Upsetting a 2 inch bar : Part one of four

Josh Greenwood upsetting a 2" square bar to 3" with the help of Sandra Wilson. Taken with a still camera this could be titled how NOT to make a video. Rotation of the image and merging it with other video is so difficult that the video should just be scrapped. But there are moments you do not want to lose. So we have. . . sideways video, for SOME of the scenes.

Big iron requires a big fire.
