FORGING HAMMER WITH STRIKER - WHOLE HAMMER MAKING PROCESS!! Episode 43: The Alec Steele Show!!

[Applause] [Music] [Applause] you hello welcome back to episode what was it 43 or 44 of the Alex Steel's show either which way fabulous to have you here it's gonna be good what's going on Sam you're looking at the computer confused are we good okay great episode 43 or 44 I can't remember but we can be making a hammer now you guys have seen loads of hammer making videos over the past month I understand this is gonna be a little different because we can do the whole thing with a striker and in this stream we can do the entire thing start to finish provided it doesn't take like you know 50 hours which I doubt it will I think we can hammer this out pretty snappy provided Salmons going to hit like a blacksmith instead of a farrier I think that might make a good t-shirt stop hitting it like a flower probably get me it probably wouldn't let you be very welcome it sorry you should hit it like a bear is what you think I think is wrong so we got a piece of steel in the fire it's hot I've set up under top and bottom Sam what do you say we punch a hole great looks like people are coming in wonderful wonderful wonderful hello everybody welcome we're gonna do some blacksmithing [Music] I'm gonna be working kind of right about here Sam just so you know good split-screen there we go that's great you ready Sam it could be some tiring work gonna turn these on here we go so let's pull this out of the fire put a glove on for this wonderful having you all here there we go see if I can find my set of punch marks I want a medium blow not too hard I'm then going to have a look at it I need to come over to me so I going to tilt the billet there we go that's a little better now why is it time to use the other side it's such a perfect why is it that we're making another hammer this we're making another hammer because I can't count I never trust me to count anything if you ever stumble across me and you say hey Alec can you count out can you count something for me never trust whatever I would have read come up with you haven't swung a sledgehammer in a long while have you tut tut Sam has been slacking point more sorry to give a bit for up in it you know it turns out I'm just going to swing you a fairy tut-tut-tut anyway the reason I make it a hammer is because I can't count and if you're wondering why not counting would mean that you make a hammer the reason is is that I didn't count correctly the amount of orders and I didn't count correctly the Man of Steel going in the fire either which one there was a point in time where I didn't count and so we are one hammer short this is the last hammer remaining so the gentleman has been emailed nice apologetic email I mean a very silly on my part to have not double-checked throughout the process but this is gonna be fun nonetheless I haven't made a hammer with a striker in a while now it's got to be a month and a half or my goodness the last completed hammer may be March 1st that cross pin but we've never done the full hammer making process on video yes this is going to be fun this is going to be good good [ __ ] head out hanging out with you all the whole way through and giving a little bit of an insight as to how this you know all of these hammers that I made the 70 odd that I made how they were all made we are we good over here guys with the comments all coming through well 770 wonderful so we have been in the workshop how are you been welcome to the stream he says it's lovely to be here Sam obviously is here now we coordinated outfit so we're wearing the exact same thing Wrangler jeans the exact same t-shirt they're not Wranglers Hugo Boss Hugo Boss it's a little upmarket Sam goodness they probably cost like five times as much as the Wranglers we went to bad relief work jeans now how are you all why do I want Sam to use the other side of the sledge great question if you go ahead and go into the zoomed in other one there we go and if I can just see the screen sorry so this is the good side of the slide just a little rounded this is the bad side of the sledge Blake who visited he wants took a chip out of that so he took a chip out of it I then had to grind it so that wouldn't be an issue but this is also a flat side of the sledge it's a lot easier to hit a top tool with the flat side with the rounded side of a sledge because when you're hitting things now the sniffly nose when you're hitting things flat on flat what tends to happen is have a kind of not once then but usually okay this is a poor example I guess it has a very help crown there's a poor example what I was about to explain was that when you're trying to hit flat on flat and you don't get it right the hammer usually flies off in different directions every single demonstration I've done of that it does show however when you drop around onto a flat it always comes straight up which means that you seem to get less jarring when you're forging with a round side of it so when we're striking tools where it's got a flat surface it seems to be a little easier a little less skipping and dancing' of the tool the sledge by using the round of set of slaps that's why I asked him to switch it on over hello table ster from Georgia hello everybody we're making a hammer welcome welcome welcome right you ready Sam I believe we're about to be hot there you go keep punching this hole a lot of beeswax so I wear eye protection stuck slap it off of that and I'm going to grab a rag while that cools so I can wipe off that excess beeswax that would have been a great one to film in the slo-mo soda came up just beautiful that's nice cool and my rack is falling off already okay great I'm going to flip it over tap off my scale cool my tool look for the mark I'm going to come into the other side this isn't going to be one of the greatest holes that I've ever punched tiny pinprick this isn't going to be one of the greatest ones I'm going into the slight angle from the top and I try and line it up perfectly oh wait wait wait wait little harder I'm going to turn it round with each blow see how it's going right wait tilt this move it over keep that tool cool I'm out of practice I haven't done this in a while there we go that's a little better we will get out of practice I'm sure it's straight of course the great thing about the hydraulic press is how much easier this doing 70 of them two strokes per per one [Applause] that's right this is funda working with a striker is very enjoyable it's pretty much the kind of lead backbone to what I know apparently this is at the same time of the Champion League finals is that football soccer so I'm gonna make sure that we're you know speaking a correct form of English all of us can understand everybody knows what soccer is [Music] Sam was a professional soccer player back in the day oh yeah yeah played for Manchester got a pretty good pretty good pretty good track record I try to sound but boy I don't know what you could call a player that done well he did not play for Manchester he played for Leeds Great Yarmouth that would be the one women okay so we have a plug almost coming out you can go wide if you wanted if you just did it by gogo there's the plug dropped out of there that's actually pretty good I'm actually quite happy with that hole I we're not going to have any issues from that whatsoever so that's very good [Music] what's up hello what's happened this is just the computer that okay I have no idea what they're doing they can read some kinds how are we all how are we or how are we or how come you don't have a forge in with the power hammers etc saving a constant back and forth because here I can at least keep a little bit of the heat out of that room I don't want to be pumping the heat into that room because I can't ventilate the room very easily so I can't cool it down here at least the heat is much closer to the exit so it gets out of there as well I quite like especially when I'm doing like the production work I like working away from the heat and I like though it takes a lot more time at it more effort I like getting up from the machine especially when I was doing those hammers I liked getting up from the machine being able to stand up walk to the forge you know stand up straight stretch a little bit grabbed another piece and go back I felt that the bow I might have spent an extra whatever it would add up in a day 20 minutes I felt that it was worth being able to actually stand up and walk around and move a little bit from piece to piece fantastic question bike worker League in the YouTube super chat feature which you should definitely use it's a great way to support the channel if you want to throw some bucks our way um quark a flea get asks Alec can you give us a clue to what doom a good part of me - what Damascus wonders we're going to see over the next month now that you're back to full-time vlogs great question I want to do a sword this month here in June a sword needs to get completed I also I need to complete this these engines and I still have many more days work on those real undertaking it's going to be a whole whole whole hog of a thing to get those looking how I want to get them looking so that can be fun and want that done I'm going to Serbia for a shooting trip which is