Timothy Miller Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 I found this video on you-tube. The striking is amazing. There are a whole series of then as well as blacksmiths and sheet metal workers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ine5BEzxXWg&feature=endscreen&NR=1 Quote
Randy Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Pretty good! If you go to YouTube and his site he has a lot of other forging, jewelry and casting videos, too. Quote

nuge Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 I bet its the start of some sort of raised vessel. Looks similar to the Mexican coppersmiths routine, except they stand and the hammers are bigger. Quote
