Ax and squid (with horseshoe appetizer) sans mechanical hammers

Very cool Bob, thanks for posting that.

I’m going to assume that when the subtitles said male, they meant mule.

"Horseshoe appetizer" is very funny, and not arbitrary. Making horseshoes must be a common element in blacksmith education not only in Spain but in France, (and possibly more widely in that area), since I was also given a made from scratch horseshoe by a French blacksmith once when we were together making and using axes. Seems like an ideal warm-up.
