So, about 20 miles away, there was a brilliant 19th century-era working village... Complete with a #blacksmith shop and old school #printing press! But sadly, it was disassembled and the land sold...

These ancient tongs have been missing their clip for as long as we’ve had them. I finally got sick of them being open in the drawer and made a new clip during my lunch break out of fencing wire. Cold forged, since it’s light material and zinc coated.
Mijn meesterwerk voor de opleiding Technicus Hout en Restauratie aan Talland College is af. De gerestaureerde poort met een replica van het deurkalf van de smederij en een reclamebord oude stijl is af. Afgelopen weekend was de feestelijke onthulling.

I just heard a Blacksmith say there's two key things to Blacksmithing:
1) Get it hot
2) Hit it
Seems legit.
I won't be able to practise very often, but there might be a chance here and there ...

Several projects at the same time :
6 #Knife dinner set, 4 butter #knives, 3 little utility knives with ebony and dear antlers handle.
Forging is done on this piece.
Once again, this crappy truck leaf spring split as I was drawing out the blade. I've electric-welded the split but I'm not happy about it. Thus, after re-drifting the eye, I declared it done, despite it being a bit rough. No point spending too much time on this if it might fail in testing.
It's cooling now, then I'll do a grind, make a shaft and test it on some wood. The eye ended up unevenly placed, so it might end up being a side-axe yet.

New project this arvo. A bearded axe, since I still had a chunk of truck leaf spring from the last one.
I’ve stopped for the day at this point. More drawing out of the beard is required and some cleanup of the curve between the eye and the beard.
Bonjour
voici le manche de marteau de forge pour un maréchal ferrant. Taillé dans du faux Acacia ou Robinier, gravé, teinté et patiné. La base du pommeau est garnie d'une petite pièce en bronze matée par un clou à tête bombée.

It’s raining today (on and off) so I fired up the forge.
Initially I was going to make a belt buckle, but the material I had wasn’t behaving so I ditched that for now and started on this instead.
I’ve been playing a lot of KCDII lately and figured I might try either a Knight’s Axe or a polearm. Either way, I needed to make an eye, which is as far as I got today. The steel is a piece of truck leaf spring.
Before Cyclone Alfred, I packed up a lot of the blacksmithing area downstairs to avoid various bits and pieces becoming projectiles in the predicted winds. Since it's quite damp today, I figured it was a good time to put everything back in order and forge out a simple starter project to get back in the swing of things.
Thus, this S-Hook came in to being from a cut-off of 10mm reo (rebar).

Although the #bridge closure would have been inconvenient, I had a look at what this #forge / #blacksmith makes and its not that large/heavy items (vehicles over 7 500 kg are forbidden from the bridge anyway) - I do wonder if it was a coincidence his business had trade decline and the real reason is even relatively middle class folk are skint, and simply can't afford artisan forged garden ornaments? #Suffolk #roads #transport
A couple small keyracks, Live edge Ash for the larger and a small piece of reclaimed teak from broken furniture. Hooks are forged and twisted Horseshoe nails

Back in 2018, I made this very handy mini egg-flip. And for what it was designed to do (flip eggs, move biscuits off trays, etc) it excelled.
However, youngest child has been using it to fry steaks and pressing down on the steak in the process, so the thin shank glued in to a turned wooden handle was a weak point. The wood broke.
Rather than just make another handle with the same problem, I set about fixing the attachment point.
I took some engineering grade stainless bar, and forged down a small part of it and formed a cone, then welded that to the egg-flip shank. The existing wooden handle fits inside beautifully. I'm now waiting for the epoxy holding it in there to set before it can go back in service.
