(Not created yet, almost!)
Draven started smoothing out the surface so that it would be spread evenly. He would switch on the machin so that the mold table would start its gentle vibration. With another tool he would rake off any impurities from the surface and then continue his smoothing out of the molten fluid. He would have to do this until it was just cool enough. Once that was achieved he would return the melting pot to the forge with another metal brick inside of it. This was so that he could set that up to be melted while he continues to work with this plate on the molding table yet. He would continue with the smoothing tool to further smooth out the surface of the piece. He would continue this process until it lost much of its redness and heat. Though he wanted it to keep some of it.

Using a rather large moving tool Draven took the plate off of the mold table and took it to the anvil. With the hammer he would beat out any lumps or imperfections in the metal plate. He had to be careful about this part. this would be the outside portion of the shield so this part had to be made with percision. So he would take a string and put it in wax. He laid it across an object that had the correct shape that he was looking for. Then he would place it next to the surface of the shield. He would use this as a guide to keep this perfect surface. Thus he would continue to beat on the metal. Afterward he took it to the cooling barrel and slowly submerged it. He would take it out to the anvil, bring it back to its shape and repeat this process.

The surface would be a perfect shape. The smoothness would need some touching up though. Draven too the piece to the grind stone and started to grind away small burrs and imperfections. He would place a leather strip over the grindstone and smooth out the surface down to a mirror shine. Then he would take a ladle type tool and put some liquid metal on the bottom side of it. He placed the core piece onto the liquid metal to fuse the two pieces together. He clamped this down and started on the last piece.

[Draven]

Draven took the melting pot with melted metal inside of it. He took it to the staging area and started to fix up the mold. He used the clay and water mixture to get the mold back up to standards. The melting pot was hot enough to harden the clay before he would be using it. This was the inside piece so he had other imprints of metal pieces that would be placed in later. These would be fore straps or other things for the grand design of this object. He then pour the metal into the mold just as he had done with the other pieces. He then took the smoothing tool and started smoothing out the metal. An even portion over the whole mold was needed.

Draven kept his keen eye on this as he smoothed this out. He would do this until the metal cooled some. Using the moving tool once again like a spatula he would move the piece over to the anvil. He would start to pound out the smaller imperfections. He would also contest this against his stiff string that he made and eyeing a more smoother surface. He could feel the heat on his face as he moved close to it. Then he took this piece over to the cooling barrel and gently submerged it. The hissing and steam would errupt as he took it out. Then back to the anvil for more smoothing out. Then back to cooling. He repeated this until the piece was cool to the touch.

Draven would finally take the last bit of liquid metal from the pot and pour it onto the front side of this last piece. He would place it onto the back side of the core piece. Thus he would clamp it down as the two metals would fuse together. Finally after it was all cooled he would take this to the anvil to smooth out the edges. Then to the grind stone to get rid of burrs. Then finally the leather strap to make all surfaces even smoother. Then he would attached the fuzzy buffering tool onto the grindstone and make the front of the shield shine...

Item completed!

[Draven]

Draven would take a few items. 5 marbles that he just crafted, a buckler that was custom crafter, a gauntlet, and a pistol crossbow. He would be drawing out a rough design of what he wanted. There wouldn’t be much in movings parts but he will have to fabricate a lot of smaller stationary pieces to make it all fit. He would draw out how the shield and the gauntlet would basically be sandwitched together with the pistol crossbow in between them. For the tips of the fingers and the palm of the gauntlet the marbles would be placed. This was all for the grand scheme of the weapon. He would take a step back and smile at his ingenuity, though at this point it was but a concept. It was time to get to work.

The first part of this design that Draven wished to work on was the gauntlet itself, since it would be the hub for the other items. This would be where all the smaller pieces would branch off so that the other components would fit neatly and functionally onto it. He would start by cooking up a vat of metal. In the pot he would place a few bricks and place it into the forge. He would go to the molding table and start laying out the various parts that he was going to need. This step alone was going to take a while so he would take a bucket and fill it with red clay molding medium. He would also need a few scraps of hardwood to outline the design. The first piece would be how the pistol would sit on the gauntlet.

Draven would make a ring type of mold or rather a bracelet roughly the size of the gauntlet open end. This was going to be for replacing the handle of the pistol crossbow so that it is fixed on the forearm. He would place the wood pieces and lock them together. Then he would line it with red clay. Next he would take some liquefied metal and pour some into the mold. Returning the pot to the forge he would work on the next mold.

