heres one where you can down load a lot of different media books films ect. http://www.archive.org and search for anvil , forge etc. All the material is for one reason or another public domain so legal to down load. all the books are pretty old 1900's and pre. but here is what i found so far Forge work ([c1912]) Blacksmith shop practice .. (c1910) Practical blacksmithing. A collection of articles contributed at different times by skilled workmen to the columns of "The Blacksmith and wheelwright" .. (1888-91) Forge work ([c1912]) Forge-practice (elementary) (1904) and a few more You can also get buster keatons 'the blacksmith' there too happy reading |

This isn't a book nor free but I thought it worth including anyway. Metalworking instruction videos on DVD: Learn Metalworking Frosty
