This book offers a photographic introduction to modern blacksmithing practices, guiding novices and enthusiasts through the trade from the ground up. It covers the tools and heating methods involved, from traditional coal-fired forges to electric induction, and demonstrates core techniques including upsetting, collaring, twisting, fullering, and swaging. Structured like a course, it moves from safety, equipment, and workshop setup through to seven complete step-by-step projects, showing the huge range of items a blacksmith can produce, from door fittings and railings to shovels and tools, all illustrated with 180 colour photos throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWritten by Daniel Johnson, an artist blacksmith who takes on ironwork commissions and teaches blacksmithing courses through his company, Forgeworks, based in south Norfolk, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDetails:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor: Daniel Johnson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Hardback, 224 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: Amber Books\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9781838863135\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for: Beginners, hobbyist blacksmiths, and anyone interested in traditional metalworking crafts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PERIBO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41372322365504,"sku":"BOOK-9781838863135","price":69.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/7661\/0368\/files\/9781838863135-1-600x781.jpg?v=1789541430","url":"https:\/\/ausmakersupplies.com.au\/products\/blacksmithing-a-guide-to-practical-metalworking-tools-and-techniques","provider":"Aus Maker Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
