The beginning alone deserves a like for the whole video.
That start was hilarious!!!
Liam, you are becoming much more than a young blacksmith. You are inspiring. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Cool process.
Shop is looking great!
love it!
Nice-looking tool and can you do something about that Forge it looks like you're kale wool is hanging down or something
Dadgummit, Mr. Hoffman. Here I was just a wonderin' if polishing the leading edges of that there punch would lengthen it's functional life and here you are, at the end, polishing it! Ain't it amazing how great minds think alike.
Nice! I love H-13 for tools. I only started using recently, but it works great with my press.
H13 has great properties and characteristics to be used as a forging tool
Great video liam
Can't tell you how many matchbooks I've gone through for the sole reason of flicking them as you did when lighting the forge. It is also a "blast" placing a book of matches on a golf ball and smashing it. Yeah... I grew-up without technology and my siblings stole the rock and the stick, so I was bored.
Very Cool punch Sir
That's for the info
Do you ever feel like the video is the hardest part of blacksmithing?
Your post vise looks pretty massive; perhaps comparable to mine, which is 110 lbs. And how do you decide which one of your cool anvils you'll use for a given job? I would lose time through indecision.
What dimensions are you working to? I am new to blacksmithing. Is there a rule of thumb for dimensions on a hammer eye punch/drift? I would like to start making all my own tools but am not sure if there is a spec for these or not. Any info would be great. Thanks.
what steel are your hammers and axes made from?
I wanna see the 3 foot grinder
How big is the stock you are using in cm?
Lol at the beginning
, how did you make your hand logo punch
So all you have to do with H13 is just to let it cool down on its own and then its hardend?
No, as Liam said you also have to drop it about twice.
Yes, its an so called air hardening steel
It looks great but why are they not made with a more pointed end to go into the steel
You want it a bit flat on the end so it's not slitting a hole, but punching out a slug from the eye...that way it's much easier for it o receive your drift...if you slit the eye, you need a very skinny drift and run the risk of riveting your drift into the head of the hammer if you don't get it all the way through on one heat.
Whats the grinding platen with the hoses coming out the back?
It's water cooled.
Did I miss something again? Do you have some sort of heat exchanger on your 2x72 platten??
Yes, you are using a chilled platen. I assume either air or water could be used?
Looks good but why? Why not a handled one? They are much safer and accurate because you can see both planes of lvl and square much easier. Plus you don't worry about ambient heat burning your r hand while holding the punch...nor mistrikes breaking your hand.
I really think Liam ought to enter pro arm wrestling this guys Forearms are just mind boggling.
It only took a minute. LOL!
How about that girly scream when the forge finally lit with a big woosh? You're the only Smith I've seen drop harden any kind of metal, ha ha ha.
Liam looks like your lining in the forge is hanging down, that kaowool needs to be fixed mate, or the fibers will be blown out an hurt your lungs.
All those bad ass tools are suppose to speed up your work, what happened .. thumbs up on cool tools
Been watching for a while - wish you guys would figure out your audio but overall thanks for the good content
"A punch for making top tools..."
Like toppings on a pizza?
That you could eat in slow mo.?
During a dramatic cinematic sequence?
Nice.
Looks like you are in need of a new forge.
Why am I blocked from your instagram, we've never spoke, and I've rarely commented, though when I did it was in support and admiration).
Tired of all of the admiration? You didn't come across as stalker-ish, did you?
@@thomasarussellsr I just got back on instagram this year after a year hiatus. I only just found out I was blocked and I don't understand why.
I really am just legitimately curious at this point.
@@skull8093 lack of use? I don't know their parameters.
@@thomasarussellsr possible.
