    Probably THE most frustrating blacksmithing process. I have found it reassuring watching outtakes from John's (Black Bear Forge) forge welding videos where they don't take and he has pieces flying everywhere. I have at times gotten so fed up and just mig welded the piece. That said every bit of information is greatly appreciated. Thank you for sharing, Roy.

    Hey Roy, this is incredibly timely. I actually just did my first forge weld yesterday, also without flux on a piece of 3/8 round bar folded back on itself. I managed to get it to weld, but I'm sure it was dumb luck as I didn't really know what I was doing. On a related note, I just realized in this video that I have the same coal forge you were using and I noticed that Thomas increased/decreased the air without cranking the blower in the video. Would you mind sharing what you did for air induction down underneath the forge? Merry Christmas Roy and thanks!

    Many thanks on this very educational video Roy. As I've said in the recent past, I'm just now starting up with forging and blacksmithing and I haven't yet tried my first forge weld. Right now I've got a little propane powered forge that I use and I'm just hoping that I can get it up to a proper welding heat. It will sure cook the steel hot but I'm just not sure it will be hot enough. I'll sure give it a try though as I want to learn how to forge weld. I believe it will come in very handy in the future.

  • @rustybow7293

    Hi roy I really enjoyed the video and the information you provided i was wondering if you would be able to provide a more in-depth insight into the use of coke in the forge as im having a hard time with finding a lot of information on its use in blacksmithing and how much difference there is between using lump wood charcoal , coal and coke and the ways that they differ eg constant air flow or different forge set up to use do they perform similar or not will you be more likely to make more mistakes more quickly in one or the other with Heating will this save some money in the long run if i use a longer burning fule are they put out the same way or do they all have a different way of dousing the fire any help at figuring this out would be greatly appreciated thank you

    I have a problem that I don't know how to solve. I use a coal forge and because of this I can’t properly monitor the temperature of the workpiece, because it is in the coals. When I want to do forge welding, my workpiece either melts into liquid metal or I don’t heat it enough and it oxidizes.

  • @mattwyeth3156
    @mattwyeth3156 10 місяців тому

    If you have a 15mm thick by 40mm wide peice of bar can you forge weld the two 15mn sides together or does it need to be the 40mm sides I'm going to also try to slit a hole through it for an leg vice mounting bracket the part that bolts to the post and pins through it to mount the vice would this be strong enough for the job I'll be using it for it will be all done by hand

    Bituminous coal is a lot more available than coke and and is harder to use. It would be nice if you did some demonstrations using Bituminous coal.

  • @jbospecial
    @jbospecial 2 роки тому

    i suspect whoever taught you that molten steel is ejected from too strong a hammer blow while first setting forge welds was mistaken. mild steel melts at about 2700 °F. i suspect it has more to do with lack of sufficient diffusion to reduce grain boundaries between the two planes of the separate bars between subsequent blows. too hard a blow, and you're undoing all the forge welding you did on the prior strike. what do you think?

  • @billwoehl3051
    @billwoehl3051 2 роки тому +1

    So, burnt steel means you're to low in the fire, or, a tunnel in the coke letting air to the stock👍🤔

  • @cae2487

    When he went for the first/tack weld there was a loud pop from the steel or anvil. If you know can you elaborate as to what caused that loud pop? The reason I ask I was building my 2nd damascus billet not very long ago and when I went to set my billet it to popped loudly like a gunshot had gone off an I may have been better off wearing my brown pants that day lol. Also it didn't happen on the first billet I built and so I was curious why it would happen sometimes but not every time. Thanks for the advice if you can provide it and happy holidays. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us I know I appreciate it.
