In January 2016, Nathan shot some video about a large, 70-year-old power hammer Wadsworth uses to smash iron. “He uploaded it, and it got a few thousand views, and that was intriguing,” Wadsworth said. But that was only the beginning. After a few other videos, including one about a forge he designed and built, the two collaborated on a video in July 2016 about a blacksmith’s anvil. Over the weekend after it was posted, it received 100,000 views. Wadsworth has several anvils, but one of them is his favorite among a shop full of blacksmith’s tools. It’s a 448- pound anvil manufactured by Hay Budden Manufacturing Co. in Brooklyn, New York, in 1909. The anvil’s been well used over its 100-plus years, but it remains in top condition. Wadsworth can take a metal object, softened by heat from either his 2,400-degree pro- pane forge or his 3,600-degree coal forge, set it on the anvil and start hammering until it takes the shape he has in mind. It’s magic, he said, and it connects him to all of history. Every fastener, kitchen imple- ment, printing press part, even the bits in the horses’ mouth, they were all hammered out on an anvil, he said. • One-of-a-kind property on 5 acres with stable! • Single-level luxury living for you and all your guests • Separate guest facility with 4 bedroooms, 2 baths • Membership to Eagle Crest included • Turnkey family retreat or VRBO G HOWELLS REALTY GROUP BLACKSMITH: Ancient craft carries sense of magic Continued from page 23 STIN EW LI 541-420-9997 phil@blackbutte.com PEAK PROPERTIES PARTNERSHIP Dick Howells 541-408-6818 Black Butte Ranch, Sisters Area, rahowells@blackbutte.com and Central Oregon Let our 40+ years of combined experience work for you.
