Jamie needs a maker's mark for all the new things he's gonna forge
Jamie needs a destroying mark
JS for Jamie's Sheet...
Not until he becomes a master
I was about to comment the same.
I was thinking exactly the same thing!!
You can't be around a craftsman like Alec without picking up some skills of your own.
Osmosis learning.
Yep
A day with a good teacher is better than a thousand days of study
He should have Yogo try to forge a hammer then
Just by watching his channel (and others), I've been sort of able to give advice on the Baliscissors (butterfly scissors) project. Probably not great advice, but I do get a feeling why the scissor halves warp unpredictably after machining and grinding in the bevel. Alec too learned from the best, and following his channel (and That Works) gives a great insight into basic metallurgy without having to follow engineering courses.
I'm not sure I could do half as well as Jamie though, but I do love the process of crafting and manufacturing.
Keep in mind we don't wanna lose Jamie to him creating his own successful youtube channel and blacksmithing workshop. Seems oddly specific, but I feel like there's something to it.
… then I would have TWO partners who created their own successful UA-cam channel and blacksmithing workshop. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
Let's hope. You can't be someone's minion forever. Gotta go out on your own at some point.
He could always Cask Of Amantiado Alec then he doesn't even need to make his own channel
Jamie's refusal to call the punch and drift by their actual names and instead calling them "small hole maker" and "big hole maker" is hilarious.

This is a *perfect* example of the interaction between a *true* teacher and a student. Guiding, giving subtle hints, while still allowing them to make mistakes that they can recover from.
That's how proper Coaching works :)

Love seeing Jamie get more involved in the videos, from added commentary to full on forging, its great!
I would take a series where you take one or more people and teach them various blacksmithing skills, starting from something simplistic to more complicated things. Way to go Jamie.
when he first started his youtube channel. he us to teach people. You can see him making all them tools with a class in his very old clips. Alec even live streamed for awhile. shame he stopped them.
The collabs where he teaches blacksmithing were great. It would be nice to have more of them again.
@@ItsAnArtform Just a theory, but I would bet covid had a huge factor on this. I was working in a makers shop before covid, and once the pandemic hit, not only did we get WAYY less commissions, but being around people in close proximity was a risk factor so we decided to shut down.
Apprentice Jamie should be an entire series!!!
Soooo... does this mean we get to have a video of Alec editing a video and Jamie watching on? :)
You want a video of editing? Wouldnt that just inevitably result in an infinite regression of videos of editing of videos of editing of videos of editing...?
@@michaelcherokee8906 editception
Awesome idea. A lot of us would love the chance to do something like that and Jamie is the perfect stand in, for us to see how that might turn out for us!
Next: Alex vs Jamie!
Alex will spend 8 videos fixing mistakes; Jamie would make one video.
But in 2 categories, where the other is an expert in
Whose Alex? : )
@@tobyforrest3877 Alec's slightly cooler cousin Alex Typo. ;-)
I love how you and Jamie are teaching each other new skills--caving vs. smithing.
Well done, gents! Jamie taught you about caving, and you have him swinging a hammer at hot steel. Love it!
really appreciated the balance of letting Jaimie work it out but dropping hints. much more fun to watch, as opposed to a strict version. was really wholesome and gratifying to see Jaimie learn and Alec thrive as a teacher. if you'd just shown me the hammer id never believe it was some ones first.
You gotta get Jamie to make a makers mark for all the stuff he’s been making recently I love all this stuff you guys have been working on. Keep on the amazing work :)

I 👏 am 👏 here 👏 for 👏 the 👏 Alec 👏 and 👏 Jamie 👏 content! 👍
Man I loved the old tool forging videos. Like when he made a beautiful damascus Japanese hammer .Alec should make some unique beautiful tools . I always loved how Illia from that makes has an engraved and enlayed hammer.

Remember when Alec was making videos in a tiny dark workshop? How far he has come!
Awesome work my friend!
Oooooh what a glorious episode! Technical input, learning to be had, from billet to finished product in one episode! I LOVE IT !!!! Thank you Jamie and Alec!! Best regards from Norway!
Kinda wish there was a bit more to this vid, Alec pointing out where Jamie went right, where he can improve, breaking down the features and effects Jamie got on his hammer because of how he worked it, and what Alec would have done to make it better

It's great to see videos like this where yall are actually forging we need to see Jamie make a maker's mark now.
Bringing this channel back to its roots!!! I remember all the videos of you teaching classes and seeing this again was incredible!! Fantastic job
Alec being so proud of Jamie is the cutest.
Great job Jamie!!!
This clip shows it very clear how big difference does it make to start from a scratch and knowing nothing and how you perform when you watched someone doing that work (and document it) for some time. Comfort with tools, catching hints, knowing the process... It takes time and practice. He had his time watching, just needs a bit of time feeling how it's done. And it goes fast. Really good job.
And i wish my first hammer would be as good :)
Thanks for filming Alec and Jamie. 👍😁
Passion, Pressure, and Personal pride. Those are my points of success. Got to love what you do, supply and demand, and if you won't buy it, most others won't either.
I love seeing you guys teach each other about your respective hobbies, like jamie shows you how to cave, you show him how to forge, so cute 💜

