Make A Precision Tool with Hammer, File & Fire!
In Forging A Compass, expert blacksmith Peter Ross walks you through the steps–at the forge and the workbench–to create a reproduction 18th-Century square-head compass.
Working with a coal forge, an anvil and a handful of files, Peter uses traditional blacksmithing techniques to forge the pieces, then assemble them and file the surfaces to create a beautiful, functional woodworking tool. You might imagine it takes high-end production machinery to make precision woodworking tools. But as our ancestors showed centuries ago, you can produce delicate and dead-accurate instruments with the most basic of tools.
