Content & Features: Farm Blacksmithing, first published in 1901, introduces essential forge operations such as forming, scarf welding, tempering, and basic tool- and hardware-making for the self-reliant farm shop, including projects like hooks, chains, rings, clevises, and homemade blacksmithing tools, along with brief sections on rope splicing and saw sharpening to round out core skills. Forging, first published in 1918, provides a structured introduction to forging practice with step-by-step coverage of bending, splitting, angle welding, drawing out, upsetting, punching, and finishing operations, plus examples such as hooks and eyes, chain fittings, crankshafts, weldless rings, ladles, trowels, and more. Together these compact manuals bridge traditional blacksmith shop techniques and more advanced forging methods, serving as practical references for contemporary hobby smiths, metalworkers, and readers interested in the craft history of ironwork.
