I think the skill is revived because of YouTube. I'm thankful. Thats where i learn. Good Anvils are expensive. I made my own out of scrap forklift tines. A cheap cast steal anvil is good but cast iron is junk. If I buy an anvil one day it will likely be cheap cast steelA hundred and ten years ago my father as a teenager self taught himself these skills, primarily for horseshoes but also other necessities on the pioneer farm of his father. I remember as a child seeing the forge and tools set aside and rusting, a victim of time and convenience just as we experience today with digitalization. Admirable that you have revived the skill, even in a simplistic form.
Yeah just a little at a time. Work yourself a little and you’ll get stronger. I think He is willing. Exercise profits a little and it is necessary. It will be good for you, doing what yo love and profiting…. I use an electric furnace, 850 watts.A forge heats the steal. I use a burner like you probably use for melting metal. Mine only heats the metal so I can shape it on an anvil with a hammer. It does take strength and I am weak. I'll keep it simple and light duty and I will build back my strength I hope. God willing.
Amen.Yeah just a little at a time. Work yourself a little and you’ll get stronger. I think He is willing. Exercise profits a little and it is necessary. It will be good for you, doing what yo love and profiting…. I use an electric furnace, 850 watts.

I once thought of being a photographer. I wanted to express how the world is and how I see it.I enjoy observing the foibles of mankind which according to God is most everything we deem wise. Also photography (the original form also lost to time)
The world seems fine. Its the people that ruin itI wanted to express how the world is and how I see it.
Yes.The world seems fine. Its the people that ruin it
edit: Actually come to think of it, it is the ruins of the things man makes that is a favourite subject. We are not good caretakers and even worse creators. So temporary.
Like gold and dross maybeBut there is beauty to be found in the ruins of what man has made as God returns it to dust.
