great work, very informative video! I've always wanted to get a forge of my own, and really enjoy watching people keeping up the art of metal smithing these days!
Thank you very much. If you have any land at all you can start out like I did with a forge made from a hole in the ground, a piece of pipe, and my wife’s hair dryer.
Nice work ! Have you ever tried hot rasping ? I watched a challenge where they made a Bowie without using power tools , seemed very effective but I’ve never tried it. Pet that dog for me. :-)
Yessir, I do a little hot rasping every now and then. That dog doesn’t want to be petted, she’s far too dignified for that. Petting is beneath her and is for lesser creatures. She considers herself the queen and ruler of all she surveys.
@@serendipityforge333 LOL ! The dog must have been influenced by cats ! I have hot filed on mild steel , but have not attempted rasping on higher carbon steels , guess that’s something I’ll need to add to the skill set , forge welding as well

..you could really see the metal going from one side to the other as you drew the metal from the middle towards the edge. Great work moving it...!
Thank you. For me it’s one of the hardest thing to do in bladesmithing.
