    Blacksmith from the elves !!! Love the clever tooling, the no-talking, the nature intermezzo, the open and clean workshop! What I learned: precise stick-welding by holding the welding stick itself at the end. Why did I never think about that or did I never see that before?

    This video is impressive on so many levels. 1) the method of creating the socket is genius. 2) the specialized tools you have made to make these chisels. Power hammer dies especially. Your forge welding technique is looks nearly flawless (from someone who has never picked up a hammer). The layout of your shop is super smart. Excellent work and video. Thank you.
