Magister Armorum

Medieval forge, progress.

I'm finally making some solid progress on the forge I designed this spring. Currently I'm working on the bellows, and today I'm more specifically working on the valve system. The smaller valve at the mouth of the bellow will prevent air to be sucked from the fire pot and also stop any sparks from entering the bellow itself and damaging it. The design of the bellows is taken directly from the "De Re Metallica" by Georgius Agricola, written in the XVIth century. http://www.gutenberg.org/files/38015/38015-h/38015-h.htm

Forging during this era was a little bit hard, believe man. I think that there are people who enjoy forging with that style, but it is just weird. The technology back in this era was just way too weak. I also forge, but I prefer forging with better tools. There is a certain style that can only be done during that era, but still, I have no idea why it is good. I like to forge with the best tools possible.
