Should you aim for efficiency or speed in your blacksmith shop?  When you have a lot of projects to do, you want to get them done as quickly as possible. Watch as I go throughout my day, and I discuss this topic. 

If you're an artist blacksmith, we encourage you to open an online store (such as Etsy). If you run a hand forged business, most likely you've come to the same conclusion that we have... making a living as an artist blacksmith takes a diversity of products.

If you want to be a blacksmith fulltime, we encourage you to take the steps you need to now, to grow your skills and business over time. If you're just getting started in black smithing, forged production type of items such as s hooks will hone your skills. 

In this video, I show you blacksmith projects to make... S hooks in 3 different variations: https://youtu.be/60E4q8KW_0g
