Great video BUT- NEVER hammer on the anvil with hardy in place.!!!!!! Many smiths have been seriously hurt doing that.

Thank you for the fantastic how-to. Well done. As you mentioned, there are opportunities to tailor to a particular preference; I'll build one that is tig-welded to a nice base to free-stand on a shelf. You've given me the start and inspiration. Thanks again.

Where did you get your “touch mark” punch?
@nathansforge Жыл бұрын
i bought it from a small shop on Esty. I looked back for it again but it no longer exists. if you look for a place that does EDM machining then they should be able to make just about anything

I know different markets will dictate price but is that a $10 cross? Drill a hole in the top and hang it on a walk or from the rear view mirror.
