Making the things to make the things to make the things. Having recently taken up leatherworking, I need a riveting hammer. Of course I could just buy one, but where would the fun be in that? Craft is so much more about the process than the product. So today we are going to warm up the anvil, light up the forge, and turn some 4140 tool steel into a leather working hammer. We'll forge the hammer, we'll heat treat the steel, polish the faces, and then we'll hang the hammer head on a hand carved oak handle.

MORE ABOUT ME
I'm Anne of All Trades. In NASHVILLE, I have a woodworking, blacksmithing and fabrication shop, a selection of furry friends, and an organic farm. Whether you've got the knowledge, tools, time or space to do the things you've always wanted to do, everything is "figureoutable."
I became "Anne of All Trades" out of necessity. With no background in farming or making things, I wanted to learn to raise my own food, fix things when they break and build the things I need.
8 years ago I got my first pet, planted my first seed and picked up my first tool.
My goal is to learn and share traditional techniques and skills while showing my peers how to get from where they are to where they want to go, how to do the things they are passionate about, and what can be done TODAY to engage their own community and grow deep roots.
Whether it's carving spoons, making my own hand tools, restoring my antique truck or growing heirloom tomatoes, the farm and workshop definitely keep me busy and support - whether financially through Patreon, through shopping my affiliate links, through buying merchandise, plans or project videos, or even just liking, commenting, and sharing my content with others helps me GREATLY to keep producing quality content to share.

Hey Annie. Been a while. Been goin through some things. Happy to be back. An as a 15yr blacksmith and 3 yr chainsaw carver, I never thought you could make me prouder. I’m getting caught up on all you’ve been up too, and I’m beside myself happy and proud. I’ve been in a dark spot for a while now. You really are proving that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Oh, an don’t bend your wrist so much when you strike. You’ll end up like me and the other ferries.😂
❤from the north!
As a fellow adhd’er I love it spending more time on the details of something else to make the current job “ easier “ happens to me every day but it’s always a learning experience. Keep up the awesome work.
Takes one to know one ;) Thanks for the support my friend!
My work hates me for it hahaha. But it keeps me enjoying the work.
@@Syllibethal THIS. Keeps me engaged, motivate, growing, and innovating. A lot of the time they are like eh, why? Some of the time the realize the value and how it saves effort and or time.
Stumbled on to your video. Great stuff you speak like my brain. I was diagnosed with add a few years ago. And my doctor recommended finding an outlet for my creative. When i was a younger man i was alwas making thing in the garage wood shop. And loved acting. I can proudle say 2 years later 2 plays "hamlet and Mother Courage and her children" incase anyone was wondering. And several knives and forge made jewelry later. And i fell more centered and fulfilled than i have in the last 20 years. Great stuff y i your sharing. Keep on Making.
Though my visit was short, we sure packed a lot of fun into it!!!
Building tools is never ending but it is one of my favorite things to do. I would love to have your power press! Good job.
I love how you are focused while still smiling ;)
Before I even watch this after watching the intro - Anne, you give me hope and shine a little light inside me every time I watch one of your videos. Your ethos, that sort of thinking/believe is SO lacking in the world today, it's all about the profit and how much we can make, as fast as we can make it and as cheaply. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Oh and that's a sweet looking bag you've got there in the making, can't wait to see how it turns out.
Thank you so much for the kind words. It means a lot to know my little videos are making an impact.
@@AnneofAllTrades Your joy while "working" is palpable :)
Lynx G Well said
Career blacksmith here (27 years smithing)... Absolutely NEVER quench in motor oil...first its sloooow slower than an air quench ..second contrary to popular myth it doesn't add any carbon to the steel at all ... Third its extremely toxic... 4140 is a medium speed quenching steel ideally it should be quenched in a 11-14 second oil (for DIY'ERS use peanut or canola oil pre heated to 130 degrees) in thick cross sections water can be used but quenching 4140 hammer heads in water can cause cracking in the thin steel cheeks around the eye
All good to know! The motor oil, water (and quench can/bucket) were very much a “use what you’ve got on hand at this exact moment” solution as I’m still getting my shop set back up after moving across the country, but I’m waiting on parts for my ammo can peanut oil heater as we speak :)
@@AnneofAllTrades for small parts you can use a cheap 1 gallon paint can preheated with a piece of mild you heated in the forge ...personally i just use a 5 gallon bucket ...if you plan on working a wide range of steels definitely invest in engineered quenching oils they dont break down like food oils and will match the speed of quench you need for the alloy you are working
@@jessebond4221 All great tips, I appreciate you taking the time!