going to be fun a pistol shooting course I'm going to really enjoy myself there you need Serbian heat yes this is England and we have to travel to Serbia to do some physical shooting how it goes and after that is then back into the workshop probably immediately starting on making up a big big big block of Damascus steel to make a sword from then cut some cool things with the sword I can't wait I can't wait so I'm very excited a sword is going to get done and maybe it's going to mean that I get addicted to making swords and head and make loads of swords so there we go you ready Sam not quite hot enough turn the regulator attached there we go so I'm going to set up my amble so I'm ready very good job I didn't didn't come out of the forge before I was set up need to make sure our drift handy where's my hammer whoa if you can get that web my Hannah tisha where's my hat there is my hammer so I'm going to come out put the piece on there start driving the drift going to go well or good sound many good questions coming in right who are they suggesting [Music] man of arms I don't know if they do a collaboration that I think they're working on a TV series and they're what yeah they're working on a TV series omits it's a it's a company rather than kind of individuals it's like a production company as far as I understand that does the whole thing did I finish the hinges for my box no absolutely not haven't touched them since you last saw them so I'm going to be back on that on Monday lots many more days will work to go with that what else is going on in the comments [Music] what part of England my from look in the description of any of my videos or giggle me it's simple well I'll help you I'll give you enough time to google it and you will know by now if you googled it but I'm in Norwich for those who are curious and didn't actually really care that much to Google you now know but you googled it and you know to which is great what kind of sword will I try to make I don't know I think I want to make a sword that's fitting so like I eat fitting in terms of any movie releases that are coming out any video game releases that are coming out try and make something that fits in with something new and big that's happening so that we can kind of leverage a little more views off of that which would be exciting so I still haven't picked what sword I want to make but I'm sure will be very exciting I definitely do want to do something with Wrangler star I want to set something up set a fun collaboration up you know not this month maybe next month it'll be fun really looking forward to that lab Wrangler stars videos couldn't believe it when I found out that he watches mine with his son - which is just even more awesome it's get rid of that Club Sam I have a runny nose oh my goodness sorry you're gonna spend the entire show listening to me sniffle stop okay ready tada so we're going to start drawing the cheeks out we're using a top fuller for this we're not using a ah runny nose this is horrible we're not using a bottom fuller because it's a little bit of a pain to line up I need to focus more on this side [Music] right we're not going to release in a cutting tool I can give it a brush thank you come all the way around I'm going to read rive it just a little bit so they can keep forging it it's up thank you lovely it's awful so if you mind doing me a favor pulling that up with water preciate it chat buy me a penny values have a look and news on the AV e collaboration or do I have any plans to visit the US I'm not sure if I'm going to make any trip to the US this year in terms of the a ve collaboration he indicated that he wants like an ax Arun and when I can get around to it I want to make him one there'll be a lot of fun so in terms of any news on it none really I'm just very short on time right now this making seventy five hammers has been a little bit of an interruption in the in the schedule and everything always takes so much longer than you want it to always everything is so time intensive every project its undertaken just fine and it's going to be great once once we're really into the swing of things of just doing the YouTube videos I'm really excited there's gonna be a lot of fun um wait can't wait make all sorts of fun projects Oh how many Damascus tools have I made fifteen and a half I don't know I don't know how many masses tools that made would you ever go on the show forged in fire how many times you reckon that questions been asked [Music] Sam three times an hour sorry that's probably pretty accurate yo what wait wait apparently Sam's losing weight it's probably just the lens burnt no actually in all honesty you probably are he only ate one marshmallow today HS he turned around as the ancients turned around I'm like hey Sam you know I call him for something new drugs are our half mouth looks pretty funny Wow there's no one here why don't I get all the nice things and then stuck with my Forge and my Forge coming apart hopefully want to spend a day next week and finish it like fix it because I'm going to going to Serbia and that's a problem if this Forge keeps getting worse but it's a great opportunity for me to let some more refractory cure so I think I'm going to try and rip the Forge apart maybe Wednesday next week and cast some more refractory [Music] super chat but the Zack oh thank you it just goes to me yeah YouTube will take some of the cut of it otherwise somebody said to get ahold of Jesse James that would be pretty cool Jesse James makes a Damascus steel 1911's which are pretty sick are you ready Sam Molly Chapman said have a beer on us well thank you very much I really appreciate it sadly I don't drink do you drink Bull Sam you don't really drink much do you sorry guys and sadly I don't generally do shop visits I really appreciate the donation how much of a donation was it how horrible is it for me to why I do really appreciate the donation but I don't generally do the shops of it it takes a picked up a lot of time and my work schedule like a part of part of doing all this stuff is your in and out steel supplier getting oxygen screws fixings that kind of stuff and so me knowing when I'm in the workshop to coordinate something like that is difficult I'm sure you can appreciate but no this I ordered a delicious pizza earlier I had a delicious pizza got Sam a delicious pizza and a wonderful oil donation there has funded Sam I would argue that it was probably an incredible meal tamarcus brick Morales got it we've done that's a cool idea Damascus bricklayers trowel that could be done it's feasible primates that's all so well thank you very much Shepard appreciate that very kind of you 1,500 people that's great wonderful having your hair and I drop my beeswax the striker let me shoot me there say strike questions help you how is it spelled cool cool how do you cool it I cool it in a feed wax and graphite solution the graphite not only mother it's re the beeswax cools it the graphite lubricates it but also means that so basically it doesn't get stuck quite easily and the beeswax helps carry the graphite into the hole that makes me sense okay we're all miss hot ramos ready to go right what else people saying Sam ah God Sam you take the stage shown the tattoo look at that that's all the rage when you got it wasn't it but at a time do you ever read the twitch comments or do you only read the YouTube comments well I tell you what I'm going to do right now is I going to open up twitch on this phone so I can hang out with the people that are on Twitch there otherwise we only have the YouTube app right let's have enough chat and we are now looking at the twitch chat exclusively here what kind of boots my both whirring down the whole idea was that nobody would see that today is the first day I'm ever not wearing cowboy boots oh honey I don't want to talk about my boots and I'm embarrassed I just spent the whole day without wearing cowboy boots these are just what do you call this type of food like combat like a pair of combat boots I was training this morning pretty good fun with the older self-defense groups in preparation for this Serbia trip and I thought I'd be efficient and just take one set of shoes you ready but let's not dwell on the fact that I'm not wearing cowboy boots for the first time however it doesn't matter just hit it harder no no harder I don't think you've understood okay and then like twice as hard let me just put my head right in line with where your hammer is come beautiful thank you Sam Wow let's take out the gh 5 fantastic go all the way around good fun using the Brazil hammer tongs which work Admiral eat lighter please as we go into the diagonals fantastic see it's been a good week when do we finish up the Hammers good morning Wednesday morning have a good wait-wait-wait so that's very satisfying to get those out of the way obviously apart from this this is out of the way soon I'm already pleased the the UK orderers I've already been receiving their hammers I've been getting some nice messages so I appreciate all of you guys I'm looking forward to hearing from the overseas people that ordered when that's when once they receive their thank you very much alik live in the same city as you guys can I send you stuff I guess you can people do because [Music] it's not