    Great ! Mr. Ross does know how to hit once and NOT TWICE when it comes to adjusting a scroll. It seems like nothing but I feel like it's a big sign of how much experience there is behind the hammer blow. Thank you for sharing the knowledge with us, once again !

    Great video , I sure would love to attend one of these event one day. The scroll is really nice you can tell he has been doing this for awhile. What a master blacksmith.

      Peter is one of the best there is. Especially when it comes to 18th century American iron work

    Great video. Loved it. I wish I had a thing like this were I live. And now I can put a face to the name of Peter Ross. Have a good day!

    Looks exactly like a New England Blacksmiths conference. As a new smith ( 3+years) my only problem with those meetings is being the stranger compared to all the old timers who know each other. I’m just to the point where I know people when I get there.

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      That is always a problem in a new group. But its well worth it.

      His presence on the WoodWrights show is one of the things that got me into blacksmithing

    I've never had to pay for a get together. We've always had Iron In The Hat. Occasionally a request for donations if a member has had a hardship. Other than $25 annual dues, that's it.

      Most small events certainly don't have the same expense. But we do draw participants from all over the country and pay three of the best smiths we can get to come and teach for the weekend. The event is held at a school that has a well equipped shop with multiple forging stations, dorm rooms and above average food in the kitchen. None of that comes cheap. it has remained a popular regional event for 28 consecutive years.

    John is Peter a really good blacksmith, I have heard his name a bit.

  •  6 лет назад +2

    Brave fellow blacksmithing in front of other blacksmiths. Do blacksmiths gossip like other groups, did you see the way he did that, not the way I do it?

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад +1

      Of course they do. But it is rare to hear anyone second guessing Peter

  • @lenblacksmith8559
    @lenblacksmith8559 6 лет назад

    John just a thought, when you get time could you do a video on tapering a square for the hardy hole evenly. I asked young Paul Pinto about this and he said you have to be careful you don't get oh this funny name basically an obscure taper. Oh a 'Roumbus'.

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      I will see what I can come up with. Its really just a matter of being careful and paying attention to whats happening

    John, are you planning to adopt his practice of wearing shorts in the shop? Might help on those hot days.

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      The little scale burns on my arms are bad enough, I doubt that wearing shorts will ever become a habit for me.

    Peter Ross is a lefty??? That's not right...
    Anyway, watch how steady his right hand is while he's hammering.. It's almost perfectly still unless he wants it to move.

    Audio isn’t great.

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      Of course it isn't. I am part of a group in an audience. This demonstration was not done solely for my benefit to record for youtube. There are extreme limitations in this type of setting and you take what you can get or don't bother.

    Why is his anvil so much louder than yours? Did you wear ear protection?

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      Most people do wear hearing protection during this event. My anvil has been made as quiet as I can make it for the sake of doing videos. ruclips.net/video/Z3365vFHXhw/видео.html The anvil at the conference has to be unbolted and moved for the best view during the demos, it would be quieter bolted to the floor.

    I'm definitely signing up for the entire conference next year.
    Do you camp up on the lot or stay at the school?

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      We stay in the dorm. Makes it easy if we aren’t on the same schedule every day. Last night I was in the shop until almost 11:00 but Janet was able to go back to the dorm and call it a day early.

    Hey John was he using mild steel or wrought iron. I joined my local abana group a few weeks ago still waiting to hear from them. Can’t wait to go to something like this only in my neck of the woods
    Thx for sharing John ..... Paul

    How can you come to the conference? What credentials do you need?

    • @BlackBearForge
      @BlackBearForge  6 лет назад

      No credentials required. Just sign up ahead of time or make sure there is space and sign up here. Registration usually starts around the end of May and the conference is the first or second weekend in August each year. But check your local groups, they may have something similar at different times of the year. We will be headed over to Utah next month for a similar but smaller conference.