@@AnneofAllTrades happy to help
What is cooler than making your own tools and woodworking and spoon carving?! Not much. This is awesome! 😎
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for taking the time!
Hats off to Steve for being a man in the know!!
Steve looks like he's very skeptical of this whole TH-cam nonsense...
Always fun to watch someone enjoying what they are doing.
Please do more of those videos, they’re very interesting and enjoyable!
🎵🎶 If I had a Hammer.....
....it's store bought.
I don't have a forge or an anvil.
That said I totally enjoyed this episode watching you make one. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Yes Anne I am super excited to see a new video even happyer that's it is a blacksmithing video. Very nice hammer. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Can't wait to see more blacksmithing videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend Anne . Forge on. Farm on. Keep Building. Keep growing. Keep making. God bless.
You are absolutely amazing!!!
Another home run!! Loved this one as I have wanted to get serious about blacksmithing for some time. Beautiful little hammer. I’m on the same thought pass, why not learn to build your own tools, it might turn out well ( or really well) and you will have learned something. Thanks so much for this one. Love your passive stance against smoking!
Looks like that was a lot of fun. Thumbs up and thanks for posting!
It was! Thanks for watching!
So much fun to watch! Great job!
Anne, always fascinating to see you share your interests and talents. Thank you!
You are so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoy it!
Good luck and creative inspiration!
Anne, You're Awesome Love Watching All You Do
Great video Anne.
Well done Anne, such a happy smiley human being. All the best on your journey through life :)
Love your passion! You are a phenomenal educator; teaching teachers to teach.
-CY Castor
Thank you! Big compliment!
This was fun to watch! Can’t wait to try forging one day
for those that havent seen a hammer head seated that way it can actually cut the edges off an oversized handle! cool vid Anne
Awesome to see you back in the forge, Anne! We'll have to get you back on The ForgeCast again some time!
Well heck yes, let’s do it! Happy to anytime!
Yet another video where Anne unintentionally makes me realize how much I suck!
Anne i Love this channel also i was watching your vid and realized when you showed your hammer and other tools at the end i had left an axe head sitting in vinegar for 4 days lol took it out washed it with warm water and baking soda and dried it and oiled it up wrapped in a t-shirt
Oh my!! What a Trip..... thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Rad af! Great video thanks!
Nice job it nice to see you enjoying your work. Just watching with little tabby girl, work fascinates her she can watch people do it for hours. Keep the joy in what you do and enjoy the holidays.
Thank you David! Happy holidays!
Yes im waiting on the bag project too'
👍🐯👍, forge thick and grind thin.
Love the comment about, “If you give a mouse a cookie!” I am exactly the same way and every single project gives birth to lots of other little projects and opportunities to obsess about the tools, process, or skills I have yet to fully develop. It’s what makes time in the shop as much an adventure as it is a hobby, meditation,
Exactly!! I knew I wasn't alone in that!
Anne you are such and awesome person. And your so talented . I like watching your videos. I always been fascinated by wood working and black smithing . I like watching forge in fire . And leather work too. I made my own leather key chain . Took a leather work shop class and made my own key chain . Hope you have a wonderful day today.
Thanks so much for the encouragement, and you sound like you get distracted in a good way just like me!
Good job.
Next up, forged in fire!
haha I've got a ways to go yet there
Nice hammer! Always great videos!!
Thank you! Glad you like them!
That's so awesome. I have been watching Forged in Fire and although I'm not into knives I'd love to forge a hammer or some other cool stuff. I have an antique hand crank coal forge I'd like to restore and try some rudimentary forging sometime.
You always have a excellent video
I'm not pleased with myself, my memory problems & TH-cam's algorithms has robbed me of many of your vids.
All is not lost though, this immensely enjoyable vid has perked me up & I'll relish catching up on past episodes.
Loves from Australia. ❤🇦🇺
Great video,good to see you,I missed your couple of videos
Welcome back! More to come soon, too!
Oh so many rabbit holes to fall down... I feel your pain here :D
Good job!
Will there be a video on how you are making the tote, Anne? From the little footage you've shown it looks awesome!
