Thanks Dan. I need all of the tips and ideas I can get!
..You are right Dan! These little Tips & Tricks videos do explain a lot. Especially if you were not able to cover it in a project. Things like the size of the Boss area when making a particular type or size of tongs. The angle of the cutting edge on a chisel or if it needs to be curved and other little details. Good job Dan...!!
Nice collection of tips focused on getting that next level of aesthetics in your work. Thank you for sharing.
Good video and good suggestions. These are all things I do to one extent or another. Although I have no problem using the wire brush in both directions if it helps get that last bit of scale off. I figure they're expendable and I get six months to a year out of one using it that way.
Black Bear Forge the brush I uses Is 4years old John. It works really well if you uses it in one direction and only uses it in the other direction when really need it takes that hard stuff off super easy.
I have an arrow drawn on the top of my brush so I only use it in one direction.
Useful tips.
I remember that a German smith Fritz Kuhn wrote that you should hammer the whole surface 'to make it yours '.
Always need reminders. But I did not have an arrow on my wire brush. I will add one. I also did not realize that my punch marks could be felt. Usually I place a shallow fuller mark which is more work than a punch mark.
Thanks....this should improve my every job.Enjoy your day Sir

Keep Them Coming Dan..... another great video
Thanks dude means a lot.
Thanks Dan, nice detailed step by step instruction. Enjoyed this video.
I like these tips. I already use all of them, but it took some experience to figure them out on my own. Wish I would have known them when I first started forging.
great video, enjoyed the start to finish process type tips. Being able to see the difference the tips made to a finished piece.
Great information. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Keep em coming.
Great tips, but small safety note, that funny shape on the end of the rasp is for a handle. if the rasp snags on the material it's quite amazing and painful as to how far the rasp tang can penetrate under the forearm skin. A little candlewax on the rivet as the new tongs cool down seems to last a long time.
Excellent stuff Dan. Very useful information, thank you.
Thanks for the great tips Dan.
Great info for beginners Dan. I use those from what I have learned. I use minwax furniture polish a lot also. Been busy but will keep tapping in. 😎
Nice tips. Thanks for sharing.
Best vid yet! Good info :) Thanks,
Dave
I mix beeswax with raw linseed oil and turps and it makes a great finish.
Great coffee cup
Where would we find one of those Sir?
Thanks for the tips.
cool tips and tricks ,you need a golf ball on your file for a handle ive been using them for handles for better than 30 years (only use for a golf ball) other than that keep'em coming thanks
How does one attach the golf ball?
very nice video mate. thanks for it.
keep the tips coming Dan, hopefully my old brain will retain them...haha
Thank you!
Here in the U.S., I've found that searching for butcher block brushes on restaurant supply sites yields the same brushes for less cost than searching for blacksmith brushes. The term "blacksmith" seems to increase cost, sort of like "bushcraft" or "steampunk".
Dennis O'Brien well you are in the USA 🇺🇸! Yeah there is a great inflation of price if you add the B word. Also good shout on the kitchen supplier. Thanks dude.
Great info Dan. What was mixed in with the beeswax? I use regular beeswax all the time,but I'm not sure if I've ever heard of that. sounds kind of cool. I like the way the look came out.
Ben Toombs did he say turpentine?
Grandadz Forge not sure it sound like I said Terps which could stand for turpentine that's the way I took it also but I just wanted to clarify
Ben Toombs Yeah turpentine
common blacksmiths "goop" recipe is a mix of 1 bees wax, 1 gum turpentine, 1 boiled linseed oil. Melt the beeswax in a double boiler or similar, add the other liquids and mix in, put in a container (that you can get your hand in) sets as a paste. extra hint, dont use your wifes best double boiler in the kitchen, - unless she has gone out for a couple of hours of course :)
Jack Dawg thank you. I have heard of that, I didn't know if that's what he was talking about or something different
Does that copper color work with oils
Nice video mate
No Alex today? I'm kinda getting used to having him around. Hehe Dan, Could you show something about your chimney? Of course there's no smoke from using coke but there is CO. I haven't been able to catch on about your setup. It must be pretty high up to not show in your vids.
I am at a loss for life of me I've searched and Searched for a Anvil but all the ones for sale are far gone I know can grind the surface and weld on a new steel plate but I don't as the necessary tools or a machine to grind the surface 😪
Why do you strike the anvil face after striking the material???...just a habit?
Just a heads up Dan, your hammers are advertised as having 'whalnut' wedges... animal cruelty or spelling mistake? :P Do I get a free hammer for pointing out the mistake? I could call it my grammar hammer... I couldn't think of a spelling hammer without going into spelling wand territory.
So where would we find your product for sale?
You can send me and email!! industrialartstudios@gmail.com

Great info sir. Please get ahold of me Bout a hammer please
