These are some of my favorite videos, no words. The craftsman with his tools and the artist with their camera angles tells the whole story
Over the years I watched you make handles for various tools and you just keep getting better and better. I always enjoy them. Thank you.
Even though Cody may never admit it, he's an artist. His work, these videos, seemingly everything he does is a work of art.
Reminds me of the old vids that I subscribed for in the first place.
+Jordan Peck ^^ This.
A wonderful work of art Cody. I love the attention to detail and the palm swell on that hammer is beautiful!
Sometimes you are a bit preachy, sometimes I find your series go on a bit too much but my god you know how to make a handle making video. Love how relaxing, interesting and accessible you make this seem. You have turned it into a pleasure.
It might sound silly but, simple videos like that make me feel peaceful.
Thank you for sharing your time and for the care you put in to your work.
I'll say this again .... This is so relaxing to watch! Well done Cody!
I think this is one of your best videos. Less talk and all action. Your explanatory notes helped with the less talk part and the music was great. Don't get me wrong. I'm a fan. I'm not for no talk, just less. Thanks.
It is a pleasure to see the impact Casey Niestat has had on your film making. I enjoy your work. Thank you
+Mike Hammack thank you
Nice bit of dual artistry in both handle design and film; lovely to watch.
Different but interesting without music. You become better and better in filming with every video!
"power tools?! Cody dont need no stinking power tools!"
You know I when back and watched the back to basics series and it was just as good now as it was then; It's hard to believe how the channel has grown since then. Great video.
It was very relaxing watching the handle take shape. The whole process was very enjoyable, it really takes the edge off the stressful day.
Thanks
There are times in life that does not require a Play by Play; Thanks
The art of craftsmanship speaks for itself
You know I when back and watched the back to basics series and it was just as good now as it was then; It's hard to believe how the channel has grown since then. great video.
Great video! I could watch videos like this all day for some reason.
Somebody watched Diresta's fireman's axe video...
These videos are great. I prefer just watching and hearing the natural sounds without having everything explained. So relaxing. Thanks :)
This really helped to put me in a state of peace when needed this afternoon. Perfect timing. Thank you Wranglerstar!
+Seth Thomas Thanks Seth.
I'm so glad you posted this, I'm a stonemason and I just bought a new 3lb hammer head from Trow & Holden I didn't care for the handles they sell I prefer about an 8 1/2" long handle and want to make my own, this video has given me the inspiration and motivation to do so......just gotta find some hickory stock. Thank you
Don't get me wrong. I enjoy most of your videos..and I especially like ones like this, with no dialoge. Quiet and thoughtful story telling...well done
Simply elegant.
Glad you reminded us of the proper species of wood too use on a wooden handled lever tool Cody, thanks. I heard some people use Ash, for even much longer, more stressed swinging type tools. Ash is great for a perfectly straight handle, But no other hardwood splits more easily. It's splitting properties are very similar to cedar. Great job. Thanks for sharing Cody
Ash has been used in Europe for thousands of years for tool handles. Only in recent years we've been getting American hickory. The hickory is stronger but some traditional tool makers still prefer Ash, I'm not sure if European ash and American ash are the same.
Yes, we know this. It was a reference to an inside joke. We have white ash and black ash here in the adirondack mountains. I own a sawmill and actually sell white ash, or swamp ash. Most black ash goes to making large and small baskets and backpacks and such, very flexible when beaten to a pulp. Yet super strong and long lasting.
+HOSSMCGILLICUTTI I'd like to know where on the West Coast he's getting the hickory. Maybe by mail from the east?
+HOSSMCGILLICUTTI Thanks Hoss, (fraxinus excelsior) common ash is found across Europe, from the Artic circle to Turkey. It's the most common tree in the British Isles but is currently under threat from disease.
its great for furniture, tool and sports handles. It also makes the perfect firewood, it burns hot for a long time and you can burn it green. I still don't know the difference between our ash and yours as we only have the one here as a native tree.
Ya east coast. Probably Not Tennessee, hate to say it but thats a sales gimmick. But, they have big fir and western pine. Big red Cedar.
