Dave, Thank you so much for posting this.   We have a lot of beginners as well as experienced smiths...but we all could use lessons no matter how far we are along.   Thanks again!!!! Can't wait to see the next in the series.

Really like the idea of making an s hook as a warm up! Keep our basic skills tuned..
