Hey Folks,

I'm hoping someone can help me. I saw a video posted here some time ago (link to one on YouTube); and I can't for the life of me find it. I've tried every combination of search terms I can think of, but just can't seem to spot the post or remember which thread it was in.

Anyways, the video was an old black and white film, looked to be part of a documentary. It showed Blacksmiths making gates, grilles, etc using a lot of slitting and drifting, passing the bars through each other. It looked to be in a rather heavy, industrial setup rather than in a small smithy, yet they were using hand hammers.

If I recall correctly, what voice over/text there was was in German, and it had classical music playing.

Any chance one of you knows the video I'm talking about and has the link bookmarked? Or remembers which thread it was in here on IFI?

Cheers,
Neil

I believe it is Smeden in Duitsland  

It has classical music in the background.  One Blacksmith with a striker.  

one of my favorite videos, its criminal how easy they make all that look!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

... I searched all over for this video. Couldn't for the life of me remember what it was called. Have it saved to my 'Favorites' list in YouTube now.

Cheers guys!
Neil

Neil put in on paper in a note book.

One of my favorites also. I have it and many others downloaded, but those too could be lost.

You really can't beat that Glenn. A question (with some fairly obscure clues) asked and answered within a few hours.

That's why this community rocks!
