Great, Have fun!

Watching you just makes me wanna be a blacksmith that only makes tongs

Hi, I've been mechanic for fifty years, have a few old smithing tools from a house I lived in, and have forged my own occasional special tool, for most of these years. I'm retired now, with my own shop, in "farm country", and have learned a lot from this, and other videos. I've done some pretty rough and crude work, "good enough to do the job", but have been setting up to do it right, and this has been a great video, of exactly what I did wrong thirty years ago, forging a set of tongs, that have worked, barely, and will get "re-worked" next week, into a decent shape. Excellent technique, patience, hammer skill, a real pleasure to watch. Thanks for the enthusiasm, encouragement, and high standard of craftmanship!!

Thanks John! Much appreciated, good luck!

I am so impressed on how precise in length and curvature you made the tongs. It amazes me! I could watch you make things for hours!! Great video!

I could watch you work all day. It doesn’t even make me tired. Lol. Beautiful stuff.

Thanks Dave!

Dear Sir, I wanted to thank you for your videos. I have admired the art of blacksmithing for a long time, and watching your videos, inspired me to take a teaser course at the Memphis Metal Museum. It was not a bad choice, I remembered many of the things you did in your videos and produced a forged hook that was by far the best in the group. And yet I'd never swung a hammer before that day to strike a red hot piece of mild steel. I will continue to enjoy your videos and learn as I can. I hope to find a someone with the equipment to further my interest, and much of it is thanks to you. I wish you a great life and joy Sir.

Recycling at its best. Very skilful drawing out the steel with the power hammer. Great work from a true Craftsman. Thank you.

I always appreciate how clean and neat your work looks and these tongs were no exception. Thank you for sharing

Another fantastic video. I really appreciate when you speed through the repeat sections and slow down for the details. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

i just love your videos, especially the sound, many people who make videos of blacksmithing think it's a great idea to put music, but that just kills it, nothing beats the good ol' sound of iron getting hammered that's why i really love your videos, and your craftsmanship is always a pleasure to watch!

You have a most wonderful skill. The ability to forge metal is just fascinating. I could watch it all day long and the mech hammer is just awesome. To be able to make your own tools from someones else's scrap magic.

Unbelievable hand forging! This is how they must have done it hundreds maybe thousands of years ago. The well controlled hammer blows quickly shaped the spring steel into a usable destruct proof pair of tongs.

I really like to see people working with their hands and head, great video's. Thank you !!
