Daniel Tokar , Blacksmith at the Willow Forge, shows and names some sheetmetal stakes. A few of them can be seen in use in the series of coppersmithing videos like • 18 Making a copper kettle www.patreon.co...
Sure glad this is still up! I suddenly need to learn about what stake to use for specific parts of a project I probably shouldn't have started, and I know lots more about them than I did 8 minutes ago. Thanks, sir!
Thanks for your continued help! Going to have to forge a T stake, but my rule is that any project that requires me to fab up new tools is a good project.@@danieltokar1000
What a magnificent source of information!! As I mentioned on other channels, I am having to start forging out of necessity. Building up a homestead from scratch requires much in terms of infrastructure. Thank you for this wealth of information.
