Dirty Smith Blacksmithing Tutorial: How to Forge Metal Vines

[@markling712]

I enjoyed the last part with your wife ALOT! PLEASE do more like this, it gave me a good smile and laugh, and it also allowed you to point out, well, what not to do. I liked it a lot, good video.

[@Dirtysmith]

Thanks for the feedback, Mark!

[@bradymcphail9690]

I'm happy for forging Friday being back! I'm a beginner too, it's great to see Amanda doing her thing. you both are very uplifting. Please never stop...

[@Dirtysmith]

Thank you, Brady!

[@craigmccolm285]

Thanks for the demo ! Nice to see Amanda having a good time.

[@BoilermakerSteve]

Great to have a Forging Friday again. You are a great demonstrator and teacher. And, yes they are call tendrils in plants.

[@Dirtysmith]

Tendrils it is!

[@paullinneth5945]

fantastic to have a forging friday back rory. Gidday Amanda from Australia and keep him on his toes and hope to see you guys together in more videos.

[@brandoncox7460]

best episode ever!!!!! please keep the forging Fridays coming

[@brianfrombreckenridge2972]

As a blacksmith (with about five minutes more experience than your wife) I can appreciate the difference between the two of you. I love all your videos but this one is by far my favorite. Thanks for showing the contrast in skill level. You guys ROCK! Keep forging Fridays alive.

[@chrisrowan1264]

epic. if u have the patience to teach ur wife to forge and if Manda u have the patience to listen, u guys are gold..... loved the vid and always fun to watch

[@Dirtysmith]

Thanks for the feedback, Chris!

[@greathornedforge1133]

So glad to see another "Forging Fridays" video! Been missing these much!!!

[@Dirtysmith]

past 6 months have been busy! thanks for watching!

[@greathornedforge1133]

Dirty Smith I've always enjoyed your videos, and recommend the 'Forging Fridays' videos to new 'smiths! Thanks for bringing them back.

[@timothymillay6045]

love the video. don't stop making the forging Friday's.

[@genesmith9238]

thanks for bringing back forging fridays luv the how to vids

[@aox32]

Awesome video and great work Amanda! I agree with Amanda, that when starting out, it's difficult to remember how to go about it once the metal is hot because of all one must remember until it because second nature. It's a beautiful thing to see an experienced blacksmith move metal so fluently. I hope I can do this half as good as Amanda did.

[@Dirtysmith]

I often forget about that and was happy she mentioned it. Reminds me to bring it back a little

[@RedSmithWorkshop]

Great video. I loved it. It was nice to see another technique, it was funny and entertaining, and great to see Amanda giving it a try. She nailed it for her first time. Happy the Forging Friday are back !

[@Dirtysmith]

Thanks again Red for the support!

[@petermooney2823]

The dream team. Fantastic.

[@anthonycook9764]

its lovely to see a young lady enjoy the trade and her time at the forge

[@HeathKnuckles_Tasty_Timber]

Sweet video! 🤘 Thanks for sharing guys!

[@glennlawrie-smith8570]

Double thumbs up for showing your wife having fun.

[@Recontrooper22]

Army vet and now apprentice blacksmith ( never too late to learn great trades ). I love your videos, It makes it easier for me at the forge ( it is like cheating when my Master blacksmith is showing me something, hahahahaha ) and it helps me when teaching a few tricks to my 11 y.o. daugther in my garage... Keep it up, I just love the enthusiasm ... Keeping it dirty :)

[@stronglikemonkey]

What a good sport (Amanda) and what a patient teacher (Rory)! Or maybe I got that backwards?

[@timsway]

very interesting to watch both of you do this at different skill levels. nice video!

[@Dirtysmith]

Thank you for watching, Tim!

[@paulenglish7950]

Awesome guys, best forgin' vid for a while, reducing diameter in the vice saves on more hittin' and hammer marks, good stuff

[@darbypereira1980]

Tendrils a long thin part of some plants that joins onto things and helps to support the plant

[@Heigel67]

Amazing video, i missed the forging fridays they're great !

