A colonial blacksmith's day started before dawn, pumping bellows to heat the forge to 2,500 degrees. The work was brutal: standing in scorching heat, swinging a heavy hammer hundreds of times a day, breathing smoke and metal dust. Hands blistered, muscles ached, and the fire never cared about your tired arms.
Yet the smith showed up every morning. Farmers needed plows for spring planting. Wagons broke down and couldn't wait. Horses went lame without new shoes. The community depended on his endurance, his willingness to work through exhaustion because others were counting on him.
