My father owned a machine shop for 44 years. As a small boy, on the weekends, my job was to clean and set up for the next weeks production runs lathes, milling machines and my father's four 100 ton Federal punch and press machines. I've never seen such precision workmanship done by hand. Your shop is reflective of your work being well organized, spacious and clean. Thanks for sharing your outstanding craftsmanship.
Your shop is so clean! My father was the blacksmith at the American Smelting and Refining smelter in East Helena, Montana, for 25 years. His two big forges were coal/coke and liquid oxygen fired. The shop was what you'd expect, filthy with coal dust and metal residues. He served his apprenticeship with sledge hammers, then when he became the smith, the company got him an air hammer -- a big air hammer that was about twelve feet high. I worked summers in the plant, so I got to watch him work from time to time. HIs shop was the coolest place in that horror-show of a lead smelter. Keep up the good work, Sir.
This is how master blacksmith work should look like. If not, they are bad smiths. Anything less is not enough. He´s a great blacksmith with such agreat tools and smart thinking.
In the shop I apprenticed in in the 70's , there was a can with a long handle attached. The top of the can was open, the bottom had two holes punched with a nail right next to each other in the middle. Anytime we forged a hammer or flatter or any surface that was struck with force, we would harden unit first of course. Then fire bathe the head of the tool and bring it to the anvil face up. The can was then filled with water from the water tub and the water dripped onto the face of hot tool, in the middle only. Warm water was allowed to drip off the tool, cooling much slower. This tempered the center harder than the outer edges, to prevent the tool edges from mushrooming or chipping over time.
I wick up in early morning just to watch you work you are awesome master you are coming from old history and you haf the old fashioned of the good old times when everything was perfect and sweet,,,we love you man keep safe for all your lovers and keep up the good work
I have to say that the cleanless, not just from your work, but also of your workspace, makes me like this video even more. Nothing against the usual workshop, but honestly i prefer a clean space like yours way more. Great job.
Always great to see ur videos. Very nice to learn all the different ways to make and forge things. Very nice job turned out very well there hopefully it gets great use out of it. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Keep Making. God Bless.
Wow, it is a long time since I have seen a professional swing a , what, 6k, 7k , hammer with so much energy. It is always the trip hammer or the hydraulic press. Bravo.
Hehe, the swing was nice, but the lenght of that swinging was just incredible! And everything with full power. That guy had some swinging done in his life ;)
Все чистенько аккуратненько, очки, наушники, фартучек приятно посмотреть. На полу не пыли не грязи. В общем молодец 👍😊 Птички поют человек работает в свое удовольствие.
я как то заходил на кузницу в Германии, частная кузня. и был у нас в России на нескольких. разница как день и ночь. у немца порядок, пыли негде нет, всё прибрано, даже плитка на полу узор видно. и кузня на угле. у наших же,, даже описывать не буду.
@@user-mm1jh3bq6u Аналогично. Смотришь любой видосик мастерская у буржуя, не новая! Станочек старый но ухоженный! Верстачок, ключики на стенде. Приспособа если самодельная то красочкой покрашена, ручки для удобства шлифануты. Россия, по сути все то же самое НО! Все для того что бы человек там погиб "морально"! Если приспособа то из арматуры и сделана на коленках потому что надо было по срочному (хотя конечно функциональна), ручки для "удобства" мозолями предыдущими поколениями отшлифованы. И единственное из цивильного и блестящего это измерительный инструмент, наши как бы тоже не лохи и это понимают, а вот все остальное "не мое и нахуй" и так за 1000 лет приучили.
I have recognized that “Flatter” means “金槌”. At the beginning, I did not know what the man in video was doing. At the middle,too. But, at the end, I have done. I have been moved them. Thank you to the contributor.
