Iron ore experiment-Part1-blower 

You should either make your handle a little shorter or build some kind of gearing system to increase the airflow.

You could Do a water-weel from ur bamboo- aqueduc to motorize your spinning blower and save you Time actualy spinning it by hands

It would be much more effective,if you use a bow and/or a string to move the turbine.Because if you use it this way,it will be exhausting and slow.

I like how all of the primitive channels are trying to break into the iron age. Even How to make Everything

Don't you forget the iron in nature is oxidated. Therefore, you will need to add charcoal (carbon) to get purer iron: FeO2 + C + heat = Fe + CO2 Have that in mind, charcoal is not only to heat the iron to melt it but to get purer metal pieces ;-) I would recommend you to smash both ore and charcoal into dust to maximize the reaction. Better luck this time!

With this same idea, you could probably use some water and make an automated fan for your house

Thank goodness this guy is doing something different and not just making 'swimming pools' like all the others

9:11 Use a bow or string for spinning it is way more effective

If you put a weight (ball of clay) on that rotor's axel, you would increase its inertia. It would be way more efficient.

I suggest you make 2 wooden pulleys, 1 at 10 cm, and 1 at 30 cm, place the 10 cm on fan shaft and place the crank handle on the 30 cm, connect with vine/string and achieve greater fan speed for blower output. This can also be powered by a water wheel. Reposition the blower output tube so it is offset to the top or bottom as the air movement will skate over the tube reducing the airflow if in the center. Rebuild your forge with the reinforced clay mud and thicken the walls a little. Grind the ore and charcoal into powder and mix together to reach a purer iron content. Keep up your efforts and you will reach your goal!

2:56 There's an ANT on your LEG, bro! Glad I could help out. =D

One of the main takeaways from these videos is how insanely versatile bamboo is. My lord you can build entire civilization from it alone lol

Good job! Great to see you listen to comments. I think your blower is pretty good. I would say make the handle closer to the shaft to increase speed, and maybe make the air inlet a little bigger. I don't think all the other suggestions in the comments are needed. Making the output pipe a tapered cone might also be a good idea.

Remove the bamboo basket will be better . It is blocking the air hole

make a bow instead handle, you can't rotate it fast enough with just handle

You are the cleverness hero.

do you think a bow drill will give it more power? easy to make would love to see you try. Thanks

The gear ratio is wrong. The crank must be smaller than the fan to get it up in speed. Make some kind of system with a string around the shaft that you can pull.

thing is, he knows that making iron is possible which is why he keeps trying! Just imagine in the past not knowing Iron Ore could be processed to make tools, and still trying to do random things to get unexpected outcomes.

Buddy you make some great stuff my kids and I have followed you ever seen you did your sleeping mat and have been doing almost everything you have done and we have had so much fun doing them and even the hut was the most fun thanks and keep up the good work . we'll keep watching and doing it the way you teaching we'll like everyone to

Use an air water mix (like water faucet aerators) and a water seperator. This was done in Asia and Europe in the early industrial days. That river/aquaduct should work nicely. Also the water makes an automatic seal.

Better eat some beans because they will make more wind than this. Maybe you should try some bellows first?

if you run out of things to do while you wait for other projects, then you could either smooth out some better paths to save on movement speed or build a water wheel feature... of course you should work on practical first, but you never know when you just need a spot to sit down and relax...

When you thought primitive technology finally uploaded :(

You should have added some weight to the elise, it would be more efficient since you are planning to turn from that position, you should have made a conical outlet of air as much as the elise. I do not think this will work well. Otherwise I want to commend you, only your channel and channel primitive technology (australian) are great, continue as you did so far, thank you for great videos.

Love your hair cut bro ...

most excellent

Dual Twine system instead of a crank might be faster? I saw the comment on using the aqueduct which makes more sense by takes another paddle, and water displacement unless you have long rope/twine to give it some distance. I think the bow/string/twine method would be a simpler use, though I do like you went the extra mile.

well atleast its not the same ole furnace plan. nice touch Drew

Почему ребята не хотят пропустить усилие от рукояти к пропеллеру через ременную передачу? Ведь так можно значительно повысить объем подаваемого воздуха при уменьшении затрачиваемых сил.

Great camera work as always.

I’m continuously fascinated 🌺

For a channel about all primitive tools you have some good video editing skills 😂 kind of contradictory but funny if u think about it

Good article on the BBC mentioning yourself

I think you need a funnel shaped air outlet instead of a straight bamboo pipe. The funnel shape will increase airspeed.

Kênh hay quá mà h mới xem!

Anyone else start laughing when he put the hand-crank on there? No way any normal person can spin that fast enough. (Needs either a bow drill type setup, or some kind of pulley system with a big wheel turning the small one.) Although I still think an air-pump type system could also be made from clay. (Quite possible to make tubing just like you make pottery.) That would ensure that it resists any heat.

