bwoollcombe Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Not a review as much as an offer to scan and share if there's interest (and it's not available elsewhere... haven't found it with a search yet). This was gifted to me. It looks like a great curriculum Blacksmithing James M Drew Webb Book Publishing, Saint Paul Minnesota, 1935 Reprint 1975, 300 copies ISBN #0-8466-6037-7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwoollcombe Posted December 11, 2023 Author Share Posted December 11, 2023 Also, were I to scan this, where should it be posted and archived? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHCC Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Is this different from Drew's book Farm Blacksmithing, which can be accessed online HERE? The first photo in your post has the same images and text as appear on pages 24 and 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwoollcombe Posted December 11, 2023 Author Share Posted December 11, 2023 Seems to have some of the same content as the 1901 book! The 1935 doesn't go in to general farm skills - it sticks to blacksmithing pretty tightly. The bits on specific technique seems greatly revised. Nice catch, and thankyou!

Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 One thing I thought was interesting in Drew's Farm Blacksmithing was the forge he advised to use was a JABOD.
