But still, how not to twist - without a special tool can not do nowhere, and this case is by no means an exception!
Настоящая, старая, ручная ковка металла, которую used a few hundred years ago, very much different from modern. First, in those days, they used an extremely hot method of forging metal. Compared with the cold, it will have a number of advantages, since the hardened metal in its qualities is several times higher than the raw. The old edged weapons, which were used on the battlefields, or presented to noble people - a vivid example of hardened metal of high quality. Such a weapon can lie for a long time, and at the same time, it will not deteriorate at all. Today, we live in the XXI century, and the battle on sabers and swords have long since lost their relevance, therefore, metal of such quality as it was before, almost nowhere to be found. Of course, one cannot say that it is not at all! It is, but the cost of a good hardened metal will be much higher than the cold one. And to get such a metal will be much more problematic.
Today, forging metal at home, this isas a rule, the creation of decorative ornaments, the production of forged gates, fences, wickets, gratings, etc. For such products, cold metal forging is mainly used. This is due to the fact that products such as gates or grilles are not designed for powerful impacts or severe damage, and therefore, hot metal forging is simply not necessary here! Metal forging at home is a very good source of permanent income. Not for nothing, many private entrepreneurs have chosen this occupation for opening small, medium, and sometimes big business. But in order to extract a good profit from all this, first you need to invest not small money here.
Металл - далеко не самый дешевый материал для production in our time, especially as for cold forging, you need to use high quality metal. Machine tools made with the latest technology, which can easily bend cold metal, are also decent money. But about the very process of working with this equipment should not be forgotten. Without special knowledge and skills, it will not be possible to produce a good forged gate even on the newest equipment. Learning this craft is not easy, but still it can be achieved by removing enough time and effort. If the real craft of forging is compared with the ancient one - it will be heaven and earth. By and large, today, learn how to cold forging metal, almost everyone can. And that swings the ancient peoples, then they craft metal forging passed down from generation to generation, and some master blacksmiths carried away their secret with them to the grave.
Now everything is much simpler, and for mostmodern people, forging metal at home is the most common hobby that brings a lot of pleasure. A striking example of such a hobby is making cold weapons at home. In most cases - it is not legal, but still, it is not a hindrance for lovers of cold forging. Naturally, such a weapon will not be super strong and reliable, but for him it is not necessary. People who have chosen such a hobby for themselves - create such weapons as wall souvenirs, which can often be found on the shelves of hunting and sports stores. The cost of such souvenir weapons can vary from several hundred rubles to thousands of dollars, or even more.
