Cannon Rebel T3 and blacksmithing

So I'm totally taken with the camera still... (Great camera tutorial right here.  In plain english :) ) It's a Cannon Rebel T3 and we have 2 lenses-- a 18-55mm lens and a 75-300mm telephoto lens.  
As I mentioned my husband built a forge....
He's been itching to use it so he made something called a drive hook...
 This is a 1/2" piece of steel...
So here's what it looks like all finished up....you drive the stake at the top into a wall or post in your barn and hang tools from it...
So the beginning of a new skill...
 Which is always exciting...exploring what you can do with a new material....
And who knows what will follow...

  1. wow, awesome! Your hubby has a very nice anvil. My hubby wants to learn blacksmithing as well. He has 10 anvils of all different sizes, plus lots of tools he's gotten at auctions. He is still looking for a forge so he can give it all a try. I can't wait to see what he can do! Thanks for sharing!
