Saved a lot of trouble on my end thank you so much for the last 2 videos

Thanks! I've been working through Brian Price's "Techniques of Medieval armor reproduction", but you can only learn so much from a book- Watching the procedures in action was very helpful.

Thanks for the tips.

Thanks for the great video's very helpful. I was wondering what is the name of the rough plannishing tool you use and can a person find it. I look forward to more blacksmithing video's .

I used the bottom of an old steel nitrogen bottle. A wooden stump with a 9 or 10 Centimeter wide and 4-5 Centimeter deep dish works really well.

What belt did you use for the polishing?

[@FlatFingerForge]

MysticMarbles sorry for the delayed response, I go from 80 to 600 in steps 80-120-220 etc. Finishing with a cotton bonnet and Emery.
