$1 DIY Anvil 

Me

JJ Bookman That seems too specific are you his brother in law?

Richard Springfield If you showed interest maybe he would but I don’t know you so I don’t really know

@@Lane_Brian_Lane true

Well, persons cannot pick their dad per se, but we can pick who we watch and try to make as friends. KEK LOL KEK LOL

...and his main profession is as a lawyer...)

Thomas Jackson ....and sharp tools.

His welds are garbage. There are way better ways to make an anvil from scrap.

His skill terrifies me. He makes things seem unrealistically easy and might impart a false sense of confidence. It is a tribute to his mastery.

has he weaved any fabrics?

I think Maxi can make a bay all by himself!

Exactly, what resolve

Finally a comment I can agree with. I have made many of the things that Max shows in his videos, and if I'm I doubt and ask him a question, I always get a quick answer. I have also tried his chainsaw secrets to getting boards out of an log, it works like a charm.

Not everyone though... The potential is found with what's between the ears.

@@Cleopatrlck ingenuity comes from necessity, what your needs are, and what do I have to work with, I admire this man !

@@Cleopatrlck "We all have two hands. This is a great demo of what can one do with them." I guess this is figuratively speaking. I didn't make myself clear. What i meant was that not all of us have two hands, literally. But the ability to make something like that, that potential, is something that has more to do with your mind than your body. I saw physically disable people that are master craftsmen, they just found other ways to mitigate their drawbacks and do what they set their mind on.

@@senatorjosephmccarthy2720 I do tend to see the potential problems as obstacles rather than interesting puzzles to solve. And i agree that it's not really healthy. But at the same time, even if poor, if i have no debt, am fed and have a roof, a bed, internet and a PC i'm pretty much happy. And i feel that being happy and content is arguably a form of wealth. One that can't be traded but very precious to you alone. I admire people who know what they want and make it real. But i also feel sorry and i'm annoyed at people who spend more than they afford. In the end it's about luck and in reality there are more unlucky people than lucky people.

Bold of you to assume I have two hands

Dublin!..

Huskypilot 630 I sure hope they allow us to do just that!

At this point of history for USA, going backward to the time of Lincoln and Tzar Alexander II would definitely be going forward to a better future.

Jae Sällström more commonly known as a man!

@@buteos8632 Piss off

Or android

its not about talent but strong will to make your own items and tools instead go to work, make money and buy.

Absolutely

Makes you wonder what "modern" humans have turned into.... Nothing but a pathetic pile of excuses and lies

Max speaks better English than most of my friends.

Reminds me of me 40 yrs ago haha

Hello Kim! Keep strong, Seattle!

Very talented! His videos make me think that he is the "Bob Ross" of blacksmithing.

Anthony, thank for the feedback

Watch his Russian-language channels again: ru-vid.comvideos and ru-vid.com/show-UCozsBaBvOqQOybn4MRDehIAvideos

well all in all it's my interpretation so here it goes...I think it's due to available empty not farmed land, where the inflation still allows these guys to by a few hectares, most countries in the rest of europe have a very long farming season, specially the southern ones, so big farming takes over everywhere and what's left is quite expensive, that also allows a longer tradition relation between different generations, meaning, many of them spend their Christmas with their grandparents in the countryside, while mine already passed away in the city, so they still witnessed this wonderful, literally, lifestyle. it's a tragedy how much we've lost since the beginning of the past century, and so many wise men and women were lost to prisons and factory labor... current generations, we, are throwing everything away and we don't even realize it!!! People like Max aren't just entertainment, they are a lighthouse bringing us to the shore, let's hope enough see it and do their part, we are one people in this massive continent with Europe in one side and Asia in the other, 12.000 years of History to make children dream and Men rise!!!! Thank you Max 😉💪🙏

I hope I didn't come off as a wise ass, all due respect sir!

Start by learning how to use punctuation, my guy

Audrey Green-hite Necessity is a good teacher.

They are just worthy of neglecting, compared with the likers.😊

It's not their fault, they are born as under achieving losers. 😂

Nik, thanks for the trick!

Fast charring the wood 1st before oiling x2's the life of just oil. Also iron band the log 1/3 from top.

Another wood treatment is char burn it to a char, Scandinavians used to make a charcoal from their wood that they put into the ground just the bottom end, the sap in the wood , would boil and close the grain, like a glue, I guess the guy before me said it first

Thank you!

Glad to hear you did! Send me a pic of it if you would. advokomakes@gmail.com

I also come from a long line of blacksmiths. But their knowledge was lost 3 generations back. I have been trying to learn it again to honor my ancestors. Many thanks to Max for removing the mystery, and making the core knowledge available to everyone. There is bo mystery or magic. Just logic and science… and a lot of artistry. Extra thanks and admiration to Max for making these videos in English, even though it is his 2nd or 3rd language. Max - you are wonderful! Sposibo!!

Alf, glad to hear that!

Thank you very much for such a high praise!

Glad you like them!

Not really. Meat eating is not necessary except for the spiritually immature and those lagging behind in evolution.

@àsper - Your ignorance is pitiful.

"spiritually immature" next you will tell me I need to eat "high vibrational foods" and do "urine therapy" and "sun gazing" in order to be part of your super cool club

@àsper how did i end up with a vegan fight in my replies? i only see 4 comments are there more?

@@thegreatecb when we started out we were vegetarians with big guts passing gas all day warming the environment. then we evolved and started eating meat we grew big brains lost the gut and stood erect. your telling me to go back to that no way my friend I will eat more meat and donuts and junk food and look like our ancestors who ate vegetables and pass gas while scratching our junk watching youtube.

Thanks for the feedback

Advoko MAKES , I also wish to see how you did this.

Waterstones...

I am OK, thank you for your concern though))

Well, JFYK it is not actually his voice but the dubbing actor. If you interesting in hear Maxim Egorov's voice - check his main language