impossible to find out where the workshop is I can have to do a video soon about all the stuff I've been receiving because I've received a flag every single day this week so there's going to be like a whole whole video about the stuff like I mean it's just been flags galore which which is great what is the pizza place it was zzs on tim land I ordered it through delivery and this was not a paid advertisement for delivery that would be handy them I should get a try and get a delivery delivery sponsorship good those that was easy thanks delicious sorry Oh wonderful with that Devon I'm very sorry to say I don't take orders and I'm not signing in my work currently I apologize very kind of you that you do want to buy a knife but very soon he does he bought himself the same microphone as me and spent how much less then he paid about half the price thanks it makes me feel real good that don't worry about it it's on Google I mean you can you can you can who is it you can block them for it as punishment Oh brick wall Damascus pattern at theoretically that's possible your please you've got to run a coke the coal Forge for the first time I'm sorry I can't pronounce your name I've never made any sort of box before somebody out there I'm pinching right you ready Sam OOP a lot of dragon's breath coming out is hot right you ready like sorry I don't know what to do getting this all backwards doing this in wrong orders wait yeah thank you I'm out of practice I haven't made a hammer as a striker in a while March 1st maybe the last completed completed hammer with the strike it's always good fun okay lighter thank you and hot again whoo give it a quick brush to go on the tops we're pretty good need to go a little deeper here actually no one here can you hit on my side of the top fuller great it's pretty close but we're now going to do is we're going to drive the drift we're gonna start forging out the cheeks I'll be very good which side am I going to go ahead and get in this side so what is next we can tell exactly thank you I've ever tried to make a Damascus Cutlass it's used by Jack Sparrow and that would be a great one that'd be a great sword to make this month because is there a new movie Pirates of the Caribbean there is I'm sorry I'm not I'm not quite up to date with Alistair it's cuz I had my face in a power hammer all the time or in Final Cut Pro editing videos I didn't mean to say face inner power hammers if I'm getting hit by the power hammer to clarify I mean facing the power hammer is if I'm working on the power hammer so I wasn't particularly aware of that but apparently there's a movie is this the first ever Pirates of the Caribbean I've never heard this with that Caribbeans in like a fit I'm out of touch I'm joking I knew that was fire to the Caribbean what's that what's the last one good luck dead men tell no tales is apparently the title of the movie see we can look up the dead men tell no tales Cutlass let's see see if we can find anything what if we can kind of people watching 1,500 great having all hair guys okay that's that's like a video game form that's not telling us anything I'm sure somebody can find us some info on that grooved grilling plate for steak that's a cool idea we're gonna cool off this bottom fuller so I don't burn myself when I pick it up there we go make sure that we're all set up here and I dropped it hey it's the first one for the Alex teal drinking game today and the second a lot of but you ready Sam step okay stretch drift itch my nose are you ready we had a focus yup it's tough another one to me wonderful so now I'm going to put a cupping tool in clean up the faces so we have as minimal grinding as possible laughs there we go release it now will turned upside down will go into the opposite side making sure that I know which one it is on the next team into the porch she goes when I'm hammering does it ever pick up any slag yes well I think I have a cold it doesn't necessarily pick up slag it slag usually refers to impurities that aren't in the steel itself that makes me said no for way of phrasing it again what I could explain is as follows the steel is oxidizing constantly and it continues oxidizing while it's forging in terms of picking up impurities it doesn't really because there aren't any impurities around here apart from the oxidation that is falling off the steel and that won't work itself deep into the steel what'll happen when you Forge your piece you can hammer the scale in it only goes in at a surface level and it can be ground out the reason I'm cleaning it is to make sure that the scale which is harder than the steel because it's an oxide it's very brittle doesn't get hammered in too deep to the point that I have to grind down a lot of the rest of the material to get past that that makes any sense the actual metal like people are talking about are people talking about the swords we found the sword great thank you very much I'm going to open that in my browser so this is kind of what it looks like Sam Cutlass interesting sorry long thin with a big like what do you call that thing on the on the handle handguard that's all right right you ready Sam [Music] right let's go thank you sow and now I'm going to go into this high spot in a boat into the middle we're creating three rid three valleys and four ridges here on this piece I'm quite happy to go ahead and pull this out will now release it in the cutting tool again I want to get this as clean as possible especially since we're gonna be grinding this on this show I want to make sure that I get that done as fast as possible then I really make sure that put a good effort in keeping that clean there we go ready Sam okay strike over to my left hand right we can release that I catch my nose again and we're going to go back in the Forge so hello from France who cross what also a called a lie have you my French is poor I can't think of what to say that so we will say nothing right so what I'm going to do now is I'm going to take a heat and I'm going to reduce the Trop lines ever so slightly after dropping it on the ground that's what makes your drinking game so we're going to go to the drop lines I don't need to heat it up massively I don't need to do too much work in the trough lines has taken club just looking at the time go measure masters my banker no no rust rust would happen rust would happen massively it would be cool out that Andale is hot but it would rust and it then wouldn't be cool in a very short amount of time is it possible to buy a shirt look in the description of the video there's a link you can go to straight to the straight to the merchandise sort merchandise store where indeed you can buy a shirt thank you for asking your anytime to make take care to me again thank you now we're going to hit the diagonals perfect lovely outstanding on the side here okay to me when I say to me I'm asking him to hit like this angle Wow get a little brush to you to you today yeah to me to you was there chuckle brothers lost them 95% of the audience I know it's a very small subset of how long were they on TV you you would have been why would you lie you saw the Chuckle brothers live what I went step how old were you what you met the Chuckle brothers at a club goodness gracious that's very funny why kind of spoils the what doesn't that spoil the image you have of the Chuckle brothers oh goodness gracious that is very funny ah right so this heat we're now going to be switching Fuller's we're going to using a larger fuller much wider so I'm going to set that up make sure it's ready you're also going to set up your marker marker thank you does he have a question are you kidding this is this is Ben now if you know the Chuckle brothers you'll understand well that's why you got to focus it hang on that's that Ben who's helping with the Chuckle brothers but what is this sign what is the hand sign they're doing Oh they've one of them got a cigar that's funny while you spoil my childhood memories of watching the Chuckle brothers I thought still to this day they'd be what moving furniture and dropping thing apparently no a shame yeah really they are haha how ready how close to ready are you sir this is like the second lost team this is where it gets important this is where the hammer starts to pop Sam you'll be looking this way because we're gonna be moving fast once we're ready go big fella please it's on the seat on the stool okay I'll get it thank you right strike hard please nice you've got a bias to me slightly perfect I'm going to work up you like - it's alright that's bad timing on my part I could have said it a little earlier no no harder come on Sam I'm joking no that's perfect no we're just planning it at this date so you're doing well we about to hit me in the head there yeah getting lighter badly planishing cleaning it up good stop we're gonna do one more here just to even out those lobes lovely and and and and and and well we can well we got internet we're gonna hit the trough line with the drift inside that supports them pretty well if I know where I put my fuller here we go let me come right there boom um there we go lovely look at that now we release in the capital this is starting to look like a style of hammer that Matt Marty used to make pretty cool here we go right over that have you been