Dunno how he was doing it, but I habitually set up in the middle if
some hay field somewhere. Consequently, all my equipment is non
electric. I'd do it my cranking up my hand-cranked squirrel cage
blower- if I get a chance to build this winter, I'll soon be using
either a double lung bellows, or a box bellows. Regardless, while
electricity is a convenience for smithing, it is mosr definitely not a
necessity ;-)
