What was with adding water to the charcoal am I missing something?
yep, the charcoal was at the back and the watering was done at the front, before putting the charcoal in and lighting it...the forge floor is made of fine charcoal and is well-watered before lighting to keep it from burning up...here's an article with plenty of inside info on swordsmith forges if you would like to research further: islandblacksmith.ca/2017/01/building-traditional-swordsmith-forge/
Crossed Heart Forge - islandblacksmith good day sir. I was wondering if you could demonstrate the less commonly used lacquered wisteria cord wrapping. I have found research on it has been difficult, and procuring the right materials is tough as well. Despite this maybe in the future you could showcase it.
Bamboo wrap*
i don't have any wisteria either but i would like to try it sometime ^_____^ ...if you find some good information email it my way!
Forging in the rain is so relaxing. Like the touchmark as well.
When will you make a full video of forging sword?
our neighbors have two alpacas
How lovely, great job on the new forge!
much appreciated, it is a natural and rustic space but it feels very much like the right place for my work!
Congratulations Mr. Dave for your newly made charcoal forge🔪🔪🔨🔨
Awesome. And really good videography my friend !
Why wet your charcoal like that?
You wet the charcoal fines at the bottom of the forge to prevent it from burning up too quickly while working.
lovely workshop you have there bro..
Kajiba island it's in Japan? Beautiful place. Very happy to find your channel.
Crossed Heart forge is based on Vancouver Island BC, Kajiba basically means Blacksmith's workshop.
@@samnorman4545 thanx for the information
Nice
the new shop is amazing!
I think that alone would make for a good video, just showing us around it.
welcome back to the forge :D
....wish I could say the same, currently working on my togi-dai and other prep work.
i am doing a lot of that type work these days too...one day at a time!
@@islandblacksmith hopefully the prep work will lay the foundations of future projects for years to come.
