I very much like the way you shot this one , I have no problem with you explaining what you’re doing and why ,as an aspiring blacksmith I appreciate it but this one just got downs to the nuts and bolts of it so to speak and I liked it , keep up the good work sir, stay safe and thank you for what you do.

Such a pleaser to just watch you work John . Thank you . :)

31 min video very well squeezed into 13 min video. Always a pleasure to watch hot metal turn into beautiful and useful decorative artpiece. Bell hanger look cool👍👍🔥🔥🔥

[@BlackBearForgeII]

It sometimes surprises me how much can be cut out and still show the whole process. Which did you prefer?

[@gurvinderkau1e5w18]

@@BlackBearForgeII I love both depends on time in my hand. Shorter one is obviously more interesting and exciting👍👍🔥🔥🔥

[@AnonYmous-ii4tc]

Masterful work. The ease, speed and precision with which you made the hanger link is amazing.
Now I’m going to have to watch the long version too. I had to see the difference in your videos. Thank you for putting this together.
