The #handforged #viking #helmet is finished up for now, needs a bit more sanding and polishing but I might leave it rougher looking, or I might buff and engrave it, not sure yet. wolfsdenforge.com #wolfsdenforge #blacksmith #armorer #blacksmitharmorer #armor #travelingtradesman #itinerantblacksmith (at Alma, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoA-_-pv_2-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Cranking out some #armor in this case a #viking #helmet which is what I was working on using the cut off pipe as a dishing block. As you can see it works quite well. It's a brisk 10°F today, -12° to those that didn't land on the moon, so I'll be wearing my thick gloves in the shop today to finish it up. Time for some more whack whack. wolfsdenforge.com #wolfsdenforge #blacksmith #armorer #blacksmitharmorer #armorsmith #bladesmith #swordsmith #customarmor #vikingarmor #custom #edged #weaponry #travelingtradesman #itinerantblacksmith (at Alma, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoANGFwujAv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Built a folding work bench solid enough to hold all of my heavy machines, tall enough for large mammals like myself to work at, and tough enough to beat on but still fold for portability. All 2x4 construction, nice and beefy. #foldingbench #workbench #travelingtradesman #itinerantblacksmith #wolfsdenforge https://www.instagram.com/p/B9fAfOwHOav/?igshid=1kfdgn8n98zrd

My poor, rusty anvil and tools need some attention. Between being deathly ill for a month and a half and my hernia, and other crazy misadventures that I'll leave for another time, I haven't been able to do much, but slowly getting some backed projects rolling again. Back at it. #wolfsdenforge #blacksmith #bladesmith #travelingtradesman #itinerantblacksmith https://www.instagram.com/p/BuW_3fJHXzH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=axd59m3jg1ek