[@davidvigneux6929]

Sweet!! I love forging fridays! Thanks for sharing! Those last videos with Amanda have really been fun to watch. Also, the world really is in need of a blacksmithing channel that doesn't do frickin knives; if I see another backyard damascus steel video I'm gonna puke!

[@Dirtysmith]

David...I love you. You get a shirt! Email me a what shirt and size! info at dirtysmith.com

[@davidvigneux6929]

For Real! Thanks Rory! I'll do it!

[@GibClark]

Cool to see Amanda forging ! 👍👍👍

[@Dirtysmith]

she loves it!

[@GibClark]

Dirty Smith well that's just awesome !!!

[@mattbonney2883]

You guys are awesome! Good teacher and good student!!

[@mossyhollow3732]

My mentor called that a cone twist (like ice cream cone). Fun video.

[@paradisefalls37]

Nice video! Really cool to watch. Thanks for sharing.

[@jagboy69]

Great work as always Rory. Now if only I can get my wife to stop wearing my keep it dirty shirt! Good times! Great job Amanda, way to go!

[@WilliamLutesMaker]

AMANDA ROCKS !!!!

[@Dirtysmith]

thanks, Lutes! She had a great time

[@nickd5943]

Thank you Rory. another great vid. You did great job teaching your wife. Please let her help in more vids. Oh i like it better when you snap your fingers and she said " Keep it dirty". Just me.

[@alanbuban9020]

great job Amanda...your are correct, less symmetry makes it more 'natural' and adds character to the vine...I like it.

[@roberthughes6240]

go girl, get in and do some more!

[@LetsPrepTogether]

Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing

[@Dirtysmith]

Thanks for watching, Alex!

[@austinsandoval3522]

holy smokes! I didn't know you came out with a new video. I need to pay attention to my patreon. cheers, Rory.

[@willowzietman8454]

Great video! You two are so adorable together! :)

[@MoonshineMetalworks]

great stuff mate, really cool seeing Amanda at the anvil! Keep up the great content buddy!

[@Dirtysmith]

Thank you!

[@GreenShortzDIY]

Nice! These would make cool table legs with a stone or wood block top. You're making me think. The vice manipulation was a nice touch. Could hear strains of your sense of joy as Amanda took the hammer. :-)

[@64t120r]

Nice job Amanda!

[@davidmlaut]

[@starforged]

Amanda is much better with the camera but you are much better blacksmith but Amanda is much better looking. You make a great team but not at the same time. Kidding! You are a great team. Thank you....

[@Dirtysmith]

lol! thank you, sir

[@elchick8328]

Wow, I have to say, your wife can get DIRTY! :D Awesome video, Rory. And awesome to see your wife jump right in too.

[@lyntonr6188]

Great video , i will be waiting for the first album from the new band snake coil taper ...

[@Dirtysmith]

lol she is working on it!

[@stampenrangers]

You two are great!! Love it!

[@Dirtysmith]

thanks!

[@drason69]

Very cool to see Amanda at the forge....but doesn't it just drive you crazy, watching new smiths bludgeon the steel? We were all like that once. :)

[@Dirtysmith]

I have a problem watching smiths who should know better demonstrating bad habits. People learning never bother me.

[@darkdraggon]

👍👍👍👍 2 a piece, great video!

[@simoncroatia]

Great, thank you for the video.

[@Dirtysmith]

Thank you for watching!

[@elmcityvintage]

I like it!

[@TonyUrryMakes]

Best moment? - “ I wanna try!”

[@PaulMeyette]

So cool.....

[@markvreeken]

Nice one

[@leelyon6645]

yayayayayayayayayayayayay!

[@Mark-bm9dx]

Some of the best forging is done when drinking. Can solve all the world's problems too.....

[@tonywalker8030]

Wife is a fast learner.

[@sammanno3303]

Have you ever slit down the center and twisted flat bar (1"x1/4") to make a hanging ornament. I saw one done by CJ forge but not how They did it,Could be a good Demo.Thanks

[@Dirtysmith]

sounds like you have it figured out ;)

[@sammanno3303]

I have never seen it done,maybe you could show how to do it in one of your UTube videos

[@matthewbuckley5998]

brilliant :-D

[@ShogunJimi]

fun - #forgeaddiction LOL