using that GoPro angle at all yeah okay make sure that with pretty Square and you adjustments they need to make not really so we're going to grab the big fuller that is a nice-looking shot isn't it like yeah that light is just crisping up all the edges wonderfully that's a high quality light feed right there whoo so now we flip it over and go to the other side now I'm also going to make sure that I don't oxidize this too much so as we get into these finishing stages a couple things I'm going to do to make sure that we're getting this to be as clean as possible turn down the fortune touch don't need as much heat for this and I'm going to pull it out not what it's yellow yellow baby when it's kind of a high orange not a lot of forging to do at this stage put the dripped in and do the same thing on the other side easy it's gonna be good good fun good fun even with talking this is going to be a sub one our hammer what does that saying how many times did you film your floor role before having the one you put in yesterday's blog well spotted I didn't Whitehead buttered the camera well spotted um I think I did I think that was the first take but I edited it a few different ways and ended up just doing the one little snippet Easter egg in the video rather than round putting the whole roll in because it was a little ridiculous and wonderfully childish I just I just had the urge to do a roll right then and so I set up the camera and I'm like well I can either just kneel down and talk to the camera or roll into the camera and then talk to it I wanted to roll in and start talking straight after the roll however I'm not quite I wasn't quite good enough for the role to be able to do that I need I need you to recover oh great why are we making a habit we're making a hammock because I just haven't made enough hammers lately I've just I've been having a desire I don't know why haven't made enough you know it's just been such a long time since I've made a hammer so I felt I needed to make one now the reason is is that in the last hammer order I miscounted buy one so we have one more to make that's why oh it's just pretty five actually this is a nice way to round it off isn't it Sam like you know that the production work and it just leaves a little bit of a sore taste in your mouth it's funny okay it leaves a little bit of a sore taste in your mouth once you just do the production work because it's tiring and you do the same process 70 times over this is a nice way to round it off because this is really fun really fun to do it this way I wouldn't want to do 70 this way Sam would you want to do 70 this way sorry that's all hey I paid everything for it hey I forgot I wasn't set up that's gh 5 out of battery don't worry about it we're about to go Ryan creepers said want to say thanks for the positive attitude even when you file sample the fans love you too ha thank you very much prime right you're any Sam here we go see it got a little more oxidized that I'd like my own fault poor planning what you wanted hello big one I'll grab it if it's not hot you can take it here we go let's go wrong way wrong way now checking I'm checking lovely yeah th5 doesn't have as good a battery life as there's other ones that horrible yeah it does yes wait what are you asking no it doesn't it's the body's are slightly different sorry guys with Justin cameras I filmed my videos with a Panasonic gh4 and with the live shows you also have gh fours used to have a Sony rx 10 - but it died I wouldn't blame it to be honest filming in this workshop you just want a you know poor camera like it could be on a beach somewhere no it's inside a grotty little workshop lighter please for existence to me please thank you very much [Music] yes you can read that one won't you do one open one their home to their service obvious this middle well thank you so much with his name joven Thank You Java and I really appreciate the donation Eric I'm sorry I I couldn't even hear it that well Eric energy bun penguin Eric joven van joven yeah no I know the Jo before I'm just trying to clarify the last bits sorry thank you Eric German I really appreciate it what oh it's me trying to hold a drift with that bad one sure the GoPro it was the GoPro shot I know good sorry gentlemen you got to grip this thing kind of weird hold onto it or you have you know like the person that's helping you out hold it that's always really helpful so I am passive-aggressively referring to you I apologize he was looking at pictures of horses on his phone we have another Damascus one though that's a good point right Sam you got to turn around we're almost ready need your help focus areas wrong we get much more better okay medium please video yeah lovely knock it off and now what I'm going to do and it's it's I'm going to do like a hobo normalize just I want to clean up the other things too what I mean by a hobo normalize is okay I'm going to let it cool down a little more is I'm going to heat it back up to just a read but there are some things I want to crisp up so we're going to do some really light blows here with a small fuller crisp that all up and then we're going to let it air cool and we're going to have an intermission once that's air cooling because we need to move all of this equipment inside the other end of the workshop set it up for the grinders because we're going to be grinding this finishing it keep shooting it handling it charring the handle and then round off its can be good fun it's going to be good fun fingering some more comments there doo-doo-doo did it what is going on twitch how are we all that what's going on in YouTube comments you guys have your intently reading them you make a sword break a dagger can you make a saw to break a dagger well we could make it a

that would be classed as some sort of prohibited knife evening so with with the serrations they could call it a zombie knife in which case is prohibited you're just North last bullet hopping on you can make a penknife or a zombie killer then you will be allowed to have it what part of the features that they talk about in on the website is stuff like serrations and green paint because we all know that green paint on a knife makes it three thousand percent more deadly as well as the text that says zombie slayer because zombie slayer text has caused so much pain the world think of the zombies -

sorry okay come on now Jean duct tape ah [Music] we've lost the jean duct tape I think at this point like the jean duct tape things getting a little stale so if we find it we'll shown somewhere somewhere yeah I don't know where it is but something something duct tape jeans printed on it which is pretty cool so that was wonderful hey John coffee has the same shirt on as us it's pretty cool it's all three of us a matching picture sorry what is not see oh the painting yeah that is I think that is John coffee it's wonderful sitting here though Ari yeah great I'll try and take care of it when I unbox it I try not to do my sharpie special make sure that you write on it no sharpie special Damascus glasses I really want to it be so difficult though like I don't know what I do what I like with plastic glass frames as far as I understand they heat them up it kind of stretch a little bit and you pop it in don't normally go a little lip all around the inside holder and try and pop mine out probably not no gluten you'd sorry occlusion you're not glued in no they pop in and out right yeah it's just that when you heat it up it's supple enough that it can issue with the Damascus ones is that wouldn't be able to work so I need to just sorry yeah you're shouting really loud as well Texas accent it kinda needs to be off the cuff to really be good if you watch my twitch streams you're familiar with my texting accents you know either I really put on the Texan accent once in a while like every other sentence okay Sam I think this is cold enough for us to take our seven-minute interlude so what we're gonna do everybody is we are going to show you the cookery video which is gonna be lots of fun you're going to see part one I'm making the kukri this is a video from what a month and a half or so ago it's a great video I think you're going to enjoy it and we'll see you in a second great hello welcome back to the workshop it's fantastic to have you here again so by popular request today we're finally at last gonna be making a kukri I've never made a cookery I have no idea how to make a cookery but I'm gonna try because that's what it's all about and I'm super thrilled that you're here to join me along the way thank you for watching I hope you enjoy [Music] so I'm forging this out into a rectangular profile before letting it cool down nice and slowly in the Forge then I'm gonna go ahead and hit it with the angle grinder 9 inch angle grinder with a hard disk take off all the scale bring it to true material before cutting it up into probably four or five pieces on the on the bandsaw [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] you so I have my four pieces of steel hair cut up they're the same length and I'm going to etch them or in them and stack them together but I got an issue here this is too small this is only about four pounds in weight I think once I draw this out and then make it into a kukri after doing that