I like that you always share your knowledge, especially about safety, some people just don't know, glad you're looking out for your pupils, me included, thank you,
I love this idea. Great demonstration of what actually happens when you dunk hot pipe in water. We use the same concept for cleaning out valve boxes six foot deep with a piece of pipe and compressed air. It launches all the dirt and rocks out of the pipe
The legacy you are leaving is profound. The way you show the whole project is incredible. Oh if i would have had a class in high school like this i would have been hooked young. Amazingly fun! THANKS!
Nice , I have a saddle's that go over the screw on my vices Brass, Alum, Steel and a block of oak with L angles screwed on it. I have drilled holes in the block to hold stuff steady etc might work for the next time to hold the tire iron piece. Or really and other round piece you wish to hold in place.
Perfect timing again. I watched the old candle stick video last night and was planing to make one or two today or tomorrow. Thx for the inspiration again my friend ....Paul.
Another great video sir. Thank you. I appreciate you trying to be all inclusive with SAE and Metric measuring but maybe just stay true to you and let the others figure it out. They do make dual function rules and tapes everyday.
220cm candlestick.😂😜😝🤣 I recon you should give up on metric conversions John. It’s ok 👍, 😀 really you don’t need to. ...and maybe you shouldnt🤣😜. I think you said something which was 2in wide as 5mm the other day as well instead of 5cm, or 50mm You’ve helped me see the pros of the imperial system especially in blacksmithing. I can now convert on the fly.
What a great show. If one were to want to do a scroll with a chisel, how would you do that? If you did it before forming, say the ball area, would it end up distorted once you expanded that area? I also take your advice of safety glasses very serious however I have run into a issue. I use the uvex wrap around glasses that have the replaceable lens. I find when I grind, and with the masks I use, particles still seem to find a way inside the glasses. Do you have a suggestion besides goggles, which fog up really bad with the mask I use, which are better for grinding use and or if maybe a way to lower the risk of getting anything in your eyes? I have tried altering the direction of my grinding however it still seems at times I have to rinse my eyes. Thanks in advance for any advice. As always sir, I enjoy your content and you as a person. Well done 👍🏼
I’ve watched the video where you fabricate your adjustable fullering jig and I’ve also seen many videos since where you use the jig. Is it fair to say you’re satisfied with its construction? Any changes you’d make to it?
I love that candle stick, it turned out really nice. On a huge subject change, during that video there were some shots of the base of your new power hammer amd I was wondering what the chain, on the right-hand side amd attached to the foot controle, was for. Also, it's a brand new machine and it's already covered in dirt..😱... how can you do that?!?!?!? It needs cleaning regularly 😋
The treadle does not connect directly to any controls in the hammer. The chain is the linkage that connects to the internal valving. Dirt is the inevitable result of actually working I'm afraid.
@@BlackBearForge yeah I seen at the end of video when u said 3/4 black pipe thanks for the response keep up the good forging videos its helped me so much thanks
ok now how about making a stem for a smoking pipe ;} heh you did say you were from colorado right ;} nuck nunk nuck heh also big the smithing magician from that angle looks like a telagraph key before the spring fuller big john heh
