I Forge Iron

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi all,

I joined up to continue my self education as I am just starting to gather the goodies to start pounding on hot metal. Picked up a great 282# Hay Budden a couple years ago off CL just for grins and it's been calling to me ever since.

I just started collecting parts and pieces to put together a little propane forge. Thought I'd start just learning to pound, bend, punch, etc. on some scrap and RR spikes to get a feel for it and eventually try to make a knife or two.

At any rate, we'll see where I end up. I am very anxious to get started and wanted to tell everyone hello and thanks for all the great info here.

Hey Rob,
Welcome to IFI. Glad you finally listened to your anvil. Plenty of people here with tons of knowledge (and opinions) who are more than willing to share. Got a question? Just ask. You'll get a reply. Probably information overload but thats good.
