The spike nail I use is 1/4" in diameter and less than 10" long. I get them at the hardware store. If your hardware store is stupid, your results may vary.
all the spike nails in my area say hot galvanized dipped. are yours galvanized? and will they worked?
@@caveman8200 galvanized will work but its better to get the bright, shiny type. You can order them online through Amazon. Mine are not galvanized.
Its allways good to have different hardness for etc
I tried drilling out the base of an expanded Barnes bullet. These are solid copper expander projectiles for firearms, but make pretty flower shapes after expansion. The process of being fired down a barrel hardens the base incredibly, tool steel bits barely scratch the stuff. So, copper can be made quite hard with a bit of intention. There are infinite copper alloys, it's our first metal, so it's been experimented on the most. Electric wire is 99.9% pure, plumbing tube will be full of hardeners, like vanadium and chromium, and a bunch of other elements. I'm sort of into metallurgy and history. 2000 alloy aluminum should resist mushrooming more than 6061 or 7005 alloys. That's all the knowledge I can add on the topic.
Ole jack does some fine work peace to the gods
Jack thank you for this video. I can now get the copper tools i need. I have a 10mm and 15mm copper bar. Just ordered a copper hammer with a 25mm head. just have to find my tin with the 150mm long nails so im getting the things together so i can start flint knapping. My dream is to one day make a Arrowhead.
Thanks
No problem

I'm Going to try a 1" 6061 bar stock 4" long also 👍🏼
Cool
Nevermind...I asked on another vid what size and type your aluminium rod was.
😎🏹
Have you ever used 7075 aluminum? It's harder but I wonder if it's too hard. I may ask Newman too just because I've gotten curious enough to buy a piece but I only want to do it once.
Never tried 7075.
Would a 2+inch diameter be better for spalling big stuff or is your sledge and peen always your goto for spalling?
The sledge seems to be my go to. I've tried everything except 2" or 3" diameter aluminum billets.
How long is the aluminum bar
4 inches
@@KnapperJackCrafty thanks again
Es de unos 40mm el aluminio?
Yes
Muchísimas gracias ppr su tiempo en responder, actualmente estoy intentando la cuarcita y tengo que hacerme una herramienta similar a la suya para intentar conseguir algo decente.
Muchas gracias jack y mis respetos como su seguidor.
Saludos desde España.
Do you have any leather hand pads for sale ?
