what is the step by step process for making iron hinges, using a forge?

Hi there, Pumpsone!

I've been searching web sites for more nearly 2 hours now and I
believe that I have thoroughly exhausted every source of online
information for this.

I did find a few guides though, which I have included below.

While I was searching, I also took the liberty of finding several
books which may be useful to you.

they will not be open until Monday.
