Blacksmithing : Hand Forging Door Knocker / Pull
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ธ.ค. 2023
- I am sharing the process of hand forging a rustic door knocker or door pull, using traditional methods of blacksmithing, side draft forge and stone coal. Really love its old time look and sound!
Many thanks to everyone voted for the best time length of our videos! As a result, this video is around 15 min, hope you will enjoy it! The video was filmed just before snow, now we are having loads of it!
I used a rounding hammer and a heavier hammer for moving the metal, while a smaller hammer will be useful for riveting. Other blacksmithing tools that will be handy for this project are blacksmith vise and improvised twisting tools, tongs for different grips, wooden hammer and wooden block for leveling the ring part.
No power hammer needed for this project.
Hope that this video could be helpful or entertaining for blacksmith enthusiasts as well as for craft loving community or just any person interested in how metal craft is made! If you are inspired to forge such type of knocker or pull, please let us know about your results!
We hope you will find out something new about blacksmithing and enjoy your visit to our small countryside workshop!
It is great to hear that our videos seem to have calming and relaxing effect! =) We really like the original sounds of our smithy, we use a microphone RØDE for sound recording. So all the sounds in our videos are recorded in our workshop and around it. Relaxing sounds and calming yet organized atmosphere are inevitable parts of what we hope our videos should feel like.
If you like the video, please, let us know by leaving a like - your kind support is always so motivating!
You are very welcome to find the Door knocker as well as other door hardware at our online shop!
Stay safe! Stay motivated! Late autumn vibe greetings from Sun Hills! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

Great video!
Thank you so much!
Amazing work! It looks so bad ass
Thank you very much! Glad you like it! Greetings from Sun Hills!
This is the first time I have seen the pin to keep the ring from turning. So simple and obvious, but I never thought of it. Thankls for the video.
Thank you so much! In some projects it is really annoying that the ring moves around when it doesn't need to)) Takes a little more work, but the result is worth it. Glad to share some ideas. Greetings from Sun Hills!
I really liked the project, I subbed.
Thank you! Welcome! =)
Nice unique design you have a good eye for detail, very important when blacksmithing objects/designs.

Fantastic work! I’m really enjoying your channel; it’s looks like you live in a beautiful place too!
Thank you so much! Happy to hear that you are enjoying our channel! Latvia is beautiful! =)
So glad to see you back in front of the camera.
Thank you! Great to be back! Sorry for a bit of the delay! Greetings from Sun Hills!
This is very very cool 😎my friend. )Your horses' hay looks a lot better than ours lol)
Thank you so much! We have serious Armageddon with hay this year here in Latvia. So our hay provider kindly agreed to collect the hay from our own field for this winter. We are very lucky to get just enough rolls of our very own hay =) And the horses are really enjoying it!
Marvelous video. Nice comic relief touches but not to frequent ones. The balance between process showcase and artistic video elements (showing the outside, cutting to other stuff in the Workshop etc.) has been made very good.
Thank you for your kind words and for noticing our efforts to balance the video! Happy to know you enjoyed it! Greetings from Sun Hills!
Another great video 👍👍

You are so hardworking people! This is as always so beautifuly done video❤️ Good stuff😍I love in general in your videos color contrast between grey and fiery yellow, red❤️ Beautiful close-ups, so powerful❤️There is something poetic about dead lilacs 🤩I laughed maybe too hard at throwing an apron and face expression at that moment😆Beautiful work, great job❤️ Keep going! ❤️
Thank you so much, Kitija, for your kind words and great power of observation! We did laugh a lot about the apron, too! Always happy to make you smile! Many many thanks and frosty greetings from Sun Hills! ❤
Thank you for making this video and sharing your work. I picked up a couple of tips I can use in my own work. All the best!
Thank you! Great to hear that you liked our video! Greetings from Sun Hills!
So many great things to comment on. First of all, great to see a new video out. Your videography is always great, very enjoyable to watch. Your blacksmithing is clean and beautiful as always! Your double crescent wrench twist wrench is really cool, I've never seen one quite like that. Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Very motivating! I have never seen such type of double wrench, too, so I had to make it myself. It works well and is quite useful for some twisting =) Glad that you liked our video! Greetings from Sun Hills!
Nicely done!
Thank you!
Why cut out a section of the knocker and install the pin at 14:00?
To make sure the ring stays centered in its place.
@@SunHillForge oooh, that makes so much sense. Clever. I could not figure that out! Fantastic work.
@@mybreathyourlung Thank you! I came up with this idea/solution as I needed the ring to be fixed and centered. I have never seen such design anywhere else =)
Родной, звук потише отредактируйте пожалуйста. На минимуме и то глохнем всей семьёй. Работа класс, спасибо за видео.
