Big Red’s motor is being installed this weekend. I’m very excited for this new chapter to begin! As such - workshop will be closed Thursday-Monday so we have time to focus on not tipping the 1 tonne top heavy beast over 😂 This hammer is about 120 years old. It came on a ship from England to Patea up the Wanganui River. It was transported via horse and cart to the engineering firm who kept it till 2016. They used it less and less as the generations proceeded preferring more modern machines. I was lucky enough to pick this up and have been working towards its restoration ever since. 2 Hiab Trucks, 600KM, 200 Kgs of concrete base and a workshop later it’s almost done ! #powerhammer #allfiredup #blacksmith #forge (at All Fired Up Armouries) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDsdG1KHWtN/?igshid=1xvixx4g15h3e

The team took a mountain day today to enjoy the snow! Very cold and wet, good excuse to come home and stoke up the forge. #allfiredup #snow (at All Fired Up Armouries) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC47yP2npfq/?igshid=1tjrtsa6q5z8q

New Video Burgonet Reveal - All Fired Up Armouries https://youtu.be/ijUIaDpeBTQ This week it’s the final reveal of the Burgonet we have been building for a bit too long now. Due to several world setbacks such as COVID and solar power this has taken longer than expected but the results are excellent! We are very proud of this build, 2mm mild for SCA combat featuring etched foxes on blues steel for added bling. There are exciting new processes we have developed for this help and we can now apply them to other projects.

New Video Solar powered workshop - All Fired Up Armouries https://youtu.be/WKudutvLtoI This weeks video is on the sun! Or lack of really. We are fully off grid and powered by solar. It’s a great cost saving option and does not hold us back from much. However when it’s a rainy couple days we certainly feel the pinch in the power - thankfully we have a large petrol generator as a backstop.
