The Alec Steele Show Ep:6 Forging a Horse Head Belt Buckle 

Coming back and watching this video after Saturday, I really enjoyed this episode! The pace was great and whether it was the Qs from people or what you were talking about off the top of your head, the information was great! I paid for those Brian Brazeal classes so this was perfect.

Thank you very much for sharing your great video's. Your balance of talking and whacking is perfect. For drilling odd shapes like your belt buckle that is hard to clamp I use a pitch bowl. I tap the part well into the pitch. The bowl is round and I put it in a small tire so that you can drill it in any angle. Again thank you very much for sharing!

I literally just watched the whole show!!! I love your videos!!!!!

Sorry I missed the live show. That's what happens when you have a full time job and forge for a hobby. Still a great show, enjoyed it greatly.

As long as the yack yack is, mostly, about the whack whack what's wrong with yack n' whack?

binge watching as many of your videos as the internet will allow me. would love to see you make a wrench

I been forging hangers using horseshoes it is very good therapy for my mind. This is from Oregon Yahoo

That buckle looks super cool!!

Thanks for putting the show on, Im' learing just by watching you! I had a "pickled" plug yesterday while making a pair of tongs. Thanks for the insight, next time i won't try and punch it back out

Hi Alec, great videos my friend. I am interested in that little forge you are using. Have you done a video on that one? I bet others would like to know how you made it and what it is made of. Thanks

I can't afford a anvil right now, but I can get my hands on a large piece of tooled steel or a piece of mild steel. Which would you suggest. What would you suggest as a make shift anvil until I can get a proper one?

How about making a Tie Clip or Cuff Links? That would be neat, or is it way too small and fine to do?

Do you have any bumper stickers with the same logo that you have marked on to your anvil?

Your shop appears to be located in a steel warehouse area, is that your family business? And why would you drop out of school? How old are you and when did you start blacksmithing?

i think it would be cool for the next stream to make rings and or a ring mandrel

Caught the second live show but keep missing them now and have to watch them later. Quite disheartening.

youre freaking amazing

make a double doored gate alec :)

my name is Scott Wall i am a new blacksmith at 54 years old i made my first leaf today woohoo

You should make a 'sword ring' (a miniature sword made into a ring).

great video

Were your parents supportive over you dropping out of high school?

Shiet i lost it again

Nanna nanna nanna nanna nanna nanna nanna nanna Batman! 32:23

turn off your phone man, it will hold you back

sam pull your pants up

content would be allot better if the guy wasn't so creepy to much begging and brown nosing for my liking wont becoming back to this channel but i wish the guy all the best with his cannel

I'll have you know that I helped you out while you were wrestling with that bit of copper wire, getting it into the hole with your nackered thumb and side cut pliers. 1:12:00 I was holding my tongue to the corner of my mouth and tilting my head a bit. Does the trick every time. "You gotta hold your mouth right." my grandpap always said.

In keeping with your theme of adornment, what about a shop sign? That may be stretching the definition but you are adorning your workshop. As you so frequently opine, you're improving the aesthetic.

Enjoyed it. Thanks, Alec...

Thats one sexy buckle

Way to much mouth

Keep them coming Alec, you not only entertain, but you inspire! Thanks for the show.
