How to Forge Tools: Bick

In this video I am forging a bick, also known as a bickern or a bick iron. This tool functions very similar to the horn of the anvil but smaller. This one is forged to fit into the hardy hole of my anvil, but a bick can also be made to mount directly into its own stump, or even a vice.

Nice job. Hopefully you get great use out of it for many years to come my friend. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep forge lit. Keep making. God bless.

Thanks!

@@northernforgeblacksmith you're welcome

Nice! If you localize the heat, it won't upset where you don't want it too. I was lazy when I made my bick, and just used an old buggy axle.

Yeah, I thought about cooling the ends to isolate the heat and prevent some of the flaring on the ends, but I didn't want to risk cracking the steel with water since I don't know what type of steel it is.

I was gokmg to ask if you re-fabricated the hammer you used in this video. Then i subscribed and then i saw the video of you making it!! Nice!! I have been wantig to do the same. Now i think i will!!

@northernforgeblacksmith Год назад

yeah, the 2.5lb straight peen hammer I used towards the end of the video to do the clean up is the same one I made in my $20 smithing hammer video. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed and good luck with your hammer.

thanks, I appreciate it.

I think that power hammer could rise up further to build up a harder swing.

@grigoriyefimovichrasputin7897 9 месяцев назад

Also what type of steel did you use for this bick?

@northernforgeblacksmith 9 месяцев назад

The hammer could definitely be designed to have a higher swing for more power, but I my springs can only stretch so far before they deform permanently, and I wanted to work within the parameters of parts I would be able to get locally.

@northernforgeblacksmith 9 месяцев назад

I don't know the exact steel, I work with primarily recycled materials, but I believe this was made with a piece of a hydraulic pin, which I believe are usually made from a medium carbon steel.

Nice bick bro! Do you like your cam powerhammer? Would you make another cam driven one again or a different style altogether. Im working on design for oliver treadle hammer with hardy hole on bottom. Might have to leave some room so i can add a cam to it later down the line. It looks like yours is a pretty capable hammer.

@northernforgeblacksmith 11 месяцев назад

I love my cam hammer, it has allowed me to finish a lot of projects that would probably have otherwise taken too long, and I definitely don't regret it. If I somehow lost all my tools and had to start over, I would probably build another one, but if I was to build another hammer, I would probably use a different design. I actually bought the clay spencer power hammer plans last year, but the parts to build it are still a bit expensive for me right now.

A handle for a cane

That sounds like a great challange. Thanks!

I want to see you are you make the The forge hammer Machine

@northernforgeblacksmith Год назад

Do you mean my power hammer? Unfortunately I didn't thoroughly document the process when I built it since I wasn't really doing much youtube back then, but I do have a few videos from the process and have a more recent overview video if you want to see how it works and some of the changes I have made from the original design.
