So i am starting off the ball rolling on getting into blacksmithing and need some serious advise.
Firstly and formostly should i make a forge (i have literally no skills in metal working or welding) or buy one.
Secondly i need an anvil but i am hard pressed for cash as I have a family and a Partner with Aspergers so money is a wee bit tight as i am the sole income earner.
Can anyone point me in the right direction and whether i should build slowly by starting with hammers, aprons and the like?
