Thanks so much for this video. It answered a huge question I had about the process of iron to steel. Other videos seem to just gloss over this part.

For last year I did watch a lot of RU-vid videos about smelting iron and making steel. And this channel is one of the best!

Nice production value guys....steve mankowski and shelton browder should be national treasures but that dog is worth its weight in gold.

Watching a lot of videos about bloom iron and steel, I did not find any as informative as this one. Also music, atmosphere, all very enjoyable. In the first method, Theophilus, how much time do you keep the knife with clay cover inside the fire white hot for reaching to adequate carbon?

@@devrimaydin4824 Thank you! It was left in the fire for about 10-15 minutes, its very thin with lots of surface area.

Love videos like this. The amount of detail provided is great. What was used in the watering can?

@leesauder969 Год назад

That was just water- keeps the top of the fire from burning, keeps the radiant heat down.

Hard work there fellas😇😁

47:08 - how long that process took in that particular case? Whole time, how much time was left to cool, and how long it took to make welding heat?

HInt : At about 13:30 you see Steve struggling a bit to pull the plastic form clear of the clay construction. If you wrap the form with a sheet of newsprint, it will easily pull free.

How many iterations did you undergo before successfully creating steel? Were the instructions from the 18th century smiths detailed or did your team have to fill in the blanks to make carbon steel?

@leesauder969 Год назад

It didn't take many trials to get steel, but dozens to get some control of the result. Yes all these old texts take lots of guesswork and interpretation.
