He didn't request a trial by combat because he had already struck a deal with his accusers to confess and be sent to the Nights Watch. When Joffrey orders his execution that was not planned, Cersei and Varys both plea for his life but to no avail. Even if he did demand a trial by combat or would not have mattered as Joffrey would have named Jaime or Sandor Clegane as his champion. Ned could not have defeated either of them at his peak and now he has been stabbed in his leg and starved in a dungeon. He also has no Champion he could call upon because his retinue in the capitol have all been killed and the rest is fighting a war with Robb. Also Cersei holds Sansa as a hostage, one of the primary reasons why he decided to confess was so that Sansa would not be harmed. Even if he would have won he would not have been free from the dungeons, only the accusations of being a traitor. He would still have been held a hostage as long as Robb was marching with his army. Any deal to free him would not have happened until Robb captures Jaime or any equally important hostage but even so with Tywin in command that is unlikely to happen. Lastly you can't blame Ned for feeling cynical over trials by combat. The last Stark to demand a trial by combat in Kings Landing was his father, Rickard Stark. And he was burned alive by the mad king.

Amazing documentary from Sweden showcasing how they made iron from raw clay they harvest in a bog. This method is how they made raw materials for tools, weapons and export from the early iron age until the industrial revolution! The first step is to dig up clay rich in iron ore from a bog. The clay is left to dry in piles and then transported to a foundry nearby the bog. At the foundry the first step is the roast the raw material. This is to remove moisture and biological material. The temperature of the fire is around 500-600°C but not higher since the material should not melt yet. This shrinks the raw material to 50% of it's original mass, sometimes to a third of it's original mass. This process takes 2-4 hours. As this happens the men prepare the foundry. In a stone clad hole in the ground with an air vent at the bottom firewood is stacked. When this is lit on fire the men takes careful precautions to not allow it to burn up completely. After an hour the firewood is turned into charcoal used to turn the now refined iron ore into iron ingots. The roasted iron ore is placed into the bed of coal will sink slowly sink to the bottom of the pit as the coal burn with a temperature in-between 1200-1400°C, the men peak into the airhole at the foundry and can tell from the colour of the temperature is correct or if they need to adjust it. The bellows blows 350L of air into the foundry per turn and the entire process takes up to four hours. The lump of iron is still full of slag and byproduct. To remove this its beaten with a hammer on site. At a smiths workshop a smith continue to hammer our out the byproducts until it's refined enough for production! In the forests there are many traces of iron ore refinement. The foundry's can still be found in good condition even if they have not been in use for over 500 years and traces of slag and byproduct still litter the ground.

Always a good idea to test how deep you will sink before driving heavy vehicles in a swamp.

This video is part of a longer documentary showcasing the craftsmanship of building a traditional Swedish scythe from the scratch, as you can see even the iron is produced from its raw material. I cut away and edited the iron production because I though it was the most interesting part but this is the documentary in its entirety showcasing the smith process of forging the blade and harvesting and processing the wood for the handle.
