Why I Make My Own Tools | Hammer Build

Light up the forge and make! This video brought to you by Squarespace. For a 10% discount go to https://www.squarespace.com/anneofall...

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.
