Actually, I just remembered that you can even see this in action on several of the biker and auto shows on discovery channel. They’ve had a lot of episodes where they add a little heat to a peace of metal in order to make it malleable to hammer and have had accidents where the metal cracked from applying too much pressure.

The auto and biker retro-fitters of today are the modern example of the blacsmith’s trade of yesteryear. The same could be said for those who sculpt in wrought iron.

But, the simple fact is, iron is malleable when heated to certain temperatures. And those temperatures are nowhere near those put forth by Truthers in their ridiculous arguments. If a blacksmith can heat a piece of iron on his furnace to be malleable, then those arguments are worthless.