I liked this video a lot. It was a good change of pace. I love the usual stuff on the channel, but every once in a while, the move back to something quiet and simple is refreshing. Thanks for the content!
Great video Cody, letting the craft itself do the talking... beautiful work.
Love these quiet tool-making vids Cody. Beautiful job for a nice little hammer handle.
Great video super nice handle true craftsmanship at its finest
Beautifully shot and edited. The audio quality is awesome as well, I enjoy the relaxing sounds of the woodshop.
I had a wooden spokeshave just like yours, with the worn down concave area in front of the blade. It was usable in this condition, but took some mighty thick shavings if I wasn't careful with it.
I cut a notch into the beech wood to remove the section of the wood that was worn out and inlayed a new piece of hardwood to repair the area, it cut much better after that!
Love this video style. I dig the talking ones also, but this one was just a pleasure to watch from start to finish. Well done.
Beautiful work. I admire your ability to do such work. Not a word said just the actions of your hands and tools. Simply beautiful
These kind of videos are so enjoyable. Watching you work with wood is fantastic.
+PyroShim totally agree
You have a real talent when it comes to making these handles. I am always amazed when I watch you widdle away at a blank and turn it into such a beautiful and purposeful creation. God has blessed you in more ways than you know!
Loved the video, thanks. Any chance you could tell me/us who that was singing, it would be greatly appreciated.
I really like the silent video...simple and classy. Btw just finished the book "Modern Homesteading. I really enjoyed getting to know all of you through it. I especially enjoyed walking with you through the story of your spiritual journey. Special kudos to Mrs.Wranglerstar on the book.
What a pleasurable 4 minutes! Thanks for the video.
silent craftsman theater. I do love these vids, thank you.
I love your videos! there is something really poetic about it, the music of the intro, the way you work with only hand tools, like a really traditional way. I really appreciate this about all your videos.
Thx for sharing!
Camera angles are perfect in this video!
Beautiful craftsmanship, Cody.
+Alvin Dueck Thank you Alvin.
getting pretty artsy fartsy with these videos now... lol nice job looks great!
sweet palm swell, you made it look so easy too! nicely done mate
Lovely little hammer, nice handle . looking forward to more blacksmithing videos from you ;) thanks for posting ...
Very enjoyable video, thanks for posting it. I enjoy the peaceful stories from time to time.
I'm so glad I watched this one. Thank you.
I was looking on how to hand form a hammer handle, and I have the exact same tool, and also a vintage Stanley X3C spoke shaver. I have never used either, as they were inherited from my Dad when he died recently.
I think I'll use my little 25cm bandsaw to get the initial shape.
Very smooth and relaxing. Thank you. Just what I needed for my lunch video. I enjoy all your videos but this and your getting back to basics(? The video where you square and joint a log using the traditional tools) are my favorites. Thank you.
there is such beauty in work like this, Thanks Cody!
You would almost think you have done that before. :) Great job, thanks for sharing!
I like to see these type's of videos from you simple to understand. like " Something from nothing" or "How to make a leather axe sheath" .
Inspiring! I love these videos! Thank you for taking the time to produce them. I have learned so much from you and your family.
Wood-shop projects are officially back.
That was a work of art. Nice job
Thanks for the video my brother 🙏 love it
Good one Wranglestar. Thank you.
Of all the videos you've done, Cody, this one is among my favourites. It reminds me very much of the Neeman Tools videos, which I adore. Simplicity is sometimes the greatest beauty.
Thank you for sharing.
Great video, the simplest ones are always the most inspiring. Is there any need to use the same wood species for the wedge or can it be any harder wood? i.e could you use a contrasting walnut?
Iv actually read that a softer wood IE poplar is a better choice as softer woods bite more and will expand more when linseed oiled.
+Cameron McPeak Poplar is not a better choice than Hickory or say Ash,
(IE poplar) meaning a wood a bit softer than the handled wood. This will allow the grain from the handle material bite into the wedge for a higher friction hold. Now of course the only difference would probably be that a hardwood wedge may bounce more upon installation. And that a softwood wedge fills the voids between the handle and wedge better. Its really more personal preference than anything.
also a little handle hack. if you use a contrasted piece of wood for the wedge like walnut or poplar (Poplar works fine if you use a good quality wood) not the crappy ones you usually use in handles. the contrast between the two woods will help if you need to remove the wedge for some reason, because you can see the different color shavings.
