I accidently exported this in 50 fps :D But I thought that lets give it a try, so let you me know what do you think? And if there is other youtuber's watching this and you don't have yet Facebook pages or you are fed up on handling them yourself, throw a Maria/Voov media email and they will take care it for you.

Callback to many years ago; Lauri and Anni had a thermal camera, and a channel called Thermal Guys. I think they made one video. Edit: here it is. youtube.com/@thermalguys2535?si=Ko1pqoqek8w3VqdE
Should send the hammer back to the manufacturer and say it must have been a bad hammer because it twisted when you used it, let them think you're thor 😂

Everyone knows that.” Monty Python Bridge Keeper: “Right! Off you go.”
Could mimic a larger Hydraulic press using a system of levers. The hydraulic press pushes down on the end of the lever arm, while the item being crushed is in the middle of the lever arm. Shorter vertical travel but greater pressure. The lever arms would be thick and heavy. It is comparable to using a longer stapler arm, to staple through thicker books
@@Geoffr524 Yeah, IF they could find a lever that would actually withstand MORE force than this press already puts out, WITHOUT bending or breaking/buckling... THAT would be the key to getting that to work!

At least in the US, blacksmiths call those things "anvil shaped objects" they are fine for light cold-work, like the sort of things jewelers tend to do. But they aren't so great at standing up to a shift of making even simple steel projects, like door hinges.
Way back a few years in mold and die making we used a process called "Hobbing" to form cavities in steel by pressing a hardened steel punch in the form of the part we wanted die cast or mold in plastic. This was done to make a cavity that would be very difficult to machine in the solid. The presses were quite large and averaged over 1500 tons. Now a days we have EDM, Electrical Discharge Machining also called Spark Erosion. I still have a few of the hobs from back in the 1950's. The cavity steel was low carbon steel and after the hobbing process the steel cavity was carburized and hardened. I have been in the business of mold and die making way too long. Love your videos. Keep on doing the fun stuff.
You should put tape down at the corners of the press so you can see how far it moves. It might be important for maintenance but really it would be cool to know how much that insane thing moved on that hammer... that was nuts
The anvil never stood a chance, they’re hardened and tempered on the face for striking and even the best ones are only H&T’d in the important areas, cheap ones like that would give way before most standard hammers let alone a sledgehammer.
need to get a thermal camera and watch the heat signature as it ( the object) gets mashed and see how hot and how fast it happens... does the heat increase before it changes shape or only when the shape changes....
First, mouth off my fluffel of bunnies. Or is that more of s silent but deadly kind of thing? Second, it would be cool to see in thermal IR but I wonder if current cameras have a high enough frame rate to catch the action of the metal breaking, but also see hot spots before they dissipate into a blur. Probably good enough to get a pretty good sense of what is going on but I bet reality would look cooler (hotter) .
@@NataliaBazj the geometry is simple enough to assume the theoretical 45°. No need for Mohr's circle of stress. Just cut the 45° such that the hammerhead turns instead of sliding to one side.
Nice video as usual, and pretty cool to see someone from the States over there. I've actually been to Florida a few times, and live in South Carolina myself. My friends from across the street growing up actually moved to Florida, but before they did they would go there to visit family, and I even ate and the world's largest McDonald's with them on one of their visits. Anyway, I look forward to seeing the hammer explode. It might have went with a diagonal cut of about 45°.
U should get JB weld steel putty. Make a perfect cube using one stick. (When it starts to firm up thats when u really wanna squeeze it too a solid block.) Then let it harden for like 24 hours. Then put under the press.i wanna see how strong it is..and what happend too the liftle screen where we could see rhe punds of force
The fiber glass in the handle makes it resistant to extruding out the hole as the hole changes shape. Still impressive though, not all fiberglass-reinforced polymer is the same.
Lauri and co, just out of curiosity but what is the press used on the workshop when it’s not being used for the channel shots? Press-fitting of parts and stuff?
Can anybody explain me pls? The previous 150ton press compressed a tungsten block but your telling me this 300ton press cant even budge a sledgehammer?? How tho?
@<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="230">3:50</a> This does not seem healthy to sheer a press that far. I can imagine that it became damaged from that
*hers :D I am not always very good on English clearly :D We don't have separate pronoun for different genders on Finnish language so I tend to mess these up really often.
