Using a 19'th century Ferrier's forge, Peter forges a nail header from a railroad spike and demonstrates how square rosebud nails were forged. He installs a plank floor in the 1700's log cabin build and shows how the door frame is fastened using wooden pegs. He then starts a fire using flint and steel and makes himself a cup of coffee.