[Draven]

Draven started with another piece of the puzzle. It would be for the trigger of the pistol crossbow, or rather he would take the trigger guard off and the trigger itself. Instead there would be a plate connected to the wrist of the gauntlet. The one who uses this would need to bend their wrist down to fire the crossbow. It was a simple design and needed really only a small plate that would also act to fix the pistol crossbow further onto the gauntlet. The mold wouldn’t take too long and in fact he would move onto the next plate that needed doing. This would be a plate that would connect on both the right and left side of the gauntlet up to the buckler shield. These pieces would effectively hide the pistol crossbow between the two.

Draven would set up the hard would. Three outlines of molds would be created. The surface itself would be smoothed out as best he could with the best of his abilities. This protective, and deceptive casing would not only add those elements but would further fix both the crossbow and the shield to the gauntlet. He would to place the red clay medium inside the outline to solidify a good mold. This part needed absolute smoothing out and he would need to add in any curves or ornate designs with this step. It didn’t take too long but the other smaller fabricating pieces for molding would be finished up as well.

Draven would be ready to do the rest of the pouring. He took the pot of liquid metal and set it on the stagging area just above the molding table. With the large bar he would stick it in the peg hole on the other side. Gently he would start to pour some of the metal into the first mold. This had to be done carefully else the pour be uneven. He would then move onto the next piece that needed custom fabrication and would work on that as well. Then the next, and the next, he would do this until all the pieces would be poured.

[Draven]

Draven would need to wait for the pieces to cool, so rather than wait for them he would start working on the marbles. He needed to hallow them out and use the extra metal as design work for the inside of the fingers of the gauntlet. So first he would have to laser them apart in a way. To do this he would simply heat them up. He placed them on a stone plate in the forge but at a cooler spot of the forge. Reason for this was that he didn’t want the metal to melt, only to be malleable. Thus he would still need to wait for a bit of time before he could continue working on this.

Draven would wait until the first marble was red hot. He would use the tongs to take it to the anvil. He placed it on there and grabbed a plethora of tools. Thus he would start by basically cutting it in half. The one half with the kenji on it would be the pointer finger, finger tip for the gauntlet. He would hallow that out and put down the scrap pieces. He would pound out the other half of the marble along with the shavings of the hollowing. Then he would take the gauntlet and start applying the marble to the pointer finger of the gauntlet. The piece with the kenji on it would be used as the actual finger tip, the others would be simply laid upon the inside of the finger as an ornate design.

Draven would make sure there would be movability with the finger still and he wanted the marble pieces to still be touching each other. It was a simple dance of metal and joints to achieve this. Then he would take it over to the cooling barrel and dunked the gauntlet. He would check his work and fix any mistakes.

[Draven]

Draven would have created an assembly line for this now. He had the 4 other marbles ready to go. Three of them would be done just like the last one, they would be cut in half, and one half of them hollowed out. Then the shavings and the other side would be hammered out and fused to the gauntlet inner side. Thus he would place each marble just as he envisioned it, keeping in mind to keep the joints free. He would also make sure to keep the metal thin enough so that it doesn’t clash with the design of the gauntlet. Should it be too clunky to work with, then the overall design would fail. But he would continue diligently upon this idea and work until those three marbles where finished.

Next Draven would work on the marble for the palm. This marble would be cut in half as well but he wouldn’t hallow the kenji half out. No instead he would pound it down a little more flat. He would fill the gaps on the edges and then fuse it to the center of the gauntlet palm. Next he would pound out the other half into smaller flakes. With that he would create an ornate design with them on the inside of the palm, always keeping these scraps connected to the main marble in the center of the palm. His next step was to take some of the pieces from the mold table. He would start to work on fixing the crossbow in place. Taking the ring he would replace the grip handle with this part.

Draven would continue by fixing the trigger mechanism onto the wrists so that a certain kind of wrist movement would trigger the crossbow. Then he would continue by placing or rather holding the buckler just over the crossbow. This would be fixed in place with a few struts coming form the gauntlet to the buckler, on either side of the stock of the crossbow. Then he would fix the plates onto the underside of the buckler so that the crossbow would be hidden from view for the most part. With that he would check his work...
