Blacksmithing and Forge Project Log

Studio crafts and making
Firings, cuts, pours and settings — written down so the good one can be repeated.
The difference between a craft and a lucky accident is a record of what you actually did: which schedule, which glaze, which feed and speed, which mix. These sheets hold that. They contain no schedules, temperatures, ratios or settings of ours — those depend on your kiln, your material and your machine, and the whole point is to write down yours.
Sheets in Studio crafts and making
Clay Body and Material Stock Sheet
Know what is in the stores before the order goes in, and keep the batch number of every bag and tub so a glaze that changes can be traced to a material that changed.
SD-02 2 pages
CNC Job and Tooling Sheet
Run a repeat job on the first attempt, because the tool list and the numbers that worked last time are on one sheet with the program name.
SD-03 1 page
CNC Machine Maintenance Log
Keep a router, mill or laser running as a maintained machine rather than a machine that is fixed when it stops, with the hours and the parts written down.
SD-04 2 pages
Commission Brief and Approval Sheet
Make sure maker and client are picturing the same object before work starts, and have a record of who approved what if the finished piece is questioned.
SD-05 1 page
Craft Fair Stock and Pricing Sheet
Know what actually sold at a fair and whether the day paid, instead of guessing from an emptier box and a fuller cash tin.
SD-06 2 pages
Dust Extraction and Filter Check Log
Show that the extractor was actually checked and not just switched on, and catch the blocked filter or split hose before the workshop fills with dust.
SD-07 2 pages
Embroidery Machine Job Sheet
Repeat a job exactly, months later, from a sheet that holds the combination of thread, backing and settings that worked, rather than testing it again.
SD-08 1 page
Furniture Restoration Record
Leave a record of exactly what was done to a piece and what was put on it, for the owner, for the next restorer and for your own defence if it is questioned.
SD-09 1 page
Glass Fusing and Kiln Schedule
Repeat a firing that worked and trace one that did not, because the schedule you ran and what came out are on the same sheet.
SD-10 1 page
Glaze Recipe and Test Tile Record
Trace the tile you like back to exactly what went into the bucket and which firing it went through, so it can be mixed and fired again on purpose.
SD-11 2 pages
Hallmark and Assay Submission Record
Answer a question about any hallmarked piece — when it went, what was declared, what came back — from one page instead of a drawer of packet slips.
SD-12 1 page
Heat Press and Transfer Log
Stop re-testing the same shirt and vinyl every time, and find out why a batch failed by reading back what the press was actually set to.
SD-13 2 pages
Hide and Leather Stock Sheet
Know what leather is really on the shelf and how much of each hide is left, before quoting a job or ordering more.
SD-14 2 pages
Jewellery Making Project Record
Work out a price, a repeat or a repair from what the piece actually took in metal, stones and hours, instead of from memory.
SD-15 2 pages
Joinery Shop Drawing Sheet
Get a piece of furniture or joinery from idea to cut list on one page, so nothing is cut twice and the drawing is with the list when you are at the saw.
SD-16 2 pages
Kiln Firing Log
Give every firing a number and a record, so a good result can be repeated and a bad one explained instead of guessed at.
SD-17 2 pages
Laser and Router Material Test Record
Test a new material once, properly, and keep the answer where the next job can find it — instead of guessing on the job and scrapping the sheet.
SD-18 1 page
Laser Cutter Job and Settings Log
Keep the machine's own day book, so a bad cut can be traced to a dirty lens or a changed setting, and a good one can be run again.
SD-19 2 pages
Leather Project and Pattern Record
Make the same bag, belt or wallet again — or fix the one that came back — from a record of exactly what was cut, stitched and fitted.
SD-20 2 pages
Maker Space Induction Record
Know at a glance who is cleared on which machine, and stop the argument about whether somebody was ever shown the bandsaw.
SD-21 1 page
Mould and Casting Record
Know how many pulls a mould has taken and which mix gave a clean cast, so a tired mould is retired before it ruins a job rather than after.
SD-22 1 page
Pottery Throwing and Batch Record
See which weight and which body gave the pots that made it to the kiln, and which batch lost half its mugs to S-cracks.
SD-23 1 page
Precious Metal and Stone Stock Record
Know what silver and gold you actually hold, what a job consumed, and what it cost you at the time — so pricing and insurance rest on a record rather than a guess.
SD-24 1 page

SD-27 1 page

Stop running out of the one thing that halts the studio, by counting it against a reorder point you set instead of noticing when the box is empty.
SD-28 1 page

SD-29 1 page

SD-30 1 page

SD-34 1 page
