Standardized Reporting of Experimental Iron Smelting - A modest (?) Proposal

The development of effective bloomery iron smelting has progressed over the past decades from the first repeated experiments into documented, effective, methods. This progression has primarily been the work of often isolated individuals, many with great practical experience as artisans, but most oft...
