Oh, that's really cool! I was picturing a whole shed devoted to blacksmithing... what you have pictured seems very practical and self-contained.
I'm really curious about what sorts of things you are going to make! Looks like a fun hobby! I can picture making some real nice plant hangers as Christmas gifts. :)
Thanks Ron, I love the idea of being able to work with steel with such a simple set up. All you really need to have a forge is a fire and some way to give it air. I am probably going to use an old hair dryer as my fan.
I hope to make a set of grates for my buck stove, I need some heavy duty gate hinges, I could also make some pretty nice gates too. The list could go on and on. We I get it built and up and running I'm sure my "Honey-Do" list will be full. Olivia has some projects for me too. Thanks Chris
Just a guy that was born and raised in West Virginia and moved to Kentucky trying to raise a family on a small farm. We have goats, ducks, chickens, lots of dogs and raise a garden. Trying to live life simple and as peacful as possible. It's not as easy as it sounds.
