    They turned out very nice, I like the brass hardware. I'd like to invest in an induction forge myself someday!

    I just found out about your channel. Very inspired by your content. Thank you for documenting and sharing.
    Something said in this video really struck me.
    You said that sometimes you get too many informations in your head and it kind of break your work flow when you get to the anvil.
    I realized that I haven't lit my forge in months because of that.
    So Im right now heading to my shop, get some steel hot and do little project and remember how how I like forging.
    Anyway, thank you for bringing that up. Keep creating!
    God bless.