well this isn't going to be enough so what I'm also going to do is I'm going to stack up another billet of steel draw it out well that make it the same size weld it to this before drawing it out all together you [Music] [Music] [Music] they're usually one of the problems I have is not estimating how much material I need to take i'm not having enough material well that's actually the problem I had earlier when I decided to weld on some more material but right now I switched into the opposite problem I have way too much material so this what is meant to be a cookery it's going to be enormous it's got a huge [Music] [Music] my goodness I am exhausted what an awesome day massive amount of fun exhausting you have that had that great rush you have after a really long tiring exhausting day and the best thing is I've still got to go home and edit this video oh well thank you so much for watching this video I really hope you've enjoyed it massive amount of fun this is part one if you're watching in the future be sure to watch part two here otherwise this can be blank if you're watching today and of course go watch some other videos and hit this round thing and hit subscribe it's a blast as ever to be making videos as close to everyday as possible for you wonderful ladies and gentlemen I look forward to seeing you tomorrow as we move on to part 2 of this gigantic enormous Damascus steel cookery thank you for watching hello everybody we're back welcome I'm going to cool this the rest of the way down it's still a little toasty how are we all how do you enjoy the intermission I thought it was fun we set up we didn't like destroy all my camera equipment boys we destroyed all my camera equipment I didn't it was pretty good here is the hammer if you can't remember if you have goldfish like memory I'm pretty good I'm gonna go wider with it I think I think we good and yes it's great having you all here if you guys just shout out interesting comments at me I'm gonna start grinding and yeah let me know dinner yet how much more there is to say I'm going to start on the round side and I'm going to go to the flat I'm going to start with a 60 grit belt I'm gonna go 120 after that from there I'm going to go to a tries act and I do like to do a pretty good bit of finishing before I go to the heat treat that way I then have to do even less finishing after the heat treat which is which is good because I heat treat with a torch we do a flame hardening for super easy you know we're using a 1040 steel this is en8 I really like using this steel now if I had access to it I would probably prefer 1045 but what was he doing my glasses [ __ ] my head and I'd rather use 10:45 but there is a perk to the em8 the 10:40 steel and that is because it does have a little less carbon it makes the heat treating process super easy because it's such a stable material even once it's hardened I will I got to do is I've got a hardened it and that's it I'm not having it my hammers chip I really hope nobody else's have but which is pretty good a large number of them have left like this and I like the way it works really nice simple heat treat as far as I understand a lot of hammers in industry even when they are made of the of the 1045 stories that's what they do you know the Industrial shops in Germany and China freakin hardened the thing leave it as is so it works great for me and please that it's working well for them so that's that's all a positive all a positive especially because it's such a wonderful readily available material the 1040 in this country 1045 in the US is equivalently available it's used for kind of engineering applications where they need a tougher steel it's used in hydraulic rams a lot so hydraulic rams often a 1045 material and works well nice and easy to forge obviously I use different materials for obviously different tools you've seen me use 4340 when I'm making other tools which is a tougher steel much harder to work has better resistance at higher temperatures which is why it's so useful on like a punch or a fuller or something like that but let's do some grinding I've had enough of talking because I'm just going to start rambling I was really rambling about what ten minutes ago ah and your intermission you're able to get a drink I wasn't so you get some water on board and we're gonna get back to work and make sure to wear a respirator what I do this of course Sam has his respirator on so did then what that's right I don't know how well you can hear me if I shout you want to have a listen see if you can see if they've been here but I'm gonna start given this or well put it inside don't be hover you just yeah exactly where I put the hammer rather I didn't drop it thankfully how many of you dropped in there Sam only the one very impressive okay so this is a sixty grip did you hear that they weren't it'll cut down these sennheiser mics adjust to it pretty well well they know how to use a volume control button come on I'm least going to give you guys the respect of thinking how to use a volume to drop on it'll be fine on the twitch streams I haven't had any problems with it what tends to happen with this microphone is that is the term condense I think it condenses it down is that little I know what any really high noise is kind of get dropped off if they done compressed if they don't then sorry it's gonna be loud there we go hello my name is Alec just a minute speaking about Oh save up then so I'm gonna grind on the round side of Chanukah take out the corner [Music] I bet right here on the mouth there's a slight bit of a black belt which means I can finish this off generators are wrong by walking all around it for the walk [Music] I'd set it or even with Jeff to be a little more here wonderful let's go have it you can actually have it that is incredible and I step onto the flat side and I hold it kind of up and I want to make sure that it's flat but it also cried growing the face with the body of the hammer [Music] then I drop it down only when mr. faces welcome to the North Face square root and even [Music] now if I ready for these edges it means that if left light blue [Music] of farm I on a second did you put all those back in there earlier did you put those back in there earlier not you this is me I thought that kicked one out oh I lost it I feel lost again later people wanted more dropping of things that gas is that right sorry guys the reason I'm registering the faces is that once you start using it the less likely to put junk camelmart in first times when you want helmet so times like it does yes found it and this is to make sure we don't ever have a lot victim better avoid that so it'll really heavy rail whole time I'm looking sexy for pretty happy with that you know ultimately I have to work to a certain 7/4 level at the pamphlet to keep it all perfectly flat which is impossible and all these soft line does so much going on you try and get it as perfect as possible only to draft out a pretty good average that way there and it's pretty good but a miracle shipping out salmon hammer Saturday though I need to cool this down slide it so Sam if you could do me a favor while I'm changing belts if you just hold this in the bucket wonderful madam applause for Sam Fowler himself Matt in the bucket oh it's always good once you're using your respirator right as you're done with the respirator yeah yeah we good once but what's interesting is these pick it up really loudly like if you just scuffle your feet in my ears it you know that's that's how the electronic inventors get what's they sayin oh yeah always smart when you're using a respirator right when you're in the vicinity of all the dust that you're trying to not inhale you take the respirator up straight away and take a nice deep breath deep breath of it it's always really smart it's not that's bad head on with all the communication so I'm now moving up to 120 this is a worn out 120 ah I don't have much strength in my hands just pushing this bring down as bad that's pretty it's all pretty fun I'm gonna do the same thing again on 120 grit the exact same moves except I'm removing less material and I'm really focusing on making sure that it's all good and perfect Sam all good in the comments any super chats no like no no more super chats interesting things people saying questioning okay guys you need to work on this if Sam's going no that's not good enough let's work on it let's get some great comments burn otherwise I don't know what I'm going to say goodness gracious I should probably go back to work [Music] so I form a flap around much more aggressive in flat remit to landfilling to will have extracted from the former grip now up to the slats out right at the hole along keep watchin watchin watchin how many zeroes in the house [Music] having you live to come around card table flat not it off under the goggle for after the five little crafts that are beautiful whoa that on the final pal I've gone to the side this is where we poke it most and see that I did crown that lovely shuffling never done that's 120 grit looking good now going to switch over to a tries act this is a 400 good equivalent that doesn't have fun dollar polishing up a little bit you ready here we go I turn down the speed a little bit on this a slowly blend blend blend all the way around [Applause] I like it off Martin Michael Nathan lovely now I took a flat tire hammer I'm going to die now start again [Music] a bomb may only consider wealthy on lovely [Applause] the more coffee of Oregon you've been ground I dare say she's looking fantastic too when you were using about yeah well the air smell in the air yeah you should really wear a respirator what would this belt yeah that's a nasty smelling belt let's try Zacks dance not good at all it's just actually pretty handy because it really reminds you that you've got to wear a respirator which is pretty useful okay I forgot to let you know about this let's try and shuffle this back I got to use a die grinder yep simple so I'm gonna be using a die grinder here with a carbide burr you can always use a strip of sandpaper for this for the die grind a so much easier this was one of their this is one of the greatest tools I bought in my shop it's an electric die grinder if the company paid me loads of money I'd love to tell you who makes it I'm joking I'll take it makes it it's made by Makita I've enjoyed it so I will be using this here's the carbide burr see people don't know what to call our bearers Thank You carbide burr right there die grinder cheap - I think I paid like a hundred bucks for it spend an inexpensive tool that'll get you out of a lot of pickles all over the actual birth no no no the whole thing like you're quiet yeah you got you got that burr look like a good bird if you're going to buy a bar don't get a cheap bar get a good burr spend like 30 to 50 bucks on it it's worth it okey-dokey now drop it great it'll be fine I'll be able to fix that on the final stage so and lock that down and then take this and I'm radius seeing the inside corner of the eye [Music] you [Music] there we go nice thing about carbide bars is they send loads of really nice little sharp it's a metal right into your arm before I just walk up a wise way I took them all took the GZ yeah but I've got blown up down the airline yeah you're not allowed to because your air embolism life is over I want to say something to those of you concerned about our airline because I bought the cheapest quality nozzle I could get it's literally coming out of a quarter in troll there is not enough pressure coming out of there too heavy that's sorry you're saying to the mall another next day to finish light next day I walked into the bathroom stood on about three filings for what the tiny tiny ones because I just took the g's off in the bathroom funny yeah they're bad that bad mallet just good question yeah classes online classes come a bit viewed offline no you can only stream the online classes I don't need this anymore whoa have I been talking really loudly in intermission in the intermission Sam had his uh his hearing hearing defenders on uh-huh and we're chatting and I'm like yeah send you mind just grabbing that light and he's like oh hang on just pull it up a little this way put a little last way as we move the cart of equipment where I know and he's like poor little is way pull it last way you see my my mug of water how it goes I do the same thing when I have the hearing protection on what it's pretty funny whew we got our oxygen I just get the wide one pointed in this direction will do the will do the Alex deal Sam Fowler special here with the heat treat Sam and I have got this down to a fine art so long as it goes well yeah yeah so long as you don't drop it Magette without doubt oh there goes a HDMI cable EEP ouchy what wait so confused okay we're good golden just do this no wonderful look at it [Music] like what no ah yeah how do I have flaming dice I have flame making devices yes I do indeed have the flame making device device here we go now I've said it properly that's proper German proper Germans don't say a V must be pronounced device well this thing is hot right you ready oh and do the flat side first shhh it's the smearing protection on these things are actually pretty loud always knocked it off here we go the Alex deal Sam Fowler special soles it how long until you make a hammer with a bottle opener hammer with a bottle opener it's most things hammer follow oh I thought you meant forging the hammer with a bottle oh no but I made it with with a with a friend of mine in France who's a blacksmith we made a bottle opener that was literally like this big I'll have to dig up the photo someday and it's even better because I'm like this tall at the time it's a horse head bottle opener that's like that big was enormous and I was thinking well I guess we could swing something like that as a sledgehammer right here we go [Music] I mean 900 days off booze kind of feels like I've done this before [Applause] Wow really does I don't know why it feels like I've heated hammer faces with torches before but five four three two one so while he cooled that down when we're doing the production work I usually heat up another face keeps it really nice and efficient but now I just get to hang out with some fire because fires cool and Sam does all the hard work he finds out whether the buckets leaking or not yeah right where there's a leak in the bucket oh it's much easier to get us even heat on the round say I did a flat first five four three two one Jessie fans donated $20 Wow Thank You Jessie I appreciate it Jeff solitudes I was wondering if you would think about making Damascus pry bars Damascus pry bars that's a cool idea it's already the Masters toughest awesome tool just to make a handle that's a very cool idea to the samurai carpenter I love all these wonderful suggestions there isn't there a trend small pry bars like small EDC pry bars that you keep in your pocket never heard of this I think this is a trend there's a necklace a new it's the new it's the new fidget spinner on the back of a spoon well Sam I'm like I leave it as you say I'm knocking like you I don't walk around with a spoon everywhere so people are gonna think I hate you there we go notice how everything like quiet after I said that when he's like yeah like I really hate you it's all good come on uncle Manuel I know it's terrible under his breath you're gonna hear okay right right let's turn around here you didn't do this before quit on his and I wasn't meeting this is the course going to start with the course here now this is an awesome thing I talked about this the other day this is like a mop it's got similar like scotch-brite pads except a little more aggressive and it's stacked all the way around this it's just I got it oh wait no we're on manual focus I don't know how much they're gonna enjoy this view it's literally just gonna be the rear of me over there okay good wait this is a course one if if you pull that wrench over so I'm hearing my echo if you grab that wrench in the draw oh wait no it's over here it's right there so I rather thank you very much found it now be able to the wheels over here we go [Music] nice thing is it cuts right through this scale from the hardening so easily very aggressive the relatively expensive about 20 pounds a wheel thirty bucks will stuff over there a godsend you know especially when it's the production work time is the most costly see this is what I dropped it earlier when I dropped that earlier I made a dent so I gotta fix that I'm gonna come over to the Tri Zach belt and grind that out if you're on this you on this hang on you see that little dent right there that's the dent that I made when I dropped that earlier and I'm like oh yeah it'll be okay no I dropped it right where it doesn't want to be dropped and probably more so I'm going to put my respirator on we're about to cut those leads watch out there twisting a lot all right yeah let's just hope that was awake a good so there's a snicker club nearby just and it's like a 24-hour thing and they're playing really obnoxious music it's not it's actually pretty nice it'd be nice if you were there it sits there playing a blues scale doom doom doom derivative it'll be dooma Doomba Doomba Doomba Doomba Doomba Doomba Doomba which would be great except it's happening all night and which neighbors would have some consideration this is ludicrous do they play that while you're on the power hammer it's going to be soft but well it's gonna off put my rhythm you know what's so key when you're working on a power hammer it's the rhythm working with the Machine and if those people making noises you can't do it so it's bad I'm really sad I think I should complain to something about all the obnoxious noise that my neighbors are making it's terrible sometimes I hear a fan on next door and you know it really grinds my gears really does I wish people would be much more considerate about the noise oh sorry someone's lost another channel works well over here Edward is discussing temper temper your temper what is wrong with your temper I'm just angry no I mean see the steel tempeh I discussed that earlier it won't listen well then go back in time and listen bitte bitte bitte how do you handle venting combustion gasses do spoil your full chance to the shop it is outside the shop would be near a very wide-open door and have a carbon monoxide detector has the noise stopped no rats blue house [Music] because we're really concerned about health and safety here all right I found I'm going to keep the respirator on