Torbjörn Åhman: Swedish smith, no talking, tool-making that is almost meditative
Hammers, tongs, hardy tools, axes, all forged with minimal narration and excellent camera work. Watch for technique: his hammer rhythm and how he moves metal with so few heats.

Great find. Did not know this channel existed.
Followed along, got it done in about twice the time quoted, but it is done and it works.
Would this work on the older model? Mine is about ten years older than the one shown.
Should be the same procedure, the part moved slightly but the steps match.
Nice. What did the whole thing end up costing you?
This is the kind of post that makes this place worth it.
Tried this over the weekend and it worked first time. Thanks for writing it up properly.
I did the same repair last month and your step 3 is where I got stuck. Wish I had this then.
