I’m not into guys but as a woman I’m surprised blacksmithing isn’t higher. How am I supposed to be your knight in shining armor if you can’t make me some shining armor?

It's going to be boob armor and just leather straps to attach it over a bikini.

Jokes on you I’m down to model that sort of thing for women

I've forged everything from aluminum to Waspaloy, from handheld to car-sized.

Unfortunately, I used an industrial press and lots of math. Not sexy. What respondents really mean is hipsters with an anvil. Then you're wearing an apron with no shirt, sweating, and smashing something hard and repeatedly.

If you were into guys and said that on our first date, I’d be there on our second!

I’m getting a bit tired of home automation as a hobby anyway - i don’t meet many new people inside my home. 3D printing was next on my list but then I’d have to collect WarHammer miniatures

It's probably too rare. Like, woodworking is somewhat rare, but to do that you just need a basement or a shed or a garage or something. Blacksmithing actually requires a forge, so I'm assuming that far fewer people actually do it.

With it being so rare, I bet that the women who don't have any experience with a man who's into blacksmithing don't think to mention it, or haven't really thought of it. And the ones who do have experience have had a mixed experience. Blacksmithing is loud and dirty so I bet the charm wears off quickly.