I just acquired a forge. When I return home, my blacksmithing journey can finally begin. Nice hammer Jamie, my first will be an old sledge hammer, transformed into a rounding hammer.
After watching this channel for years, this would be one of the best videos. Simple, to the point and entertaining. Great work boys.
I gotta say, this one was a lot of fun to watch. Seeing the precision and power behind Alecs strikes with that sledge was really impressive. Also Jamie I thought you did an awesome job and did very well for your first time. I'd love to have this opportunity to learn from Alec and work beside him. Very cool, well done guys. Great episode
I bloody loved this episode! What a brilliant job Jamie did. 👏

Loved this! I've missed your teaching videos, and this is a fantastic idea. Someone who has seen the whole process up close attempting to perform the creative task themselves. A great confidence builder for other new blacksmiths, that still ... drives home ... the point that sooner or later you need someone to help you.
Even if they are gravitationally challenged. 😀
I must admit Alec! Seeing you work alongside someone else REALLY brings out the energetic Alec from when I discovered you years ago.
I missed him 🥰
It's wonderful to see you filled with excitement over working the metal again AND filming! 😅
Hihi!
PS; Jamie! Great work on that Hammer buddy! 😁👌
Reported for fake account 🙄. Been a fan long enough to call this bullshit. Stupid people who try and scam others. Ugh.
Keep up the good work, Alec! 👌
Absolutely love it when a trade is learned and passed on. Ggs both of you.

LOVE this video! Always enjoy hearing the thought-process/problem-solving skills put to use.
You should do a series going through the ABANA (Artist Blacksmith Association of North America) curriculum, perhaps with some useful tips along the way for aspiring smiths. Enjoyed the video!
Jamie: "It'll work itself out"
Alec: "Mkay"
An interesting short would be a bunch of clips of hammer swings counting how many strikes it takes to forge a hammer or whatever. Oooor a challenge between to smiths where they "bid" how few of strikes it'll take to make something

From one Jamie to another...well done sir...Next object to make...a torch...that would be magic😁
I like the videos with both of you, the interaction and dynamic is fun to watch.
Great job Jamie and Alec - most enjoyable to watch along.
I wish I had a friend like Alec.... I'd love to play w/ toys like this and learn something like blacksmithing. It might come in handy when the zombie apocalypse starts.... LoL
It's free smithing lessons is what it is! Love your stuff! Good work, guys, and keep it up!

Loving the content with Jamie. Keep it going!
EEEVERYBOOODY IS MAKIN' HAMMEEEER!!!
Seriously, a person just doesn't know what he could be able to do until a master teaches him how to do something. And given that the master is Alec, the outcome will be a useful hammer made with care and fun. Well done, Jamie. Well done, guys.
Suggestion: It would be awesome if on the end of the video if you show hammer being used on hot metal, how it does, the balance some commentary would be nice :) Awesome job both of you this was very nice and friendly as any learning should be :)

It is nice to see some of the onscreen cooperation between to guys doing projects. And allways fun to see ppl learning. Way to go jamie. You should make a nice display plate of wood and hang it at home. Beautiful and a good memory to have on the wall! -And it is one of those things your future guests would ask about and that would be a good conversation piece. :)
Stellar work, Jamie!
Awesome! Great work Jamie! 😄
Great idea and a fun watch! Cheers Jamie.
Another idea could be Jamie's blind trials. Jamie describes a project to Alec and sets a time limit. Alec creates and at the end, Jamie's drawing is revealed and Alecs finished article is compared to Jamie's drawing/ concept to see how closely it matches.
Well done man! Lovely work!
This was a great video. Back to what got a lot of us introduced and interested in the channel.

Love the forging content! Nice job on the hammer Jamie!
I think the way I learned to hole punch is continue on one side till the thinnest side cools faster then switch back and forth till it gives.
Its fun when you get a nice and toasty biscuit in the sock

good video idea, been loving the channel recently. There have been some really unique ideas yall have come up with.
This was a great video! Not surprised how well Jamie did though, not just because of being around and part of Alex's antics but Jamie is pretty on to it anyways.
He's going to be addicted after this Alec lol a future smith is born. Great job Jamie! Keep at it and before you know it you'll have your own shop full of tools and ability to forge anything.
Since Jamie has now made his first hammer, he should come up with a touch mark to add!

As a teacher, I completely understand the desire to just do it for the studnet. BUT YOU CAN'T! That is how people learn by doing and gentle guidance. Well Done Both of you.
Thank you for making a video that's not a series. Yo your one of my top five UA-camrs, but if I gotta watch more than two episodes for the end result I'm not sticking around. Thanks for the shot stop. 👍🏼
