May 30, 20179 yr A member of our Community Forge, Ron Kelly, had a session in our shop video recorded by his son in law. Really great production values and a great view of our Tom Kennon Blacksmith Shop in Doniphan, Missouri. The link is:
May 31, 20179 yr Great production value but unfortunately it does not appear that this old smith actually knows anything about blacksmithing.
May 31, 20179 yr I am jealous, I wish there was a forge like that that I could hang out in, and interesting old gents like that to be around. Great little video.
May 31, 20179 yr So Beammeupscotty, are you saying I didn't make a mistake not watching and longer than him playing with the fire? Whew, what a relief. Frosty The Lucky.
June 18, 20179 yr Watching the tremors in his hands, I bet he has lost a lot of grip strength over the years.
June 18, 20179 yr I would wager that "old blacksmith" has forgotten more than many of us know. I'm pushing 75 and hope I can still swing a hammer in the coming years.

July 4, 20179 yr its a great video History and a wealth of years would love to have a day with the old guy. Great tribute
July 4, 20179 yr I wish the son of my old master had the same respect for his father. When he passed away, the son who was too good to set foot in the father's shop, sold the land to the local developer and the tools for junk
