Love these, I can’t wait to give ‘em a try! 🐶❤

Looks great! Btw speaking of Etsy, that's where I got my touchmark, was pretty easy to arrange. Thanks for another great lesson!

Thank you for another great lesson video! I am not only going to try these but I am going to try to make cats as well.

I'm a woodworker. Cutting wood... still isn't exciting. You're right.

How about a pair of thick leather pants as thick as your apron and a pair of leather shoes with rubber soles and cotton shoelaces and some safety glasses with side shields?

..That would be a good series to make on this and other puzzles...

Do you have the raw material lengths for the three pieces? Sounds like the heart is 24", didn't hear anything for the other pieces.

Nice video. I just bought one of these yesterday. Managed to move it without too much issue on its side by laying it down with two winches on a tilt trailer. Thankfully I laid wood on the ground outside the trailer when unloading as it did drop off a little suddenly and I might well have cracked the edge of the casting had I not planned ahead.

Congrats to everyone that participated, 20 minutes of forging time is like three minutes of regular time 😅

Chain link contest, couple did first forge welds, and in a coal forge to boot, I still can't forge weld in a coal forge, not hard in a gas forge though.

Ya couldn't put silicone under those anvils? Wrap some chain around them? Add a couple of magnets? Ya'all still able to hear anything after all that ringing?

..That hot iron don't care how old you are. Well done by all who participated...!

Excellent explanation about this process, thank you!

I usually forge on a plate over wood. I'm also thinking about putting a red hot hammer head over a log until it's steady enough.

..that may not have been an "official" video, however it was a Gud-un...!

Wish I had been able to attend

Did I saw Jennifer from JLP Services Inc amongst participants? Shot out to her🤗

Very nice work sir 👏

Is it possible to get case hardness into steel using a slurry of ground charcoal and water with some clay

Hey! Nice meeting you at ABANA 50TH

I have a peter wrightcan you tell me the value if i. Send a pic

Great info. I sent you an email a week or so ago on a Trenton anvil I have that I believe was produced in 1899, I got it from Bar Harbor Maine. I had some questions on cleaning, wire brushing it. When you get a chance, if you would check it out, I sent a bunch of photos, and let me know what you think, it would be appreciated. Thanks Tim

I've been to a blacksmithing class here with this gentleman. Great class, learned a lot.

👍✌️

An elderly man I know said his father used only a rivet forge to do 100% of all work needed on their farm. From sharpening sythes to hinges, repairing farming equipment and everything in between. I’ve decided to start with one of these for the portability and size.

Another nice anvil video thank you. I was going to mention on the last video I have a Trexton which I think is a Trenton 150 lb serial number 202 429

You make it look so easy! I was thinking... what if you do a spiral, like a snails shell under the opening. Spread it out and then the spike straight down from that. I'm thinking that different sized items would sit on the spiral of the corresponding size? Hmm.. might have to try it. Thanks for the inspiration as always!

Promo'SM 🙏

Great descriptions, love the explanations.

I know this video is a little older, but I have been doing my rounds prior to getting into this. I thought that this was well put together, and an honest discussion. I have usually found that it is better to go bigger if you can afford if off the rip, and then you can appreciate it as your skills develop (as you said). Well done.

I've seen Bertram from the channel Bertram - Craft and Wilderness use one of these. He actually dug a nice little pit for him to sit on and stick his legs in to bring his work to a more comfortable level. He used a much much smaller stump dug into the ground for his. Really cozy little set up and the best part is you can do this outside while being amongst nature. Totally legit. This is something I definitely wanna have.

Hi Philip, I hope that you are enjoying your new forge. It's an excellent forge and I've had one for about the same duration.

Thank you very much

I just came across your videos. I think they are some of the best teaching videos available. I was wondering you mentioned Abana zoom classes. Are they still available? I couldn’t find anything on line but I’m not the best at searching and finding.

I love how you walk people through what and how you are doing each step great job and a great video. Congratulations on becoming a level 1 instructor. As a level one instructor are you able or willing to judge things remotely? I have tried to email a few others the same question and after 6+ months have yet to get a response. The nearest instructor to me is about 4 or 5 hours away so going to them is very difficult for me at the moment. Trying to find the best way to go through the process. Thank you for any help or information you can give.

Classy hatwear

Glad to see it’s finally running. Mine definitely has a higher degree angle on the wedges for the dies than yours. Any idea what year that may indicate? I think you originally said mine was most likely pre-1926 on the Facebook page. I also have still not found out what the numbers on the front mean. It’s been working great though since I got it!

Thank you for this series

I love that you did this. Good review for after class.

Very good instructional video! Thank you for the great content!

I have one and need some help with what dies to use

Does it matter what type of steel you use for nailmaking? A complete newbie over here! Loved your video!

Great video, definitely want to try doing some animal heads on my projects this year!

..Neat design sir. Good tip on doing the cheek from the backside also...

Really good to see good instruction with mistakes left in!

Very great video

Oh also. If you just lightly wipe alittle diesel over the letting. It may help bring out more of the name.
