Hobbit Hole Interior Hinge

#blacksmith #blacksmithing #hobbithole
In this video, I forge and fabricate the inner hinge for my hobbit door. This is actually a faux hinge or dummy hinge...It does not actually attach to the functioning hinge which is on the outside of the door. This faux hinge is decorative but also provides a stiffener to the wood so does serve a structural purpose. I decided to outsource the design for this piece as I wanted an Art nouveau design, and had recently stumbled upon the work of Victoria from Forged Francova. This Ukrainian woman makes wonderful pencil sketches of wrought ironwork. When I saw her work, I knew instantly I wanted her to design the hinge. I was not disappointed. The process of forging the pieces then assembling them (fabrication) was straightforward, but very time-consuming.

This lady really loves adding extra weight on that door. She really trust your hinge.

You should get sponsored by Metalblade records. Every time you wear a shirt for a band I've never heard of I pause the video and go check it out.

how have i missed the ron jeremy pose before lol awesome content

Awesome build! Genuine functioning hinges, why not impossible are still quite a project. Having built a Hobbit playhouse for my grandkids I used conventional heavy duty door hardware on the inside, and decorative on the outside. My hardware in no way compared to the beautiful work you have forged. Wish I had seen this video, although your work will remain “aspirational” for me!

In Germany we call this style "Jugendstil", which translates to "style of the youth". It was highly appreciated in the very beginning of the twentieth century, before the first big war. Very nicely done. Looks awesome. ^_^

Well well well... Your are making my blacksmith itch more itchier than i would like. I stopped smithing 4-5 years ago. And man how i miss it. Great work... i like the variety and interest of your work. You do it simple but elegantly. Well done sir.

That is one classy looking Hobbit inner door hinge. Keep up this level of content, and the algorithm is bound to find the channel eventually...

[@purplealice]

It's fascinating to watch you make hammered metal lace.

Looks badass

Quality Mate!

[@paulObriant]

Fantastic...

[@dragonstonegemironworkscra4740]

THIS! It actually answered several of my ponderings on how to attach an ornate hinge to a door. So it's nails as opposed to "rivots". Muchly appreciated! BTW you are the driving inspiration to this project! 🙏🔥⚒️🧙🏼‍♂️

[@RedmarKerkhof]

That's a beautiful design! A fruitful collaboration for sure. The hobbit hole is really starting to come together now. Exciting stuff!