Wow you really did your research from last Iron making video! Good job :)

I love your videos . thank you so much! I watch them all

I believe that if you placed feathers on the paddles, to have a better fit, you would have been successful with this method.

This is awesome!

with a waterfall you can use the water energy to move the impeller

Good job!

It will working..believe him..gud luck my bro..

where ever you are in this video is beautiful

next level: Gears! =)

needs larger air intake, turn handle in the direction of the outlet, and needs to spin faster. i see the concept and it is good!

Yay new video up just as you said

very good design!!! but hand cranking is less efficient than bow (string + wood)

Where is this beautiful land? Maybe use a crucible & a pouch blower? Grind and rinse stone till wanted particles are separated from the stones and melt in a crucible?

Love how you meke things digerent to otjers

Good lucky in your experiment my guy. You may fail a lot of times, but im right you'll find a way of making it

Why dont you use pump-drill mechanism for blower

Nice

You could never walk with shorts on and bare footed through that sort of scrub in Australia. You'd be covered in ticks, have lots of insect bites and probably a snake bite! I'm constantly amazed you can do it there...

Терпение и труд всё перетрут.

Бамбук это как Лего. Просто супер дерево если честно. Наверно поэтому вы такие изобретательные. Но у нас береста не хуже. Мы от вас в изобретательности не отстаём. Тоже лапти плести умеем.

Whait NOW is goooooooo 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Make a waterfall from your irrigation system.. make power to move your blower system... btw sometimes if you fulfill the idea from your fans it will good for ur bussines.. good job man..

You can mix hot (coniferous!) tree sap with charcoal to make pretty hard glue

Muito bom 👍👍👍🇧🇷

i really love your video!! tiny hd hair tax on 3:30

the air intake hole needs to be bigger, at least the same size to the blowing end

After long long time

I like the videos except for the fast camera movements all the time. Waving the camera around so fast is annoying..

Boa tarde aron a que vontade de morar nessa casinha que paraíso Deus e cuidadoso e sábio e deu a sua inteligência 💚💛👍Brasil nedina

I hope its not gonna fail, i really think it wasnt enough, and your furnace should be look like a rocket stove.

You should build a fence around your land

With your water system already there, i'd try to build a "trompe" or catalan furnace, in order to have unlimited compressed air just using water and bamboo pipes.

Make a transfer from the water propeller

Personally I think you should make a foot treadle for the blower

nice.....

if you can do 2 gears for your crank fan it will be more than 200% more efficient.

Ya empezo los primeros pasos para la lavadora

Are you ever worried about snakes while walking around in the woods and brush?

You should master the energy of water and use to power the blower instead of using your hands :D

if you use two pulleys and a belt to multiply speed 10 fold, maybe just maybe you'll make some rust.

Well, you gotta have gear ratio system or try to make your handle shorter. It looks ineffective.

Do you have many snakes? It scared me every time I see you wandering through the tall grass without shoes. I know you’re being extremely careful but also know you’re trying to do many things at once including not die to venom.

сделай меньше ручку , лопасти начнут крутится намного быстрее , эффект редуктора понижающего !

This could be a litte bit to slow. Take to bamboo discs, a small and a Big disc. Connect them with a rope and make a handle on the big one.

É muita criatividade pra uma pessoa só em kkk

too small, needs better turning mechanism, blower tube too thin. I like the idea of using a woven basket to get the right shape inside the bellow. (Y)

build a huge flywheel!

Yo dude u need to make a water wheel with ur water that makes that spin so u don’t have to

the handle is too long. It would cause you to rotate your hands more. Shorten the handle for faster rotation

water Wheel not helps? u got flowing water.

I don't think that this architecture of blower is economic... Btw if fan is spinning one way, I would mount output pipe in such way that the air is blown with maximum momentum - not on the middle height. Make the chassis look like snail - shell gets incrementally wider and in the widest point is the outlet. It should increase performance. Also check if enlarged inlet would do better. The crank is IMO bad idea - You have to spin faster with ease, not to have big torque :P Regards, Horochov

Build it a catrol system so the van can spin faster

beatyful place where are you located?

faz algum vídeo de cima das montanhas

i keep wanting to offer ideas on the older videos lol everyone being mean in the comments about the air tube >:c and your weight too, it is fine here! im guessing you were hoping a thinner tube would have stronger air pressure, but with fan blades so loosely woven its probably not going to do much either way in the next video i watch. maybe weaving leaves in the gaps of the fan blades would have helped?

🔝🔝🔝

What was that?

👍

I hope you and primitive technology get into an arms race building from nothing

بهشون بفرمایید سه روز پشت سر هم سوره ال عمران در خونه پخش کنند و سوره احقاف گردن بندازن و حرز امام علی یا حرز امام جواد گردن بزارن

make it so the irrigation system powers the fan

Я, конечно, не знаю, но я думаю, что кпд этого поддува крайне маленькое.

show👍👍👍👍👍👍
