If any guys upload any other good “Internet Annoyance Day” posters or graphics on Flickr, leave the link in the comments and I’ll try to post them here.

Steel Fireplace Logs Hand Forged From Iron

Tuesday, March 31st, 2009

Jon Sarriugarte has created a really cool Iron Fire Log for home fireplaces.

My newest creation are steel logs hand forged from iron that use natural gas for fuel. The colors of flame thoughout the fire are wonderful. This is my modern take on the ceramic log. I can build this as a match light system, or add a fully automated remote system with safeties. I use ANSI certified fire pans and safety valves. These logs could also be used in one of my outdoor fire pits as well.
