Just getting started in this as a hobby, built a brake drum forge got a couple hammers and chisels, and an anvil of course. thoughts of making knives and tomahawks got me interested now i am hooked. i have made a couple wall hooks and attempted a couple sets of tongs. youtube has been my only source of education. I am in east tennesse and do not know of much blacksmithing that goes on around my area. was wondering about good places to learn or pick up info other than trial and error or maybe a book that is really useful. thanks for any help or suggestions.
