    Take care stay healthy and have a good week

    Hi John, very nice project, really beautiful..... When the FBI comes... LOL. But I've a question. Can you please tell me what the size of your dies in the blacksmith magician is (l x w x h). In Europe it's hard to find the blacksmith magician.

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  2 года назад +1

      roughly 20 x 50 x 100mm. But these are made in so many variations you can do just about anything to suit your needs. Finding a readily available stock size for the dies then making the tool to fit is a good way to go.
