As we dive further into blacksmithing, we are finding that having a piece of equipment to better squish metal is almost a necessity. So instead of buying a power hammer or a hydraulic press, we decided to repurpose an old wine press, or fruit press, from the 1800's. We still have improvements to make, but this is a great starting point, and will help us be much more efficient while beating metal.
