    That was an amazing oven, great execution, one of the best home made smelters I've seen. That harvest was impressive.
  • @shutupmanful
    I'm more impressed with the way y'all saved the sod

    Wow thats the way to do it ...I see so many of these videos where people just don't value what theyre making and the resources going into them but you nailed it...a beautiful bloom and a huge homogenous piece of iron...very very cool Well done guys
  • @mrMacGoover
    The last bloom was absolutely huge! 😯

    This is what happens when there's no Renaissance Fair or cosplay event for these guys to attend.
  • great quality video. as your friends sat around watching you guys I wondered how it would have been the same so many years ago with your ancestors. neat video 10/10

    Removing the lawn to place it back later at first had me convinced this must be Germany. :D
  • @mikeb5063
    enough iron to potentially make 15 swords
  • Wow! Everything about this was beautiful, from the iron working to the scenery. You make me want to visit Denmark.

    I've been trying to make my own iron on and off (mostly off) for a little over a year now, most of that time spent gathering ore. A few things I tried to smelt it didn't work, but yesterday I had a very minor success using my diy gas forge as a bloom furnace. Most of the magnetite sand didn't smelt at all, but some worked out well and coalesced into a couple small melty looking pieces. This should help a lot in improving my process, thanks

    I have to say...your soil is magnificent. Here in North Texas, our ground is mostly rock and infertile and must be heavily modified to make things grow
  • Not surprising the magnetically separated material produced a giant bloom it had to be hundreds of times purer than that bog ore. Also multiple tappings moved most of the slag left out and away. Pretty genius.
  • What a fantastic bloom! And I love your technique with the magnet.
  • Hello! I just stumbled onto your video and I am really glad that I did! Your skills and resourcefulness are amazing! Thank you for sharing that process with us! I subscribed. All the best!
