Blacksmithing for beginners: A cheap and cheerful setup

A video inspired by a request from one of my patrons who's daughter wants to try blacksmithing. This got me thinking about what the most basic forge setup might be - and here it is!

I chat about the tools you need. Then demonstrate you don't need to spend much money on special equipment by knocking up a forge, setting up an anvil and finish with making a small project.
