Everyone of these makes me realize how much of a Godsend bamboo is to a primitive civilization.
Being in NA, I can't IMAGINE how fucking valuable it would be. Having to shave out wood for water pipes and aqueducts must have been a full time job pre-Rome. Stone cutters must have been paid WELL.
@@thatsweetlilthing2 not necessarily. Most of the people doing the hardest labor in larger scale societies were either enslaved or doing the equivalent pay of a McDonald's employee. Why? Because there wasn't a lot of technology to differentiate to in that time. You had such little different types of labor that most people knew how to do a little bit of everything. Once metalworking, education, large scale warfare, advanced engineering, etc started coming around, then the jobs were a bit more than you're either chief, fighting man, or common laborer. I mean granted the hierarchy was still divided into the 4 types: Nobility, Clergy, Soldier, Laborer, but now you can specialize in certain fields. Now you can be a laborer, but also specialized as a carpenter, for example.
@@point-five-oh6249 I really don't think you're giving the Romans technology enough credit. I wouldnt have put it past slave labor being used to construct the aqueducts but it goes way beyond basic engineering
@@thatsweetlilthing2 Oh at the time the technology for the Roman Aqueducts were revolutionary. I am just saying that with the tech the guy in the video has, that you can't really expect people of the same era to be able to do that kind of thing because in the primitive period most people lived in small villages with one or two large cities here and there. I'm just saying that Rome made sure to distinguish that you were still a peasant, even if you were smarter than the average tavern drunk.
...and I used to think they were only good for bongs.

Iron ingots should be way more expensive on rpgs
RPGs typically involve magic and industrial scale production. RPGs also have to tweak timescales and costs to keep players grinding, but not bored.
Once you have iron, getting more iron is easy since you can make proper metal tools and make mines instead of looking for surface ore.
Agreed... can you imagine how many times you'd have to hit the "×" button just for the baffles? You may even have to alternate with another button for the reciprocal action. "It ain't much, but it's honest work." Lmao
Yeah because of the work put into them. Iron is much harder to work than gold or silver.
Ingot is poop on rpg online
It’s mind blowing how much work the most basic ingredients take. Just adequate shelter is a huge undertaking. But seeing how to actually gather enough metal and all the prep ....how did we make it this far? Our ancestors were badass - as are you, sir.
Research is the harder job imo. Knowledge is the ultimate power. But yes, he was epic
thats why teamwork is important to produce this thing faster to industry
Exactly what I think of whenever I see a picture of a suit of armor or a sword. The amount of effort required in its construction is just mind blowing. Equipping an entire army would require so much smelting and smiting. It's incredible.
That’s because there were many blacksmiths in a civilization. Slaves and experienced blacksmiths were often ordered to forge swords, axes, hammers, and eventually guns.
Remember to thank an engineer! ;)
I've been looking into old techniques of smelting and metalworking for a story I want to write and this video has been one of the best finds. Makes the process as clear as could be while not speaking a single word.
And it's very well shot and produced and a pleasure to watch.
Excellent video.

