Blacksmithing- Making a cat figurine (from angle iron) 

Hi Torbjörn. I am Elizaveta Polikashina. I accidentally saw your video and I want to say that I am very pleased to see my name in the description of the video. The cat turned out great!

There is nothing not to love about this video. Great tool making, new kittens that seem right at home plus a great project that brings a smile to a childs face. Thank you for sharing.

The skill in making the tail from a piece of angle was awesome .The delight in your daughters face was fabulous.

I'm allergic to cats so this one would be perfect for me !!!! adorable blacksmith in training too !!! proud dad moment :)

Those things are filled with sentiment, and memories. Everyone will remember the time, the kittens, and the happiness that is now and will be with them. That piece of art will go with your child forever, and they will always remember you and the love you had for them....I admire your skill, commitment, and thoughtfulness. It made me shed a tear. We need more of this in today's world! Bless you.

That's the cutest steel cat I've ever seen...

Those little kittens are literally the cutest things I've seen in a while!

Nice cat. Nice kittens. And it's always good to see a craftsman take on an apprentice.

I love your attention to detail...the tail bend, the flat spot below the cat nose, matching the finish, the precision of the stamp...all reasons why I watch every one of your videos. Nice to see your kids getting an intro to your craft.

Those Kittens just hit the lotto, Long happy lives for those two.

Ok, it's a video with Torbjörn's blacksmithing AND kittens, what could go wrong? Instalike for sure 😻😻

Ah thank you Torborn! This is the kind of video that I can just relax and watch without all the craziness of my country.

Not for the first time I am reminded that blacksmithing, of all the crafts, is a form of magic. Thank you.

An artist and a gentleman.

It's good to get the young ones into the shop. My apprentice is my 6 year old granddaughter. She likes to sweep the floor, paint stuff, and hit things with a hammer. Frequently my fingers. Great work, TA.

I love people that care about animals.

wow another perfect piece of art, and what nice kittens, and a proud father

I don't know when my heart melted the most, getting the kittens, them playing, the hot in your kids' faces, your daughter helping, you giving the steel cat to her... it was all adorable, thank you for sharing this with us!

Absolutely one of the best video you' ve ever done ! I would call it " emotional blacksmithing ".All my esteem !

Very nice project. Great eye punch and wonderful happy little girl after a surprise present from her father. Wonderful to watch.

When I read the title I couldn't even imagine how that would go. It turned out awesome ! I love cats ;-)

It warms my heart to see your children involved in your projects.

Today we get two projects in one! That's a really nice stamp. The cat is great. I love the family touches you put into your videos. Your children are adorable. You could be training up the next great blacksmith/artist there.

Theres no greater joy than seeing your children smile and there's no doubt yours loved that cat. Good job.

The kiddo’s were such a great addition to this video. Thanks for posting. This is the first of yours I’ve seen. I’m impressed not only by the quality editing and content, but by the wholesome feeling that makes me want to smile after watching it. Keep up the good work!

I'm Sorry but is your life as peaceful as shown in your videos. Watching you work just puts a calmness over me. you make such beautiful pieces no mater how simple or complex they are. then seeing you out in the yard or canning and any of the other wonderful things you do is so nice and calming. thank you for sharing.

legit my favourite videos on youtube. always excited when these get uploaded

Very good to see your daughter getting involved in blacksmithing. We need to see more ladies doing blacksmithing. Keep encouraging her. 👍

That little angle iron cat is the "cat's meow"...very cute. Gotta make one for a friend who has cats.

we enjoyed your presentation . that piece could be displayed in a museum .

Как приятно смотреть когда отец учит своё дитя , он вырастит и всю жизнь будет рад чему его научил папа ... счастья вам.👍👍👍👍👍спасибо за вашу работу .

What a lovely ornament and workmanship. I love the way you involve your children.

- Папа, хотим котят. - сказали дети. - Нет проблем! - сказал отец, взял кусок железа, несколько молотков - и пошел в кузницу. :)

Great to see a Thunderbear cub in action!!

Absolutely amazing. The kittens are adorable. Top video once again!

I got completely sucked in by the procedure, the measured pace, the kiddos and kitties! Thank you! Beautiful.

"Everybody wants to be a cat, Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at!" Nicest cat eye punch I ever saw! ;-)

Every blister, every ache, every lesson from failure, every single hammer blow so profoundly worth those few seconds of utter joy from your daughters reaction and smile. A lesson that the world would do well to relearn. Thank you for the smile Torbjörn.

Who needs a power hammer with a help like that? :-D

I said this before on another video but letting your kid be apart of your craft is awesome I’m sure he will remember it forever.

)))) Вы Гений мастер ..ваши котики самые лучшие

Your videos are an example to all RU-vidrs- beautiful camerawork to show exactly what you are doing, no unnecessary commentary and no intrusive 'music' ! You are also a fine blacksmith, with an artistic side.

She will be pleased to see herself in fifty years and remember those emotions ..

WOW! Watching you work metal is like watching a master fly tier tie size 18 dry flies with a magnifying glass...blows me away!

7:38 Awww how cute are those kittens ? ? :) Oh that's right, fantastic skills you have Torbjorn, another great video

Not only are you a master, but a good family man!

