Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make metal ingots for your own forging. Whether you are making knives, swords, animal heads or other goods for profit, this process is a great way to create precisely the size and type of bar you need
The first thing you＊ll need is a hammer and anvil. You can find these items at most hardware stores or even at the local library. They＊re affordable and easy to use. If possible, I would recommend using a blacksmith＊s anvil as it is much stronger than a regular one
You can also use tongs to pull out your ingot from the fire when it has cooled down enough so that it doesn＊t break apart when you pick it up by hand. Simply grab the handle with tongs and pull out the ingot from your forge fire; then place it on a piece of steel (preferably) for about five minutes until it cools down enough so that it doesn＊t crack anymore; then repeat this process until you have all of your desired pieces ready for forging into different shapes before moving onto
