Interested in blacksmithing and Historical Re-enactment

[alboyle]

Hi!
I've made a few things in my home built shops, over the years. It seems that just when I get a smithy the way I like it, divorce breaks up my happy forge life. Sigh
I saw power hammer plans on Pinterest, and came to check out the site.

Hi alboyle - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Do you see any other ideas on here that you might consider building?

Hi alboyle,

Welcome!

Ah, remarriage - the triumph of optimism over experience! And a happy Valentine's Day to all…

Hope you get your current smithy just how you want it. What sort of homemade tools have you made along the way?

BTW, which period are you re-enacting?
