That ceramic liner should make a good chimney lean the chimney each year.. On the fireplace at my former home I built a nice metal chimney cap. I got a bunch of scrap steel from the junkyard and welded it up. I put hardware cloth over the chimney to protect against ashes getting on the roof. It must have weighed 100#. I had a hell of a time moving it, so I could clean the chimney.
I a. Glad it is you toting all that heavy lumber instead of me! My days of doing that kind of stuff is behind me.
Experience has served you well. The last time you built this blacksmith shop it took much longer. This time was just over 15 minutes. Lol
Yet another morning, I'm found diving into one of your projects along with my coffee. Thank you for your time, its truly remarkable.
wondering if you ever watched the Dick Preonicke films of his life at Twin Lakes, Alaska. Lots of what you do remind me of him.
A gorgeous project.
What is the full size of this shop? Please and thank you.
Amazing
I like to see these compilations of the builds. Well done Kathy and of course the project is enjoyed as it moves forward. These compilations sometimes show things I missed earlier when watching.
Can't believe it only took three months. I understand the feeling when a project is done. I always feel a bit lost, like finishing a good book. Great job, and great red shirt.
What a satisfying sense of accomplishment you must have. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
What an awesome shop there eh! So much work in a short amount of time... thanks for sharing
I finally got to watch this. What an accomplishment and the history I learn from your videos makes me happy. Blessings to you both.
What part of Ontario are you located? I'm in Eastern Ontario and my ancestors were granted land after they worked on the Rideau Canal. I expect their homesteading experience was not all that different than what you show in your videos
im glad to see the wizard zedicus is enjoying his retirement
Bravo! Very well done! The only other site I've seen with the building of the billows for a forge is on the Townsends who do the 18th century life.
Thank you Kathleen for giving us a wonderful recap on the beautiful Forge. I sure enjoyed it.
Great idea Kathy and Peter, doing the start to finish video. Amazing how much time and work went into this Blacksmith shop, as well as all the other projects as well. Thank-you for all you videos. Keep your powder dry
well done peter and Kathy the forge is a success and a great series of UA-cam entertainment oddly a set of double lung bellows very old but still functional at 6 foot long made by W. Showell has come-up for sale not to far from where i live and I couldn't help but to think of The Woodland Escape forge
Kudos to Kathy on her idea for a start to finish video. Well done.
