I show you how to make a swage block from wood, incase you don't have a nice metal swage block yet. Making a dishing stump such as is shown, is great for forging copper bowls with. I make this video in conjunction with my series on making copper bowls.

My first wood swage block has lasted me at least 6 years. My swage block is made of red oak.

Eventually you can upgrade to a swage block for sale online or through a swage block manufacture at a blacksmithing or metalworking show.

If you're interested in learning about a swage block anvil, I've got a video on swage block uses here:

This type of wood swage block is a great blacksmith tools for beginners. There is always a wide variety of blacksmith tools and equipment to be had, but this is a great start!

I hope you've enjoyed my diy dishing stump video. Making a dishing stump only takes a few steps, and I think most blacksmiths could benefit from having one.
