My first wrought iron hammer 2weeks ago went fine, and welded very smoothly. It weights about 750g and is the 4th forgewelding project i have done. So i got brave and have now attempted a 1.7kg hammer. I think it went fine, but the weld line is rather visible and runs like a little 1mm creek instead of fusing all the way out. Im kinda somewhat sure the weld is ok, because i did alot of forging to shape on it afterward without it coming apart. I recon there is alot of gut feeling involved in doing welds and it only comes with experience. If just it would make a computer game lvl up sound "diiing" when the weld sets :)

Once the bloom is excavated from the bloomery, there's not much chance of reheating it. They are working against the clock to get the metal forged into something usable.

It seems to be clay, it turns into ceramics which is quite heat-resistant. Maybe silica sand can be mixed into it? Don't know specifics.

The effort to reward ratio was crazy. The amount of iron you got from all that ore and charcoal was pretty minimum and that's why metal was a great currency back in those times as it took great effort to recover such small amounts.

iron was never a great currency. Although it was the last for at least of few civilizations. Agreed though- Huge amounts of fuel and labor go into a small output. In fact, they still do! Cheers :)
