Blacksmithing - Making a Forged Steel Dish

Follow along as I make a forged dish out of 100x10mm steel bar stock. This is more of an art piece than a functional object, a project that popped into my brain one day. A fun process that shows how the forging can create the design elements by itself.

    Thank you John! I would say the texture on the back side could work equally good! Like something taken from an old boiler or something.

    They say if you have nothing nice to say that you shouldn't say anything, so i'll try to make this criticism positive. This is the first and only thing i've ever seen you make which i don't adore. I think the exaggerated hammered texture makes this genuine, skillfully created piece of craftsmanship look like it's fake and made of plastic. it seems like something that an affluent banker or lawyer would have on their coffee table, instead of the humble, practical, wholesome, unique and beautiful pieces you have made in the past which made me fall in love with your channel. Please never fall into the trap of making things you think the algorithms will enjoy over the tens of thousands of people who love you for your uniqueness

    I try different things, and also try to ignore the algorithm most of the time. When it comes to "art pieces" like this, it's all about taste, since it has no practical use. I can understand your view, and respect that. I kind of like it, although the back side could be equally nice. :)
