Workingwithiron presents Pure forging of a pair of bolt tongs from start to finish, if you enjoy long forging and blacksmithing videos then you will enjoy this, from a lovely forge in the surrey countryside with a great atmosphere that lends itself to some great filming potential.

Combining both sides of the tongs into one work piece and then splitting it into 2 is the most brillant thing I‘ve ever seen
So good to see you back mate.
This is one of my now favorite forging videos - love the design of these tongs and being able to watch them come together. Very well done!
great to see you back to making videos nobody does forging smoother
Blushing here, thanks for your kind words!
I know this comment is a couple years late, but these tongs are phenomenal. As a new 'smith (about one year under my belt) your videos on chisels, punches and drifts have been invaluable. They were clear, concise, and helpful from every perspective. You are such a great teacher. You should consider charging for online classes or have a beginner tool/project playlist.
Thanks for the kind words. Once I finish my current project I will be doing a lot more in the way of videos and courses. Probably in the new year sometime that will be. February or march maybe. There is a few playlists for tooling and such but not a lot at the moment.
It's nice to see a true blacksmith not a angle grinder or belt sander in sight awesome set of tongs mate I enjoy every minute of it
Chris Gale a grinder and paint
Make a man the smith that they ain’t
Perfection!! The fact that you're so meticulous and take the time to remove hammer marks, clean each step, align everything perfectly shows the level of professionalism!! Well done!!
So good to see you back
Great to be back!
Exactly how it is taught in Farrier's school. I went through school 37 years ago ( our reference/classroom books dated in 1959. To this day I still make my bolt and wolves this way... Old
As a blacksmith it's nice to venture into the forging ways of Farriers as there is a lot we can learn from them. A lot of great techniques they use which I'm loving.
Most probably do know there is a difference.... I get ask all the time if I am a "blacksmith" I smile, nod and say hopefully someday.
I've made a lot of tongs and have seen this style done before. This demonstration here is very good quality. Top notch... I will do a variation of this when I have time. Thanks for sharing your skill.
Thanks Glen, will be great to see your take on it with your setup. love your content so will be looking forward to it!
Nathan, I took a more in-depth look at your channel and like your work; unpretentious, solid craftsmanship and so I just subbed. At this point, we have a similar number of subs so maybe we should do some sort of mutually beneficial collaboration. Good luck in your work. Glen
@@gstongs Hiya Glen, I would love to collaborate with yourself, how we could do that I have no idea at the moment but if you have any suggestions or ideas i'm sure we could work it out.
Spot on, really great to see you are still making videos.
Cheers!
Very,very nice 👍
Thanks petr!
I'm so glad you put so little music in your vids. It's important to also hear what you're doing, the pitch of the ringing steel, the force of the impact of the hammer, it all matters. Really adds to an immersive experience.
Savage tongs dude, you've been missed around these parts, hope you've been well
Thanks dude, I've missed forging, not done any in so long as ripped my forearm muscle last year so been resting a lot. But all healed and back on it!
Great video
thanks Ali, no narration unfortunately as the mic wasn't clear enough picking up my voice over the fan noise, gonna try and source a clip on mic for the future.
No narration necessary! Your expertise and your art of your craft speak volumes. Sectacular hypnotizing video. Thank you!
Glad to see video from you Nathan. Thanks for the good camera angles!
Thank you!
Beautiful! No other words needed.
Thank you, for calming me down. Good job, on tongs also.
Wow, that is an insane forge!
I love these things!!!
Beautiful end result, incredible attention to detail!
Thank you for this video it is very nice. I am 14 and i forged this tongs, they are realy the best tongs ever.
Ok, You really know what you do! Thank you for that!
Very Nice! Thank you for showing this.
Beautiful set of tongs!

gorgeous tongs, and a beautifully filmed video. Thank you.
Thanks man! Means a lot!
I loved the video. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome set up
I've watched this a dozen times now Nathan and every time I pick up more detail and Every time I have to appaud you more. Super Work
Awsome work!
Thank you. This is a beautiful piece of art and I bet a useful one.
Excellent work, such a pleasure to watch craftsman keep skills alive!
Very nice set of tongs. Steve notts
SUPER WORKING. GOOD JOB.
Beautiful work, Your attention to detail is outstanding. I like the way you made both pieces identical and then brought the reins into alignment. I learned something today. Thank you for sharing.
That is a beast of a forge! Good deal👍
She is a beauty eh! Can't beat a side blast!
Отличная работа и результат!

You have a fantastic shop and you have a dream tool set...
Good job. Very good job!
Those tounges Mr Nathan are a work of art Sir, hope I can teach myself from your video how to replicate them for my own achivement. Thanks for sharing with us, Toby
The more I think you know what to do the less I think I know what I been doing.
Thanks your work is a art.
Thank you for showing me that's beautiful absolutely beautiful
I love it
Excellent forging.
Thank you!
Very nicely done Nath, good looking set of tongs. I like the 'Farrier' style offset that brings the reins into parallel alignment, always wondered why a lot of 'Blacksmiths' tongs don't have that. Really great video
Thanks Ian, they are so much better and stronger than conventional way of making them. I've gone over to this way of forging them from now on. A lot easier and quicker.
They also hang on a rack more easily that a lot of "blacksmith" style tongs...
Exactly that Matthew, no more catching my legs on the damn things!
Stunning. Will work harder, but I want to achieve this kind of clean forging.
Beautiful, attention to detail.
Thanks!
i wish you do more videos nathan and teach us more . love from france

That is a very cool blacksmith shop! It has one of the nicest, most spaceous coal forges I've ever seen and that is also one of my top 5 favorite anvils I have ever seen... it is a true monster of an anvil and I love it! Beautiful tongs, nice video!

As every tool should be, the tools make the art and the art makes the tools. Thanks for the kind words!
So glad to see a new video...I've watched the "Calm before the storm" video probably 50 times and st patiently waiting. Thanks for posting that btw, it's been my go to when I just need to slow down and see the world around me a little clearer. Must have been amazing working with Bex. Can't wait to see what all you have in store.
For that i thank you! I love that video but its not the blacksmith videos people have grown to like, but if someone like yourself enjoys it it makes it worthwhile! More of them to come soon the more i film. It was and still is amazing working with bex and the crew. We have some big plans for the future on youtube in the mix at the mo so you may see us working together soon.
Отличная работа! Аккуратные и изящные клещи получились!
большое тебе спасибо
Celebrimbor aprova essas tenazes..
awesome mn!
Really fine set of tongs, man, good job...
Absolutely beautiful work, been missing your videos.
Thanks Darrel, i have too. really enjoying getting back to it and getting this community back together!
Very nice!!! Always enjoy watching a true craftsman !‼ Just subbed!
Question for you, sir. I LOVE the look of your tongs and intend to make myself a couple pair like them. But are the points behind the pivot functional, or purely decorative?
it strengthens the transition point from hinge to rein...not strictly necessary but decoratively functional
Very nice work! Your tongs are a work of art.
Thank you!