I cam back to this Sam is very familiar with this you've only done that what 100 and 250 times in your life you reckon how many times what is it three steps that you do you also use this one five steps five rush oh yeah this one won't need the wire brush because it didn't get rusty it's just good because I didn't leave it in a puddle of water I don't have a particularly watertight roof mm-hmm is a medium drip I really appreciate you making sure that these wear evenly - like right here you've done a great job for that without your horseshoe no this here I'll open there's a square sort of how that was the square edge of the house oh my goodness I don't know I'm hot do you know Sandra fingers yes hold on I'm part of a manicure process not accidental manicure maybe doo-doo-doo-doo I'll now be a very fine on this I think they wanted to charge me 40 quid each wheel this time luckily they then applied a discount in it which is wonderful but these things aren't cheap they are so good they leave a beautiful satin finish whoo they look beautiful Multi pocket so I'm going to take that towel that I had in the other room and I grab some linseed oil ah and I want to use that towel because it's quite an aggressive towel which means that did you know that towels very and aggressing this one's a pretty aggressive town that's a couple things in this show huh forge is pretty cold there I am trying to be healthy and all I'm trying to do is wait so will not on air there's a funny distinction to make while I was doing a twitch stream the other day I was here at the shop and I was really hungry I did give in I could give in give in while on the stream and did people did see me eating a few graham crackers graham crackers graham crackers and rice crackers just switch camera can you please Ben so what I guys I got some linseed oil in here oh goodness what's he doing this is on my new folk city slickers reject what is he mad a little there we go you'll see you Oh terrible yeah so with this I can look good little work around this is nice I like this slower way of making a hammer just for the one I wouldn't want to get what's he done someone's may have annoyed resident this is why I'm from next door sorry about the noise I want to add in case anybody the in case there's one guy out of the 1300 1400 people watching that's like what a weirdo was he annoyed at his neighbor's isn't here blacksmith doesn't he make loads of noise I would like to add I'm being completely facetious just because I know one of you is not understood that at like the rest of you you're great and if you didn't understand that you're still great I mean I can trace a car we say you're not yeah you're watching this video you must be I hope you haven't melted this - here it is phone on the animal that we're heat treating on make sure these are off wonderful there we go look at that beautiful finish some boiled linseed oil that's steel marbles don't no doubt on what's next but what's next just don't leave a linseed oil soaked rag on a propane bottle I got to make a handle so I'm going to set that down gently what I put that handle wonderful got Lee Sam wonderful you almost wireless almost your home is why yeah apart from the wire it's very expensive cable I bought when we first are doing life is that be really cool and then we have no useful yeah you bought a 4k capable cable which would be great if added that bandwidth for it there's no fan turns yes exactly and also because the Panasonic gh4 what I'm just like you yeah he's I cannot again and you're gonna live stream from home no sky cubes I can do 4k TV Oh fancy now I got my 4k TV if you want to buy a forge to support Sam's 4k TV go to forge Barnes comm links in the description below that about covers it and we get great we good okay bye what am I looking for are you wish alarms getting a little wittle tired little bit wibbly-wobbly yeah is this sharp but oh this is even sharper like that there's something literally just bio-forge that was a t-shirt okely-dokely yeah yeah that is tiring I really wish the person that a design this grinder had utilized a little bit of a little bit of leverage thinking man what's that is it my friend my rear end I'm sure I get this one get back okay okay no like this cuz you only yeah that's better I was actually about done talking okay this your mother was I saying oh the grinder could have been designed better is great majorly why honestly there's a welder right here and I have enough material that I could just like weld on a handle right there oh well you see I just rather complain about it then actually solve my problem that makes any sense now that part should just be inferred you know anytime anything's complained about like yes I know there's one person that really thought I was upset that my neighbors made any sort of noise so much so they had to mention it down oh no that that person was joking but there was somebody that's like I'm unsubscribing right now he is so unsought phul an empath etic doesn't he realize that he's a blacksmith and he makes noise I think I own 10 pairs of hearing defenders just scattered round sure I I understand I make noise all right we're going to make a make a handle and you know what when you make wood dust it's also great idea to have a respirator on that's always smarter fit on the floor your hearing detection will get that will make it through the evening it's very good Sam has to go back yeah Oh Sam Sam of the confess Richard already what do you need to confess I've no idea hang on something happened earlier you know when I was trying to be like me and Sam I've got this nail down to an R yeah so I go oh my not away for the camera where we go yeah can you see me did you drop it right to the survivor the bucket so why do you good whilst you were sitting on the polish of my love right up my phone and put him the cameras saying I hit the cap the bucket I should have really read that read that in my mind what does he mean has to confess you can leave that's that pretty funny but this is that you have to eat a pie you have to order one but oh this is obviously an animal show and I don't choke child show children pony show and accidents happen and I apologize for my poor language a little bit no that's okay we've all slipped up Barca you just got to eat two pies as your penance you're happy with that I can deal with that yeah he could deal with that [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] this is the easiest way to have your fingertips [Music] they're not [Music] my headphones run out of battery [Music] it's making the car loud beeping noises OH they went on a fat-free so now in a form the shaper Maps this safer to the drift [Music] good night now I feel massage [Music] with a profile I want to the kind of philosophy here is match the wood is much like the drift is possible with camera Leon [Music] so this is no it's stopping right now this is why I'm a little bit of a trap a little bit of a sore what I do is if I makes it exceptionally looking at it sooner I need to hit the material to get it get a fit as possible there's a couple to the cow corn and hair horses it bounced super-aggressive was sitting at this table [Music] and have a mole isn't city good I give it a turn [Music] and I'm not get off you wanna contact them the mole [Music] a little bit off the end beautiful unlike that [Music] [Music] I'm not going to cut a [ __ ] I'm also going to cut a wedge from a piece of ash and then I'm going to have this belt still on there finish the wedge then I'm going to finish this so I'm going to be over at the bandsaw here buh-buh-buh-buh-buh buhbuh band for thank you packet we got a knife use a flash here so this is little thing of ash thing of ash is very precise I'm basically going to take like a quarter inch of width hold an angle and go straight and get a wedge that's hopefully about an inch and a half of lawn or so down to nothing right so I'll turn this on guess who's real smart and doesn't plug in his band saw earlier you are come on it's stuck underneath the propane bottle and around okay see if I can get it first time sometimes when you practice a little [Applause] that's pretty good I'm going to make an extra just in case I snap it so I've never snapped never snapped a wedge before have I Sam [Laughter] now going to cut the [ __ ] they're about an inch and a half a lot Oh sir take my time [Music] from a lot make adjustment [Applause] [Music] there we go now we come back over to the grinder turn this on to finish the wedges don't do this at home the great let's get rid of the fingertip you're a bank robber someone fingerprint do this I wanted to fit in their sight the one more so one set Abuk we have a slight taper to it that the not mouth at the corner of our credit slip as easily as a friend to this one that fast thumbs up [Music] okay [Music] I'm now going to throw a 120 grit belt on that couple F of zirconium go back and throw up that did it it is Thank You Pandey you suggested you shot back to hold small pieces that's a cool idea or magnet I could use a magnet on that wait what a magnet wouldn't work on wood are you kidding me and I thought all things were magnetic so did I huh strength that's weird there you go I don't know I guess these are still on because I can still hear you so they