Have you ever watched a metal craftsman in action such as aBlacksmith at a country fair... most people watch in awe as theBlacksmith carefully heats a piece of iron in a charcoal forgebefore placing it on the anvil and then proceed to hammer it into all kinds of unique shapes, it all looks pretty simple doesn't it...and the Blacksmith would probably tell you that it's not that difficult to hammer & shape things from red hot metal simply because it is quite fluid.
He's right you know,
doudoune moncler, generally all it takes to work with metal isa small amount of knowledge & instruction,

In the early days the blacksmith was one of the most sought after "skilled" workers in the village.
But you know, you can take the art of blacksmithing anotherstep. You could use the forge to melt metals.
What if you created a small charcoal fired furnace using yourexisting forge,
abercrombie france, it wouldn't take much work to build up a simplecircle of bricks on the forge hearth to form a deep bed of charcoal so that you could produce a bed of red-hot glowing coals which will produce a large amount of heat.Enough to heat and melt aluminium... maybe even bronze.
Of course a crucible is required to place the scrap metal or ingots in for melting purposes,and the crucible needs to be buried in the bed of coals so the heat of the charcoal will do its work for you.
All you need to do now is to apply a gentle blast of air from the forge bellows to begin building the heat in the charcoal, and thecrucible with the scrap aluminium, or home made ingots will quickly melt in the crucible.
Most hobby workers use a small electric motor attached to a blower to produce the correct amount of air blast, but for the moment, the manual operation of the forge bellows will suffice.
High quality hardwood grade charcoal will produce a high amount of heat, in fact you'll notice with the added heat the alloy ingots will soon start to melt, and once that happens the pool of metal in the bottom of the crucible rapidly promotes the total melt.
Once the metal has all melted,
