making a Burning Man branding iron

I was recently asked to make a Burning Man branding iron approximately 1" in height. I had not made a branding
iron before, but it seemed simple enough. The trickiest part was the small scale, but I love welding so I jumped
right into this project.
Step 1: I collected all the necessary tools and materials.



*this project was made at TechShop San Jose
    -"what will you make?"

Step 1: Materials and Tools

Acquire all the necessary tools and materials:

1" print out of the Burning Man logo for reference
1/8" weldable steel square rod
angle grinder w/ cut off wheel
hammer
vice
helping hand
grinding wheel
TIG welder