beat really loudly in my ear for nothing maybe we're signifying that it's a low battery just two more batteries for this buffer better have an itchy ear there we go your cards coming in Sam Gibbler what I magnin on try magnet on with that smart would matter would make it slowed down a little bit going up [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] fantabulous we good we good okay so now what I'm going to do is I'm going to have your I can do this myself actually I need to help you're not needed Sam you sure had enough you sure I'm sure my boy no I don't reckon I'm going to need your help what's that please responding to reports of an has been hit relations on London bridges in London Oh Oh God check that amateur compilation scene that's no fun it's very sad live anything well just they just do did a little white think of this you walk by right okay so first thing I'm going to do here get a little bit of oil on the outside of the handle what that'll do a little bit of linseed oil that'll lubricate it as it goes in so I stopped very whoa whoa little glitch there start with a very gentle tap and I just progressively hit harder and harder harder making sure that we're square the whole time there we go temple look I just got to make sure that it's all where it needs to be trouble is be warned wear glasses when you do this because you get oil sprayed all over you it's kind of annoying sorry but Sam is paid in smalls you have a small weight you've never eaten a small not here oh my goodness have you even one in your life this year's like all within a 10-minute window so it kind of works out to be a s'more inside okay great give it another two hard blows probably I think one more condone see if it can stop with this now yeah she's great now this is why I radius how much can you see there we go this is why I radius the inside of that I just on the side that the handle goes in because if you don't you get this tear out all the way around and if you get a lot of this terror it'll stop the handle advancing up the piece which can be very bad because what I want to do is I want to compress the wood as much as possible fill as much of the steel as possible and get a really nice tight high friction fit now if that's if there's a step created because it cuts in rather than feeding the wood in as you drive it that's a problem because I'm not going to get the compression inside the where matters all I'm gonna get is a little ledge what was there Sam you should seriously market the s'mores s'mores dude send every Forge out with a small pack that's the way to do it okay so now what I'm going to do is I'm going to take my wedge see where that's going to end up it ends up almost at the bottom of the almost at the bottom of the hammer head if it goes all the way down there and it probably will there's a nice tight fit okay what I'm gonna do to make sure so basically I want to make sure that this wood wedge stays in there my philosophy it's a poor use of the word my thinking on hammer handling is has changed over time and evolved but basically that I go as follows if I can make a hammer handle fit with a wooden wedge nice and tightly I want to do that if it doesn't quite fill it all up the way it should be and get it as tight as possible then I'll use a metal wedge but I consider ideal just just just just just the wood wedge because then it always allows the contingency of there being a metal wedge inserted after the fact if indeed there's like a massive climate change you know you go from super humid non humid then you can always put a metal wedge in but even if there is a metal wedge in you can always drive it in a little further and plenty of things you can do to tighten that up should that ever happen so as it gets a little deeper in there I'll gonna flip it over because I can then use the anvil itself and I'll gently drive it hopefully without cracking it or splitting it you know eventually as you get tighter you'll usually get a little bit of a crack in there just fine I'm going to do one more hard one no it can do one more nice one more you know every time you say one more and then like a problem happens like right after you say one more thankfully this wasn't that time but both times happen this time it actually is went great so that's a wonderful thing to hear because that's a really tight wedge I can now wipe off all the smoo all the wood glue there we go lovely what does that timer at now considering all the chatting and the hanging about on I call that great ah wonderful so now what I want to do is I'm going to grind a radius into this right here oh don't can you see me very much where am i being filmed is it there yeah wait that looks really nice color on it too is really this is that's a nice color so I'm going to grind like a concave into the end of this I'm going to bring it down a little bit makes it attractive I also kind of round it off in this direction too with the concave and I do that on the small wheel of my belt grinder can I keep this hammer you just want to do another count Sam and make sure that they're all gone sure because I think I think I think I might need to keep this are you going to try and dig out what we may have spare [Music] now that's a label Chad don't show them it too long they'll zoom in you can zoom in that one so I think we have one spare oh look there's a hammer we might have one spare hammer I'm not going to say anything more about the spare hammer or sell it or anything yet just because do you want to give them a sneak peak is that you're trying to do just showing the end the end of the handle teasing them I'm not going to say anything more about it or decide to sell it just for a little while oh no you have to work it out in no rush here's a nice one don't send messages there's also there's also the short handle one that I'm saving that might be a trade with a friend that's cowboy photos Aaron come for Erin camp at mana for a half pounder is sexy well I need a four and a half of a swimming competition see you mean a foreign half pound sledgehammer we don't make this wait yeah but shoemaking come Royal Norfolk yeah and make a cool vlog yeah what day is it what is it there's a 20 we could tell people you're doing it we probably get a load of people can stop by yell until they get those anyway fun no but I mean like people are gonna see you they're gonna be like some Paola I'm sorry not yeah but I don't know much fun everybody does he sign up on up he signs up for a shoe making competition cos it won't practice I'm Tom - gorgeous Sam signing up the [ __ ] making competition without practicing and respirator okay everybody proud on the chesty tip off I'll wear a GoPro on the we go on the top what I don't know [Music] ah there you go anyway right do a little torching give it a little blackening crack now shiny - where do you want a nice sharp rasp have all right ha ha it's in the van want me to get that yes please would be great next time need to tweak the handle slightly it's got a little bit of a two-day-old fusion it's very sharp until it gets into my workshop in which case a blunt in it so there's a slight count to the handle just ever so slightly so what I want to do is I'm going to then take a rasp and they're going to file those flats and then radius it over so that it feels a little more natural with how it is Sam doesn't like me using his rasps because it wears them away you have a burn mark along the backside of your handle I don't understand that but when am I gonna be taking hammer orders again I I have no idea I honestly I'm probably I'm going to be doing it like I did if I ever make hammers in the future it's probably gonna be like okay I can make ten and I'll let you know when they're off on the website something like that so I don't count on any time soon be having hammer orders up thank you sir this is such a sharp wrath wow this one brand brand you know that's the one that you use less okay so this is like dollars hell right checking it's still sharp I said dollars hell then I said joking now I didn't know no no swear word okay well ma'am you've never said a swear word in your life have you Sam this is actually way dull hung it was when I last used it I don't know why the Damascus he made on that horseshoe on his YouTube channel was pretty cool I don't even know how you did it do you a nice sharp ruff is a wonderful way to shape a handle whatever has a hammer that you don't quite like the feel of man that's nice nice good horse shooting right get you it you sort of that view there mmm do the same right now sorry Oh is there another one go on block it John oh thank goodness it works am so what seems to happen when one there gets a certain number of viewers is silly people think it's super cool and try and copy your profile photo and put Alec steals their channel name and then comment on it which is pretty ridiculous it's a sad way of getting attention it gets the attention because I talked about it but there are little better ways of getting noticed [Music] go and a nice shop Rus also finishes it off very nicely and one more touch up here does leave a nice surface finish wonderful Sami ready - you ready for the charring yeah don't don't don't are you help me out with it yeah ok he sat there on his phone just really enjoying
