    Just as everyone else..... wow... loved the ingenious solution to quickly straightening that coil. I was thinking about using and anvil and a hammer. I was scratching my head when he started up the tractor. My question is... be honest... whose idea was it? Or where did you get that idea?

      I've got a few springs that i've been wondering how to work with. Heat and straighten with a hammer and bending jig? But that way it brilliant! I wonder if my lawn mower would do it? The springs i have are 8in by 3in and about 1/4in diameter. I bet my mower would work for those, haha.

    Auction the axe through eBay to get around raffling, or get a raffle license for future projects. Raffle licenses are quite easy and cheap here in Atlantic Canada (I'm in New Brunswick), but I don't know how it would work in BC. Patreon is a good idea for your channel.

    For raffles in Canada you just have to ask the winner a math question. It turns it from a game of chance to one of skill. So whoever wins it, just make them correctly answer a math question like, "What is 4*5 +10 -5 = " and it becomes a skill game and not a game of chance or gambling.

    Re Patrion, try looking at it from the side of a customer who loves what you do and would like to support your work. Normally they could do this by purchasing things you make, which would support your buisness. But if the can't afford an axe, they may be a bit stuck. Patrion allows people gives them the ability to help you to spend more time to spend doing video's. If you still don't like this try looking at what you could provide your Patrons...... e.g. early access to video's, goody bags that could have things that you won't be selling on the open market (classic blacksmith give away is something like a bottle opener designed specifically for your Patrons), goody bags with logo stickers, etc.
    I hope this helps your thinking process 👍
