Blacksmithing for Beginners - Forging Lesson #1: drawing/drawing out.

Hi everyone, in this episode I am teaching you the most basic of forging techniques: drawing. This is the bread and butter of the blacksmith so you have to practice it a lot to be efficient at it.
I hope you'll enjoy working along with me and exploring this awesome trade.

If you have any questions leave it the comment section.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for taking the time to teach your craft! The problem I had when trying to draw out the one inch flat bar was that bar kept bending and curving in different directions depending on what side I was hitting. I'm trying to bring 4 inches of material out to about 10 inches. Also I'm brand new to this lol. Thanks again!

I am neither a blacksmith nor do i plan on becoming one, but i still watched the whole thing

Would you impart more force onto the workpiece and net more work done if you did not impart those glancing hammer blows? But rather, drive the hammer straight
Yes, you can tilt the hammer face. But a glancing blow cant be as effective as a straight plane of travel.
