Flat Jaw Tongs 

This is one of the best forging tutorial videos I've seen. The comparison shots speaks volumes in showing the progression of your work! Thanks so much for sharing!

Others have several times used "clean" with regard to your work. I would say that your work and your shop are highly intentional, disciplined and organized. And you are a teacher-by-example. But we all agree -- Well done, Sir. Please keep these videos coming.

I am surprised that this channel hasn't blown up yet because your blacksmithing and videography are both absolutely beautiful. Keep it up 👏

Самый аккуратный кузнец на ютубе.! Молодец даже и непоймеш что это кузня ,чистота и порядок как в больнице.

Thanks for sharing your art. Greetings from Argentina

Perfect! Великолепно! You are big Master!

Just so precise and tidy.

Nice "Story board" of the steps. The tooling you make sure makes for repeatable forging. Very well done John!

Your forge is cleaner than my house 😂😂.. what a great job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Самый аккуратный кузнец в мире' кузнец хирург так сказать 'аккуратнее не видел на просторах интернета.

Always such clean work from you.

Another ace video John! Thanks

That's some good and clean forging. Love your videos.

Very beautiful job. Hopefully you get great use out of them for many years to come my friend. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Forge on. God bless.

ละเอียด เข้าใจง่ายทุกขั้นตอน งานสวย , สะอาด ปรบมือให้นะครับ 🙂

comme toujours ,un très jolie travail .félicitation

Lovely ⚒⚒⚒

Mycket skickligt och proffsigt 👍😊

You are great.

Super nice tooling at 3:45 👌

I can't decide whether you're more machinist or blacksmith. Very nicely done in any event.

Brilliant

Amazingly clean work as always! I just made my first successful set of tongs (first attempt I broke the jaws off fussing with them). The challenge for me is drawing out the reins; by hand at the anvil tends to lead to ‘i’m tired and my arms hurt, thats good enough’. so not the straightest or smoothest, but functional. I’ll get there.

O senhor não sabe à alegria que nos trás sempre que é lançado um vídeo novo seu .

i do have a feeling you're controlling the pressure which the hammer of the machine hits as you adjust it by the pedal you use for it to hammer the iron/steel into shape it's interresting atleast to see someone who knows smithing so i could learn but doing it is abit different than actually using the tools but knowing how todo so is the first steps to properly use tools i'd say

Dumb question: Doesn't it damage the powerhammer when it hits those cold guides? (not the form tools but the depth stop like at 3:43)

nice video; thanks. At about 5:50 it shows your fly press in the background.....I just ordered a #5 and want to get going on the stand for it before it arrives. Wondering if you would be willing to share specs on yours and any info otherwise would be much appreciated..... thanks!

Great video! Didn't you have a sand-based anvil stand at one point?

Is your anvil a Peddinghaus 165#?

Why does the rivet not fix firmly? How to achieve a movable connection?

where do you get your paste wax from i can't seem to find any, where i live
