Description
You see here a fire been feed with air. Look on your left no the other left and you see a hand. That hand just turned the wooden handle you see to blow air into the coals to get it super hot to make the metal glow red. The coal they use is not what the old timers used. it a coal that burns clean so the smoke will not give the blacksmith black lungs. If you use the type coals you have to ware a mask. I seen that at a diff place. The one that used the old type coal say it for speacil type of blacksmithing. I know not too much of this trade. Althought I love to watch them do it. this be the last photos of the blacksmiths then move on to other stuff.
I was at this place for about 3 hours did not get too many photos for I did not feel good. Guess the body was catching up for i been going a lot . My dad in back home for now. my sister is there to watch him for now and my brother will be comeing in from Colorada to help then. Guess I be there for the week ends?

Hey, pop a grill on top and you can fast-barbeque yourself some hamburgers, hot dogs, and/or steaks, Jock! Really cool capture of the super hot flame, coals, and blacksmith accoutrements.

We just replaced our water heater. Thankfully we knew a young man who is training to be a plumber and he did it for us. I like this shot of the fire. Looks to be really hot!

Great pov for this one Jocko, still no face of the Blacksmith though, you can tell by the hand that it is a lady. Strange that she is making the fire hot enough to melt the iron, yet the base is made of iron. #;0) Excellent capture and thanks for the information. Bravo!!!!!
