    I'm a blacksmith and machinist myself and must say they are probably the nicest looking sledgehammers I've ever seen to this day.
    Far to beautiful to be abused in a workshop. :)

    That's awesome how you have the link to your tools/products that you used in the video! I've never seen that before! Beautiful work! I restored an old mini crosspeen hammer about two years ago. I was able to get a mirror finish on the striking face by using my belt sander, hand sanding (progressive grits) and finished with my buffer. 😊

    Glad your are back! Definitely you nailed it with this new style of video editing. Besides this piece of art and all of the positive comments that you are receiving (and I agree with them), I have to say thank you! The passionate you are on this is really inspiring. Recently I was talking with a local maker (greetings from Argentina), and randomly you name was on the chat, and we both agreed that your videos were our kick start for us to start spending much time on the making. Nowadays it is a hobby, but who knows... it's just matter of founding ourselves as you mentioned.
    Keep doing that great! and thank you again. I will be making some fabrications based on your designs, hope you don't bother, instead, consider it as some kind of tribute.
