Default first metal smash!...i think

ok so this was my first time shrinking metal with a stump ( or at all for that matter) and it went pretty smooth i think. see pics below

i used a stump from the back yard with a very small roughly 1 inch bowl. (and yes it is a soft sappy pine but im workin with what i have right now)

a hamer made out of scrap 2x4s and a extra hatchet handle

the metal isnt the prettiest it was a scrap piece ( should have striped it first)

what do you guys think?
