This vintage book contains a concise yet comprehensive guide to forging. Written in simple, plain language and profusely illustrated, this volume is highly recommended for students and novices with an interest in the intricacies of forging, welding, and manufacturing. "Forging - Instruction Paper" would make for a useful addition to collections of allied literature and is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: "Materials", "Equipment", "The Forge", "Hammers", "Sledges", "Anvils", "Tongs", "Fitting Tongs", "Set Hammers and Flatters", "Fullers", "Swage Blocks", "Other Tools", "Fuel", "Oxidizing and Reducing Fires", "Banking the Fire", "Stock", "Welding", "Sand and Borax", "Welding Compounds", "Fagot Weld", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on blacksmithing.
