Thanks, that was not any windows in this forge so it´s was fairly dark. My video camera couldn´t capture in darknes unfortunately. Thats had been nicer if that was possible to se what the forge contain in this video :) It comes more videos from this, and other old forges who im using on events.

I love this video. This is my mental image of how metalsmiths have worked in Europe for thousands of years... Alone in a dark shop with just the forge light and a bright piece of metal. Beautiful! (By the way, I love the Scandinavian folk music, direct me to some if you can!)

When you take more images of this shop could you please image the bellows and the tuyer or fire pot. Here in America we would like to build ancient style forges. Thank you.

Thank you for the video of a blacksmith shop and forge in Sweden. I hope you document more blacksmith shops in Sweden. Good to hear the music also. Keep up the good work. Neil Ostberg
