    In my latest workshop project video, I needed to make a latch for the chicken coop. I took this opportunity to practice some blacksmithing techniques that I have been watching on RUclips. I combined several different techniques and methods for this blacksmithing project. I am not considering this a pure blacksmith latch, I just needed a lock for the chicken coop, so I made one. Thank you to all the blacksmith that share their skill on RUclips!

    I loved seeing how the metal moved to make that U shaped part. I always appreciate how you show different ways to solve problems. The sound of the latch is so satisfying.

    No wonder why blacksmiths were thought of as magicians in ancient times. Now we look at it and there's a science behind it, but it still seems magical. Love your videos they suck you in with the sounds of progress and work, what you make is practical art and it's truly an inspiration. Thank you.

    That latch is for when times get rough, and they're going to get rough.
