L'outil de Forge
- 1h49
A DVD carried out during of the 5th symposium of the European Blacksmithing. 9 reports on the tools for Blacksmithing, with great names at work.
Not much of technical information, but the reports are interesting, by their the tackled complementarity and subjects.

Much small intersting reports. I liked that much on bronze and the casting "with lost wax".
