Default Blacksmithing Video Demo's

Hi all,
I'd like you to have a look at these please and tell me what you guys think of them. I shot them in Dale Russell's (Chopper) workshop a month or so ago to try the video function out on my camera more than anything else. It's a leaf keyring.

When Glenn's done some stuff I'll be posting some other video's here directly, other Smiths at work etc.

Enjoy Ian

Thanks for putting these up!
It helps a newbie like me when I can see something instead of just reading about it.

Latvius,
your welcome This is kind of why I wanted feedback, video is in my opinion the way to go with Blueprints and I know that Glenn is working on this, I thought I'd post these to give people an idea of what 'may' be available on here down the line a bit.
If you like those then this is the latest one:

The video section of the IForgeIron Gallery has been operational for a long while.

Some of the videos sent to the gallery were 10 to 12 megs and larger and unable to be viewed by anything other than a high speed connection. We are working to get it tweeked properly so even these can be available to everyone.

If you combine a photo and text Blueprint with a video you have the very best of both learning tools.

unable to be viewed and unable to be uploaded as well Glenn, as soon as video was an option for the gallery people tried, not always with success sadly. Because of the size issue I've linked to the video's as opposed to using the gallery, I'll wait till it's 'tweaked' before trying again.

Ian,

I like them, but would like to hear some commentary while the video is going, such as "now I'm drawing out the leaf", "This is how I form the leaf", "now I'm drawing out the stem", etc...

I think they're helpful the way they are though. Thanks for sharing!
