Clara learns how to blacksmith from her dad, Ned. He's been doing metalwork his entire career, and she hasn't blacksmithed at all. Join in on the journey!
First time viewer here, Awesome video, patient and thoughtful explanations about your process, farm and garden tools were what initially inspired me to begin my journey into blacksmithing, If ya don't mind sharing, you mention tool steel, have you found you like any particular tool steel/high carbon formulation? I love the hexagonal stock btw it seems like it would provide some additional rigidity especially if you were to use it on any long handled tools

Hi Clara! I'm so happy that you've started this channel with your dad! I've missed your tutorials on OFS; they are definitely the best of all of the YT sewing tutorials I've watched and followed. I've learned so much from you! (I made 6 large panels of roman shades, with no prior experience, by watching your instructions). So... I am so excited to have found you here, starting a new chapter. I also appreciate the fact that you and your dad will be preserving and passing on such beautiful and practical skills to the next generations. We all will benefit from working more with our hands, being intrinsically motivated and rewarded by the process of learning and a job well-done. Best of success to you both!! 🤩😍❤
@FamilyForge9 ай бұрын
Thanks so much! Wow, I'm impressed with the 6 roman shades, they're a lot of work! While sewing and blacksmithing are very different, I love anything that involves making things with my hands. Glad you found me and love that there's some crossover between the channels!

Thanks for this. I just started blacksmithing a few weeks ago. What looked so easy in videos and TV, turned out to be much more challenging than anticipated, but it’s a lot of fun, too. So far, I’ve only made tongs…which are required before making actual things. This will be a great first project!
