Metal is an unusually satisfying medium for many artists, but working in metal requires a considerable amount of specialized knowledge and practical skill. This book teaches those skills. It makes a fine textbook for apprentice metalworking artists, presenting a basic overview of the science of metallurgy, then discussing needed tools, safety equipment, and metalworking methods. Detailed chapters cover such techniques as welding, shaping, and cutting metals as a means of fashioning art objects and practical items. A variety of beautiful and useful objects are shown as they are being made in a series of step-by-step photos. Objects include weather vanes, wrought-iron decorative fixtures for inside and outside the home, trays, tables, and imaginative sculptures. Students are instructed in how to work with iron, aluminum, copper, zinc, and several other metals. The book is filled with hundreds of color illustrations.

Book Description
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.

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.
