Applying heat to a piece of metal to create new tools and objects goes all the way back to Greek and Roman mythology.

Dave Canterbury walks you through the equipment you need, raw materials, the types of forges and anvils, hammers and other tools, and basic techniques like bending, drawing down, cutting, upsetting, punching and drifting, forge welding, annealing, and more.
