My father had us hike to here from a cabin near I'm French creek! What a memory

looking forward to renewal of iron smithing here

underrated. More need to know about this. I went Women's History event today. It was raining, and i basically had the whole place to myself.

Visited today and found the site to be a hidden gem that rivals many historical sites I have seen! You can actually walk in the areas and buildings where people worked and lived, and even touch the items they made. We sat in rooms where families gathered and could feel the sense of a time long ago. Also the site is located in a beautiful area and very well kept. Thank you.

Love it. How did this video escape my notice for 7 years?! Everyone else's notice too, by the look of this comment section.

How many day become charcoal

Women are not free and neither are men. Can men or women have children in a society that is not overpopulated/concieved and economically unstable?, vote for a candidate or party that practices and promotes the family lifestyle and value system?, surround themselves with messages of family(s) values or state a belief in the family(s) system without their livelihood being threatened?!

There are no African-Americans; they are African or European.

There is no such thing as being liberated from work; work is something you do for your immediate family and people while trying to remain on your land - work is freedom!

Everyone was a slave, because they were separated from their homeland and their people.

Excellent!

Here in Ohio we called them Raggies. They were itinerants that traveled around NE Ohio and used the method shown here. We used smaller stacks of wood but there was still a shrinkage of 40-50%. We used water to cool things down enough so that a fire wouldn't start while raking out.

Where is Hopewell ?

Visited today on a cold wintery Jan. day. Beautiful in the winter just to stroll the grounds and listen to the park rangers speak of the history of Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site.

I used to live in Philadelphia and visited the site many times. Under-appreciated treasure of the various historical sites in the NPS system. Great video.

In England, the men would sit up all night on watch to make sure things smoldered and did not begin to flare up. To stop them falling asleep, they'd use two-legged stools (rather like a milking stool, but minus a leg). If they fell asleep, they'd fall off the stool and wake up. Hence the term, 'nodding off'.

The perfect way to make charcoal... step by step

The demise of charcoal making in the United States is misleading as it continues to this day. Perhaps not to be used in smelting iron but rather in cooking and many other uses. Charcoal making still lives on.

the audio on this is amazing

This is a great and very informative video. Planning to visit the site tomorrow.

Great video, wonderful place.

Where can I learn to properly make charcoal like this?

Incredible video! Visited last weekend, but didn't have time to do theater in the visitor center. Currently the highest resolution on UA-cam is 480p. Would love a 1080 or 4k version if possible!

Nice video, but the metal being handled in this video appears to be aluminum. I suppose it works to demonstrate how the foundry would have run without the expense of actually running the furnace all the way up to iron temperatures.
