And to think the Vikings built furnaces like this where ever they traveled to replace nails that had fallen out of their boat .

I just came across the fact that since all elements are made of electrons protons and neutons technically alchemy might still be possible but with better tech.

Well of course you're not gonna get much iron out of that. There's hardly any to begin with. There's more iron in red clays or regular dirt. Sand is mainly silicone.

Right off the bat false. The hittites were not the first and it didn't come from meteors lol there's no evidence of that.

Iron smelting was first invented in Sub-Saharan Africa, so Iron was not first invented by the Hittites. This has to be acknowledged. There are dates if 2000 BC iron smelting in sub-Saharan Africa

I'd try using limestone for flux next time. I've been making wrought iron from baked iron ore with limestone for flux for about fifteen years now and it works like a dream.

Amazing idea for a project, shows just how tricky this critical step in tech is, but it's too bad they used so much modern tech for the smelt, the blower especially, if you're not going to use a Bessemer furnace, why use even more advanced tech with your primitive smelt, basically undermining any core idea in your project if you're using electrification in the process.

Never have so many, wasted so much, in order to accomplish almost nothing
5000 years ago the Hitites figured out how to do this with no electricity or access to accumulated knowledge. The Japanese have been doing the exact same thing to make Tamahagne for at least a couple of millennia, and these Nerds can't pull it off without stubbing their toes and wasting vast amounts of time, energy and resources. Apparently, they've never heard of Reading?..The fact that these People don't know how or even are aware of the benefits of coking charcoal in order to purify and increase the heat of their furnace, and the quality of the Bloom, says an awful lot about how little they actually know about what they are trying to accomplish...It's a bit of a Sad Joke.

Where I live, all the lakes have magnetic black sand in the bottom, readily separated via panning or magnet. And there were/are thousands of square kilometers of forest. But the natives never developed iron smelting or charcoal.

how did people back then go about sorting the black sand though? they wouldn't have had magnets right? Or can it be used without seperating it thoroughly?

Is good to bring back alive of a old traditional blacksmith trade. I was a blacksmith since 7 yrs old for almost 32 yrs following my father in Spore. We use to manufacture crowbars, hand tools, tongs, spanner, etc. but the gov had deter the trade by not issuing anymore license. I still remembered using the church hill spring leaf forger which have more impact power than the pneumatic type. Is so good that someone is rejuvenating the blacksmith trade where the young ones does not know what is it.

When hydro is shut off for weeks or more and the internet goes down, and it will happen one day, 93% of the population will not even know how to start a fire let alone craft tools and forge iron. Humanity will have gone full circle.

The world in being abiding democratic system of government must support the Philippines from the harm of Communist China...The communist China does not recognize the democratic society which respecting each other...so If the Philippines will fall to the communist it is also dangerous for other democratic country. So we beg your support from the harm of China...

The japanese has had this to a near perfected art for centuries. Ancient Japanese metallurgy can be called a spiritual processin some ways. For their weapons, like the Samurai sword, the highest quality silts come from very specific areas of specific rivers. Nothing more fascinating than watching the process of a Japanese sword being hand made from scratch.