Beautiful video!
Very nice, I half expected it to be aluminum from the billet in the title. I guess that was probably mil spec aerospace grade billet hickory though ;) That was a really nice format for a nice quick video while I have my morning coffee.
+Widget Works Manufacturing Inc. Thank you. The term billet does not only apply to aluminum,
+Wranglerstar Very peaceful video. I loved it.
love this kind of video peace and quiet
Excellent video! Currently restoring a True Temper roofing hatchet and this is exactly the style of coke bottle handle I had in mind. I'll be using birch, as hickory is pretty hard to get in my area (and too expensive to order! haha).
Nice work Cody....absolute pleasure to watch....God bless.
Excellent as always. I really like that little hammer.
The videos with no talking are nice and relaxing
Great little hammer you have done thank you and keep up the great work.
Awesome work, my brother! God bless.
Beautiful. That is all that needs to be said.
Everything beautifully done. Thanks
love all the tools, great video.
+wranglerstar It would be nice if you added what the music is in your videos into the info below it. Thanks
+Aaron Aneloski That's part of the channel - guessing the music. If you check the comments people list the artist - you can likely find it there...MrsW
I used "sound hound" and did a google search of the lyrics and came up with nothing.
I read quite a few of the comments but will look a bit more
+varun009 same as I got
+varun009 I'm sorry. I actually don't know or I'd tell you. Cody's not with me right now. MrsW
Beautiful workmanship!
+Andrea Arzensek thanks
Wow Cody, You make that look so easy..
Nice job, Cody. By the way, did you ever finish banding your anvil stand? That was an interesting project. I hope this hammer is a sign that there are more blacksmithing videos on the horizon! -Cheers!
very much reminds me of Jimmy Direstas videos.
Beautiful video, love the spokeshave... Can't wait to see you make the Paul sellars rabbet plane (please)
+HikeandgoSeek Thank you. I'll be uploading a video review of this spoke shave tomorrow,
I have often seen you seat the heads by holding them and hitting the bottom. Was the head on this one to light to do this?
+DraaxLP Draxx!!!! no way do you watch WS! its all about inertia in this case the head was to light to counter the inertia of the handle.I got a channel about blacksmithing if you are interested at all,i have videos that kind of explain basic blacksmith techniques/tools.forge/anvil/tooling.might add a little depth to the use of forges and smithies in ARK unless you already know a bit about metal work.
Awesome and beautiful , how can people not like this video?
Nice work Cody...really enjoyed
I have watched almost all of your videos. I would put this one in the top 10 easy! Keep it up Cody.
A man of few words, but many hammers!
Another classic! Love these videos!
Beautiful work!
Great job. Looks great.
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful
Simple perfection, well played sir
I love these handle making videos so much, I'm glad you made one again. I liked how it was similar to the Neeman birth of a tool vids.
Lovely peaceful video - thank you
Cool change of pace Cody, I didn't expect this kind of video from your channel. Keep trying new things. I enjoyed it.
Wow. What a beautiful handle. Great job. Thanks again for another great video.
No Wranglerstar makers mark ???!!! It is a a great video to watch - so relaxing. Gread job as always!
outstanding video,it reminded me of john neeman's birth of a tool series.
That was a very satisfying video. Well done.
I have a hickory tree or two on my property, and hope to make some handles myself out of that wood, but haven't started yet!
VERY cool. Just seems so relaxing
One word: sublime.
I wish I knew what became of my spoke shave, gave it away I think, now I really wish I had it back. Never knew how versatile a tool it is. Now that I've gotten the bug to resurrect old axes and hammers it would be good to have one again.Gabby
More like this! Love it!
Nice work. Kitchen is looking good also. hope all is going well. .
Just a stunning video it's silence spoke volumes....very nice indeed
No words needed Mr W great video.
