Looking in our bucket of useful scrap, there is some black pipe. To turn that into a hook idea, I will also use some round bar and a short piece of flat stock to make a large swivel hook

Wow John my arm is tired just watching. That is a real sturdy hook. As a beginner back yard blacksmith I don't think I will be putting that particular hook on my to do list, but thanks so much for showing us all the techniques associated with making it. Cool video shots too. Now how can we sneak into your shop to add more junk to the bucket so you won't run out of material for Hook of the Week?

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

I have plenty more buckets of stuff when this one is empty

@johnnydrummond8738 5 лет назад

I love this series, I havebeen ducking in and out watching because our house wss totally destroyed by fire last Thursday and the phone line and internet were down but I could see little snatches at neighbours who were kind enough to let us go online to let family know we were safe. Keep up the excellent tutorials and off topic videos!, Gretings from Ireland, Johnny

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

Sorry to hear about that. Fire is a terrible thing. I hope you are able to rebuild.

@thallmeister 5 лет назад

+1 for the rotating overhead view at 3:57, pretty much what I had envisioned when you did the 360 camera video. You almost had some "This Old Tony" magic at 10:56 as well. Thanks for the videos and inspiration, I got my 120lb Fisher anvil and stump sorted out and now I just need to build a forge. I've made 1 hook so far at another blacksmith's shop, you make it look a lot easier.

Getting high tech now. That’s awesome using the drone. Pretty slick doing it in such a small space

WELL done JOHN you turn scrap into gold definitely worth watching I will have to make some for my shop

@glenndarilek520 5 лет назад

Amazing skill hitting the top of the bar that was dancing around while you were upsetting it. I was anticipating a miss or glance

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

You just have to aim for the work, not the spot you thought it would be on. It always amazes me how much the work dances when i edit the videos. I am hardly aware of it at all while forging

@benonablacksmith454 5 лет назад

I have to say there is a noticeable difference in camera quality! I really liked the aerial 360° footage!!!!!!

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

Thanks. It was fun to do, but perhaps more work than will make it i to most videos.

@lecompterc83 5 лет назад

Thanks for taking the time to show that 3/4" stock can be worked by hand for as much as you did (a little bit of time at the powerhammer does not detract from all of the education you provide)! And the hook turned out awesome!

@danielcrawford7315 5 лет назад

Even though it's a bit odd ball as you state...I find it pretty much a most useful thing for cords n hoses. Perhaps the most useful hook to date for the heavy duty aplications. Great idea, thank you for sharing! 🙏Blessed day sirSir, Crawford out 🧙‍♂️

@peterelliott2232 5 лет назад

John, we have done plant hangers that are plug welded from behind the mounting plate . It Looks clean and it's very strong. The scrap pile challenge generates great ideas. Thanks.

@thomasarussellsr 5 лет назад

Nice very usable shop hook. I like this one quite a bit. Thanks for sharing it with us.

@MPWorkshop 5 лет назад

You're making some progress with that scrap bucket. Its almost empty! Great work, and thanks for another video!

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

We may have to go to a second bucket

@MPWorkshop 5 лет назад

@@BlackBearForge I look forward to the videos if bucket number 2 exists! Lol. Keep up the great work! You're one of my favorite channels.

@andywright2606 5 лет назад

Very nice swivel hook John, Yer another good idea and very well presented video as usual. I was impressed with the 360° camera view as well. I'm a big fan of your channel. Keep up the good work mate.

@guyjones4936 5 лет назад

Hooks like this would be great in a tack room. Heavy harnesses and ropes would hang great on that.

@steelpennyforge5152 5 лет назад

That is a pretty darn cool hook!!! I am already looking forward to the next one!!

@rigidironworks9834 5 лет назад

Very nice John, I really like this project. I think I will make an attempt at making one for my garage, would be great for hanging air hoses for my compressor. 👍🔨

@danbreyfogle8486 5 лет назад

FANTASTIC, the hooks just seem to get better each week. I like the mechanical feature to this one.

I am loving these hook videos. Thank you.

@johnjude2677 5 лет назад

Great teachings.... Thank you Sir

@jan-reiniervoute6701 5 лет назад

Odd ball, yes. But usefull that it can be swivelled out of the way when not in use. I can feel myself bumping into the hook when empty but not folded out of the way, quite apart from the hook hooking when it shouldn't.

@StNuttall 5 лет назад

Shop lighting looks good for videos.

@76irodriguez 4 года назад

Here's an idea: cutting the pipe in 2 o 3 equal pieces to make them swivel on the round rod, making the rod the stationary piece, and welding hooks to the pipes for a 2 to 3 swivel hooks for coats or something like that.

@BlackBearForge 4 года назад

That sound very interesting

@bc65925 5 лет назад

I got out there yesterday to hammer out some tent stakes, today to work on what I think is going to be my shade for period demo's. If'n it all works I may just have to put together some kind of video on it as I could not find very much on the subject.

Hello John, this is unrelated to your video but was wondering how long it took for the paint smell from your gas forge to burn off to the point where it wasn’t smoking? Thanks, Emile

@pete2363 5 лет назад

Yyyeah that ain't a bucket anymore dude lol. I'm sure it had an honourable existence tho 😉

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

Thats why its all being turned into video projects. Trouble is i have a dozen more that aren't that bad yet, but will be at some point. This could be a 10 year project.

@TheMrWoodsman 5 лет назад

Most hobby Blacksmiths do not have a power hammer so can’t learn from the videos when you use one, please take this into consideration when including a power hammer in your videos.

@BlackBearForge 5 лет назад

I find this to be a sad statement. The power hammer really makes my life easier, but everything I can do with the power hammer can be done by hand if you are willing (and young enough) to do the work. Even if this particular project is more than you can take on, there is still much to be learned about iron work and how iron moves whether it is being moved by hand, press or power hammer. The number of hobbyists with power hammers and presses are increasing and those folks like to see the occasional video on how they might use their new tools. If people don't learn from a video simply because there was a power hammer used to save an hours worth of hand work, then its because they chose not to learn. You will still find that the majority of my videos don't use the power hammer.
