Last month Stephen came to his third weekend Blacksmithing. On it he learned how to fireweld. Firewelding is welding steel/iron together using a Forge, hammer and anvil. Without electricity. Its considered one of the hardest skills in Blacksmithing and takes some practice to master. Stephen had it sussed in no time heres two examples of what he made using the skill. #fireweld #forgeweld #blacksmith #artistblacksmith #irishblacksmith #hotmilkforge #glensofantrim #blacksmithjoinery #weekendwarrior (at Hot Milk Forge) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9l01FzhI6O/?igshid=yietr6wgd1nz

I’m using the bick I posted yesterday to forge weld and form the sockets on these chisels. I’d have to say I’m getting mixed results so far. I’m able to forge weld maybe 60-70% of the socket closed but I’m having lots of trouble where the socket gets thinner. I just can’t seem to get it to weld stick properly in that area. For these in the photo I electric welded the problem areas then worked them round. I’m going to keep trying until I can get 100% forge welded.

Last night's #forged Kara class in Worcester was a pleasure to teach! There was steel, there was fire, and the students brought delicious vegetarian food that we ate afterwards! :) #make #blacksmith #blacksmithing #teacher #yoga #vegetarian #forgeweld #metalwork

I’m setting the chisels aside for awhile and moving on to this door pull. These were all over England when I visited last month. I photo documented lots of these so I thought it would be a good project to try. I’m also trying to build up the center mass by forge welding a collar on the bar. Normally I would use thicker material and draw out either end but just for the experience I thought this collar method was worth a try. It seems to have worked well so far. #javosironworks #blacksmith #anvil #forge #forgeweld #door #pull #doorpull #tools #workshop #hot #steel #handmade (at North Saint Paul, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0GZRo_gKg6/?igshid=b4yhvzikmaih

First attempt at a key. 1/2” bar that I cut, bent into the ring and forged welded it back together. The weld isn’t quite smooth enough for my liking so I’ll give this another try today but other than that I like the general shape of it. #javosironworks #key #lock #forge #forgeweld #steel #vise #blacksmith #blacksmithing #tools #workshop #madeinminnesota (at North Saint Paul, Minnesota) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1d1v7FAgBE/?igshid=er9o4i5sa41z
