Sparks Flying

It is blacksmithing in the tradition of Laos and China.

Note the anvil .... it is a sledge hammer head embedded in a log.

The forge is simple a box filled with packed dirt with a push/pull blower.

He makes his own charcoal .... and everything else, except for the dirt.

God made the dirt.

Quack, Quack!
