Lets continue our discussion on forge welding by looking at the basics of scarf making and then move on to making a short section of hand forged chain. The concept of a proper scarf is an import one for most forms of forge welding and while the exact nature of the scarf can vary, the theory remains the same. Forging chain helps to introduce a simple scarf as well as proving an excellent exercise in forge welding.

I forged all the towel, paper towel and toilett paper racks in my house and have never needed another store bought one. Some of the stuff you buy in stores today you'll be lucky if it lasts one round, especially can openers. Can openers aint worth a darn no more. I can almost smell that coal burning now. Hi black bear forge! I really enjoyed the chain making tutorial. It takes a lot of work just to make a few links wow!

What great memories of grandpa and I at the forge. He had a system that we could make 10 feet before lunch. We started at 0500. He would do 1/4 inch for the horse rigging. I stayed out of the way aside from running the overhead bellows. He had a smaller anvil he would wrestle into place right to the fire. Thanks again for the memories. I really enjoyed this.You and he are so much alike. You even look a bit like he did.

Glad I'm getting back in blacksmithing, dad made me a forge when I was in 6th grade and before that he made them out of semi truck rims and drums for coworker's boys. Mine was a small one and I still got it and tbh very limited until I modified it with an angle grinder and a stick welder lol. Than in 9th or 10th grade metal shop I made another forge but it was very, very shitty but got shit hot decent enough and didnt melt because I welded layers of steel and plasma cut holes in it for the air. Got an old buffalo forge no 625 from a farmer, it was in the weeds and had dirt in the blower and was locked up, after a day of work it was working again. I can't take the gear box apart because theres welds on the shafts holding the gears in place lol. Still very cool, I have to make a thing for the bottom of the pot so I'm going to layer steel and weld it, drill a bunch of holes and bolt it down. The farmers has a bunch of stuff, he puts the dudes on American Pickers look like hobby horders. But he was self employed and worked alot and all the stuff he had and has he either used himself or his employees did. He has dozens of 100+, year old anvils which far surpass my railroad track nailed to a long of locust with 9 gauge wire lol. I like hot metal, heavy stuff, welding (I only do stick because mig welders lost their balls before marriage lol) I love hammering my favorite jobs have been framing. At 17 if I get back into it like I did when I 12-14 I might get decent pretty quick. I want to make stuff for people that amaze them, stuff they can hold pride in

cheers John, some good info there. If you remember I commented on one of the other videos I was surprised by the fumes when I first used borax. You said there were none to speak of, one of the other viewers said it might have some additives in my borax that caused the fumes. I checked my borax, nothing on the label, but the fumes are strong, and it is from china, so I'd say that is what my issue was. You wouldn't miss it if you had them as well!
@BlackBearForge
@BlackBearForge 6 лет назад
That is interesting. You can often buy anhydrous borax from an industrial supplier. Of course the commercially made fluxes work quite well, just a bit more expensive.

@groblerful
@groblerful 4 года назад
It was great to see your vid. I have an old chain here which has been forged welded, but it is a double interlocking link chain( two chains in one) Besides this the links have a quarter twist, so the whole chain can lie flat in a channel built into a draught horses saddle. I think it was refered to as a back band, and took the weight of the dray shafts.What amaizes me is how they got all the links to bear equal strain. (With single links it doesnt matter if there is a slight variation in link length). Have you ever seen such a chain, and how did they do it?
@ParanoidLeadBuzz
@ParanoidLeadBuzz 11 месяцев назад
Kinda reminds me of shortening gaskets, you dont cut sideways it'll leak you make a long cut across at an angle sorry I don't know the proper word, than you sand each end to make them flush. Working on old tractors with dad taught me that, we have sheets of different gasket materials but we also get manufactured gaskets that distributors say are for a specific machine we're working on and they send us the wrong stuff most of the time

@BlackBearForge
@BlackBearForge 6 лет назад
I can't really think on how I would do that with any accuracy, plus I don't plan to use it in any application that high strength is required. This is presented as a learning exercise and any length of chain will be dictated bu its weakest link, so testing one section may not indicate the strength or weakness of he next section. I would expect a hand forge chain to withstand a great deal of use, but not as much as modern chain.

I would like some information on how to buy stock and what kind of iron / steel are right for the starter
@BlackBearForge
@BlackBearForge 3 года назад
it really depends on what you want to make. But for most non tool work, regular old hot rolled steel or A36 is ideal. I buy from a steel supplier in 20' lengths. Most cities have one or more suppliers asking a local welding shop where they get material may help. square and round bar 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" plus flats 1/8" to 3/8" thick and 3/4" to 1 1/2" would cover a lot of projects. This video talks a bit more about where I buy from ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K4P1RPBSdcY.html

Lemme ask a question. Price wise, is it more cost effective to use the 3/8 in. X 6 in. round than buy a chain from the store? If I had to buy the steel and make the chain or just go buy the chain i guess is what I am trying to ask. And I am a new subscriber, I love your videos, Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
@BlackBearForge
@BlackBearForge 6 лет назад
If the only issue was that you needed chain, I suspect buying it is the way to go. The material to make the chain may actually be cheaper, but tools, time and forge fuel all play into the mix. The reason to make chain is to develop skill or to make decorative chain to enhance other projects.

@BlackBearForge

side draft hoods tend to draw better than overhead forge hoods. Blocking wind does help considerably, but you still need plenty of fresh air to make up for what goes up the chimney.

Hey John I just got my forge up n running I don’t know how to forge weld but my question is. The brick in the bottom of the forge look like they are covered with glass is that a sign that I’m getting up to welding heat. I didn’t think fire brick would melt. When u keep it wide open I run throw a 20 lb tank of propane in 2 hours. So it whaling. Lol. I no I just have to try but I just don’t have the conference yet. Thx ...Paul.

The welding heat is only toward the end being welded, so the risk is low. Even if it is hot enough where the other links are, they need to be forged to make them weld.

Yes, but they are much smaller and are the result of forge scale and flux
