Adam has a go at this traditional craft.

Blacksmithing sounds like a trade from a bygone era, but it’s alive and well in the Macedon Ranges outside Melbourne, where Adam meets a young gun of the form, Max Tucker. Still only a teenager, Max is already a veteran with many years under his belt. But just because this is a traditional trade, don’t think there’s isn’t a large amount of art going into Max’s work. After Adam gets a tour of Max’s forge and geeks out as Max explains he made his own tools, he finally gets to live out a fantasy and have a go at smithing himself.

You still can’t wipe the smile from the affable chippie who won season 2 of House Rules with his wife Lisa in 2014. They then got married in May 2015, and moved from Melbourne to Sydney to join the Better Homes and Gardens team as their resident builder, it’s fair to say that Adam’s grin isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