Anne great hammer
Anne, your eyes look so big when you wear your safety glasses. Nice work on the hammer. You have the same problem I do-I get distracted by making the tools for my projects and end up with a lot of tools and have forgotten or not got to the project before starting again. You can't ever have enough tools but sooner or later you just have to get to the project. Take care, stay well and holiday blessings to you and the family.
Yes-all true. It seems like you first posted a few years ago, not EIGHT!!!
What a journey!
God Bless
Ha! Well I've only been posting on TH-cam since 2018. Instagram started in 2012.
@@AnneofAllTrades Whew! The time machine hick-cupped again!
so cool
Way cool
Let’s be honest, I’m awesome and still do awesome stuff. Thanks for this episode!
cool!
Ya, guys, cool!
I'll be using this video to help folks understand how I think. plus now I need to make a hammer.
There you go! If you want another video that explains the learning process a bit more, check this one out: th-cam.com/video/LRz9tBw6DWE/w-d-xo.html
@@AnneofAllTrades 1) thank you 2) i've watched that several times. 3) the woodworking rabbit hole I'll probably fall down is felling, milling, and drying. 4) planting?
This is hilarious in parts, but good for you for doing this, queen.
Thank you, I think ;)
@@AnneofAllTrades 😋
Good job bro. 🙋♂️
Thanks ✌
Love the way your brain thinks because I also thunk the same way. Do you ever look at something and say, "Hhhmmm, I can make that."
Kool!
Your Dad looking for his motor oil: 😬😅
CHEERS!
Cheers!
Steve looks like the elder brother who loves his sister and wants to help her out but is totally baffled by how bubbly she is and finds this whole TH-cam nonsense very weird. "Are you sure you want to film this? I mean, ok, let's do it, but do you mind if I walk out of the shot at random times?" It's adorable!
Steve is a star! ironically he watches more youtube than I do, he always tells me about the best videos :)
@@AnneofAllTrades Haha, I would never have guessed. He seems great!
First love the video’s
I love you so much and what you stand for (a powerful, independent woman) that I based on you the main character of the book that I've been writing. Betcha no one told you that before, eh? XD
Those glasses are trippy.
I tend to trip a lot when wearing them...
To make a hammer you must have a hammer.....i question can you forge a hammer using a stone hammer. Quartz maybe....since it has a hardness of 7.....but the crystalyn structure may make it too brittle
Tobacco is the incense of labor.
hahaha
Damn right! Especially a well blended pipe tobacco ...never will you experience a purer taste than lighting your pipe with a piece of glowing steel fresh out the forge... I like a 50/50 mix of captain black and middleton's cherry
Wellll welll well
I want to come hang out with you for a couple days..you are awesome..
haha most of my friends have learned the lesson that if they come to visit they get put to WORK
@@AnneofAllTrades I'm ready. I know basics of a lot of things. My banking job maybe putting me out after 20+ yrs. Need to find alternative things to do.
Anne, you are my muse... New comer to middle TN. I would love for my son and I to come take a class. Where are you located?
Welcome! I am quite ways out from being set up to offer classes again, but stay tuned!
that thing at 9:48 seems so counter-intuitive!

I LOVE YOUR HAMMER
HAVE YOU FORGED DAMASSCUS STEEL KNIVES?
HOW ABOUT A BLACK POWDER MUSKET.(YOU CAN BUY A KIT THAT'S NOT PUT TOGETHER AND MAKE IT YOUR OWN)
THE STOCK CAN BE REMADE OUT OF WHATEVER HARD WOOD.( WALNUT IS BEAUTIFUL AND LONG WEARING)
JUST JOKING KIND OF...
BUT IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, BUILDING AN OLD BLACK POWDER MUSKET, WOULD ENCOMPASS A LOT OF THE ASPECTS OF YOUR CRAFTSMANSHIP.
IT'S A THOUGHT...IT MAY GET YOU BANNED FROM TH-cam THOUGH..
I WISHED THAT I HAD THE TOOLS AND KNOWLEDGE TO USE SUCH .
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES

@@AnneofAllTrades THANK YOU YOUNG LADY
JFC dude why are you yelling?
When your bread-making hobby has you considering growing wheat . . . don't. Don't grow wheat.
Haha Joel Salatin says the same thing
