Rese�a del editor

The initial cost of the equipment is always an important item. The amount of work likely to be done in the shop, the character of the work, etc., should also be considered. Fig. 1illustrates a group of tools which is considered a minimum equipment for starting a farm blacksmith shop. All simple forging of iron, and welding, can be done with these tools. FIG. 1T he forge a has an 18 x4-inch hearth. The fan is operated by a hand lever. Many larger and better hand forges are made, but this one will answer the purpose very well. Fans have now practically supplanted bellows for draft, giving as they do, a more steady draft. The punch bhas a handle. A common size of punch is the one having a -inch point. The hand punch illustrated in Fig. 3serves well for punching, especially for smaller sizes of holes. The hand hammer or blacksmith hammer is shown at c, Fig. 1. One weighing 2pounds is a good size for general work. The machinists or ball pein hammer of similar weight is now frequently preferred to the one shown in the illustration. The 1-inch hot chisel, d, and IJ g-inch cold chisel, e, are used respectively for cutting hot and cold iron. These are many times called hot and cold cutters.