He's very cute! The kitty, I mean. But Torbjorn isn't so bad either 😉 haha

I am so pleased to see this video, not only because of your excellent work, but because your child was helping you in the smithy. My fondest memories of my father are of the hours and hours we spent in his workshop - almost always in silence. Either I helped him with his projects or we worked together on separate projects. He taught me so many skills. I cherish those memories now that he is gone, and to this day I love watching videos of RU-vid makers - probably because of those hours I spent with my dad. Thank you so very much.

I love cats, and that figurine is the cat's meow.

Watching a 18 minutes cat video to the end ! What a life ! Cats and kids at home, all the time to enjoy for yourself, all the blacksmithing work will be done by the children and the cats get the food from the gras field ! Everything works fine !

Your children would be proud on their Dad.

Вам не сложно переводить мои комментарии? Как хорошо что сын умеет держать молот. Котята отличные, в России такие же, с похожим поведением. Вероятно кошки везде одинаковые. Железный котёнок выглядит здорово. Вот только сделайте вертикальные зрачки в его глазах.

bualá ,, as if by magic. Fantastic as always. Cats don't know how lucky you are ...

Добрый день! Змечательное исполнение! У вас есть способность к творчеству!

Beautiful art you made. Thanks for the upload as I enjoyed the process and the result.

If I were 65 years younger, I'd ask you to adopt me. ☺

That was Purrrrrfect!!!! Great video! Lovely seeing the kid involved! Thank you T...

Man, just to warn you... Make or buy a sisal scratching pole before the cats find the sofa.

Your videos with your children always make me smile!

it's incredible how much dedication and work is put into just creating a press for the eyes.

Glad to see the Åhman apprenticeship program is underway!

子供たちの愛らしさ、猫のかわいらしさ、確かな技術に裏打ちされた力強い鍛冶作業、持ち味の質素で端正、かつ繊細な作品と、スウェーデンの美しい風景が渾然一体となった素晴らしい映像だと思います。

Oh My Gosh that is so adorable! I love how he had his daughter help him. That is something that she will always have and cherish because it is form her dad and she helped make it.

It’s so nice to see the kids getting into forging. 👍👍⚒🔥

Not sure how the algorithm brought me your channel, but I enjoyed watching. I also liked that your daughter helped with the creation.

Your videos always make the world a better place. Best form of recycling ever! Also nice to see the family involved. Gives them perspective and skills very few people will ever enjoy.

Certain to become an heirloom. I can imagine your daughter telling her children about it one day. Thank you once again for the inspiring project; now off to my forge!

Excellent craftsmanship, even better fatherhood!

I saw most of your amazing job, but this clip you did an outstanding piece and don’t forget to thank little angel for helping you. God bless you all

Kids and kittens...Both delightful to watch! An Owl is also possible in the same manner.

You are master of steel. Great to see your work.

I really like that you clean the scale off instead of hammering it in to the peice like everyone else

Awesome work and technique belying the skill involved. The memories we make with our children last a lifetime in both our and our children's memories.

Another masterpiece from the wisdom of the simple. Greetings from Monterrey, NL, Mexico ...

Es ist erstaunlich das ein solches Video mehr Unterhaltungswert hat wie das abendliche Fernsehprogramm 👍

Great work torb her smile said it all ...

The fact that you used the oxidize metal is briliant as it gave the whole piece a unique texture.

Best striker in training! And some very cool kitties. The metal one turned out excellent. 👍

That’s awesome to have a good assistant. Well done!

The eye punch was crafted with perfection. Thanks for showing that technique.

I am thoroughly impressed......I kept thinking in the beginning, "I don't know what he is making, but that isn't a piece of angle iron", and later thinking, "He makes this project look too easy". Thank you for the excellent video, for there is something great about watching an expert working with superior skill.

That was the most touching and special video I have seen and still involved blacksmithing. You sir are a great dad and I hope you're children always remember what a great father they have. God bless

I loved the intermission with the cats playing!

Beautiful kittens, the kids seem pretty pleased with them too. A nice simple, yet elegant piece, cat people everywhere would probably like one.

Just the perfect combination of cuteness and inspiration I needed to start this day! Thank you!

I love that there is only the tools sound, no background music, no talking, just, tools sound. Very nice pice, 🐱 my respect for your knowledge, years of working ⚒🙂👍

Your striker showed some impressive skill. A great teacher and Smith. Glad you showed the safety precautions with hearing protection. Excellent job.

A cool little blacksmith, cute cats and great works!

Came here for blacksmithing and got adorable kittens. Amazing video.

This reminds me of when my dad brought me on sight with him when I was about the same age. I'm pretty sure this is the sort of thing that inspires younger generations even when they don't know it. Now I'm a Civil Engineer finishing University.

Very nice. Four of them would make grand bookends.

Gorgeous work. Making the punch for the eyes was simply fantastic.

This is an art, not a craft. Bravo!

This wonderful video brought such a joy to my wife and me this evening, we want to thank you very sincerely. This video is one of the most delightful impressions we have had in years.

Excellent blacksmithing work, well done.

That is one of the most beautiful vids I have seen. So loving that you share it with your child. What a beautiful gift.

What a lovely video, a lovely piece, and lovely children/father moments. Such artistry and love. Thank you 🙏

Outstanding hammer control from your young striker

I could never imagine something so beautiful can be made out of angle iron. Outstanding. Greetins from Argentina

Blacksmiths and dotes on cats! What could be better?!? Great work.
