bottle opener (in remembrance of the good old days).
10. Cut in some scales with the little curved chisel.

1. 5/8” square bar again shaped to a three sided taper 5/8”long.
2. Step the taper down on the near side of the anvil.
3. Use a spring fuller and then a fuller punch to countersink and square up the resulting shoulder (this separates the tongue mass to be drawn out).
4. As above use the near side of anvil to set the eyes sockets on the diagonal.
5. Cut the ears from the corners longer than necessary because they get shorter.
6. Punch the eyes, add scales with the curved chisel.

1. Make a 3” taper on the end of a 5/8” bar (1/4”square on tip)
2. Hot split and open up making two horns.
3. Pull horns back together to prevent damage for next step.
4. Fold 5/8” back on itself to make the head (over edge of anvil)
5. Upset and chamfer end of snout. Hammer and shape head.
6. Add eyes and nostrils
7. Use a bending fork to bend head down to make a neck.
(horns were bent and quenched to fit in bending fork without damage).
8. Bend horns to your liking and you have it.

1. Start with 5/8” or bigger square bar. Do a three sided taper to 3/8” square on the tip.
2. Do a step off on near side of anvil and round off the corner a bit.
3. Develop eye sockets on edge of anvil Fuller with 3/8 spring fuller just ahead of eye sockets Round and draw nose and upset it a little; leave bottom a little longer if open mouth is planned.
4. Use 3/16th fuller and set eye front to side
5. Use a flat fuller to develop ears above eyes, center punch a little and then
round to shape and drive ear back.
6. Use 3/16th fuller to develop jaw line and for it forward for cutting hair into.
7. Split mouth open with curved chisel (convex up) leaving plenty of lower jaw for teeth & lower lip. Cut mouth and nostrils in one heat if possible.
8. Use chisel to cut lip line, side set to bump up iron for a row of teeth and roll the lip down a little.
9. Open mouth , cut a lengthwise shallow groove down middle of tongue and cut tongue with small curved chisel (convex down)
8. Use eye punch to set eyes, use chisel to cut teeth and fuller to draw teeth longer and to shape.