Finally someone notice about it
He is not making steel but pig iron. To turn pig iron into steel will take some more refining process further.
Anyway, his ability to do it is fantastic . Congratulations brave primitive hard working man ! Greetings from Brasil.
I dont know anything about it, but I thought it being mixed right in with the coal would give it the carbon mixture that forms steel? What else is done to make traditional steel?
@angrydingus It likely fairly low carbon, wrought iron (not pig iron). It's a process called bloomery steel, and can produce widely varying products, and widely varying carbon content. The main issue is all the slag that is mixed within the bloom takes extensive processing to make something useable. And usually that just means spreading the slag/inclusions around as uniformly as possible.
It can yield quality steel final product though, for certain. Depending on the technique and time put into it. Certainly useable steel, it was used through history before more advanced procedures were developed- blast furnaces etc.
@@zakpodo Awesome thanks for the info. Gives me something more to look into.
hes right, steel has a carbon content below 2,06%, everything above is called cast iron. this is called pig iron and needs further refining like removing the carbon content with oxygen (or back in the days with regular atmospheric air, which contains a lot of nitrogen so it is not so great), and desulfurization (sulfur creates lots of impurities after the casting process). also a good slag is needed to reduce Si, Mn.
but technically, if he brings the carbon down below 2,06%.. it is considered steel, not a good quality but basic steel. :)
@@KGKolibri Bloomery steel was mostly lower carbon iron, like I said, not pig iron. And so is the product in the video. It is not impossible to create high carbon iron in a bloomery procedure, but it's atypical. That said, it produces iron with a range of content, not usually mixed evenly.
See below for sources.
www.researchgate.net/publication/282956457_Mechanical_Properties_of_Medieval_Bloomery_Iron_Materials_-_Comparative_Tensile_and_Charpy-tests_on_Bloomery_Iron_Samples_and_S235JRG2
exarc.net/issue-2013-2/ea/production-high-carbon-steel-directly-bloomery-process-theoretical-bases-and-metallographic-analyses
Or search bloomery in wiki.
Two things: Making carbon is easy. Finding iron ore depending on location can be hard. Secondly, swinging that stone axe so close to bare feet gives me heartburn
Reminds me of the video titled "3 Ancient Hand Tools Japanese Carpenters Still Use" from 4:20. That's even more uncomfortable to watch.
I chopped the side of my foot with a hatchet while wearing slip on flip flops lol
Well MAKING Carbon is Not very easy
@@karlalbert2798 yeah for you it's definitely not, snowflake !
@@PotionsMaster666 i dont think you understood what i meant. Because if you want to make an element you would need an element with less protons than your desired product. You would then have to shoot additional protons into it so that for example boron (5 protons) turns into carbon (6 protons)
As a someone who works in the steel industry i have to say im amazed by this
See, you don't need all that fancy stuff like PPE, barely a pant to cover your steel balls, that's all ...
I also spent a few years in the steel industry, and this is indeed amazing. Not the chemistry, that's pretty simple. The fact that you can get the temperatures necessary with that primitive of equipment is an achievement. Would not take much more for the poster to make crucible steel instead of bloom steel. Crucible steel doesn't take much more tech, and produces a far easier to work steel product.
@Max Martins Crucible steel is all about keeping oxygen out. So you put in your iron oxide (iron ore) some scrap iron, carbon, a bit of glass or good sand into a crucible. Which was then sealed and "baked" or fired at a high enough temperature to melt the components down. Once fired, you'd break open the crucible, and if everything went right, you'd have a hockey puck of steel.
This allows the carbon to remove the impurities in the iron (mainly oxygen), and give you steel. You also tend to want more carbon than you need, as that makes it carbon steel, which is good for weapons.
There are some very good youtube videos made by historians that discuss crucible steel in great depth, and some even go into the ratios of what you need to add to make it work.
Steel making is all about ratios of what you add to make the desired grade or alloy of steel. In modern steel making, there is usually a secondary furnace, where the steel is kept molten, so that the chemistry of the steel can be tweaked to get exactly what you want. In the mills i have worked in or visited, this is called the LMF, or ladle metallurgical furnace.
The look on his face will be priceless when he finds out all he needs is 8 cobblestone and a piece of coal

That makes refined iron. There’s no such thing as “steel”.

i used to try to build stuff in the woods when i was around ten years old. i wasnt very good, but i didnt read any books or anything on traps and such. i just remember how much i truly enjoyed being in the woods and making stuff from nature. i cant imagine the satisfaction this man feels.
As an Iron Ore Mine Operator in Western Australia, I can safely say that those Iron Ore rocks were not just sitting under that kind of earth there. They were placed there just for this video.
For this Video, It doesn't matter where the Iron Ore was found it's about the process from ore to Iron
@@johnpartridge7623 i disagree personally. The process from ore to iron includes in my opinion the extraction of iron ore. Also it is abit indicative of the whole video if he is willing to mislead in such regards. It kind of throws into question quite a few different techniques used (and were they done correctly without any 'help' so to speak). But that's just my 2cents.
Where I live in the America there are mountains with magnetite rocks laying around everywhere. Accessibility really depends on the luck of the geology draw.
unfortunate that.
Iron ore is found in certain rock beds, not all of it needs mining, it's mined as you say to avoid open cast mining and environmental issues that accompanies open cast mining. That rock is not hard to find it's just a matter of extracting it which is what this Gentleman just did
At the end of the day, he ended up with a hunk of low quality iron requiring a lot more processing, but *WHOA! That was really cool!* There was a lot of effort, hard work and planing necessary to put this thing together. Impressive. I would love to see them process that raw iron into something cool. Perhaps, they've already have and have already released a video.
How do you process it further?
@@cowmoo5596 flattening and folding the metal several times will remove most of the inclusions.
he wasted soo much effort for no reason though. It's laughable. It ended up with a lump of iron, not even steel. :D
@@hawkintelligence Not a complete waste of time. He does have over 1M subscribers for making videos about making mud pies.
@@joecaner yeah, because he used SEO tools and if you actually look at the sub list, he bought them. lmao. But still, the foundation of the comment. Native people never wasted steps. It was about survival. Not breaking and using useless objects for servicing or creating. It's useful for a modern age "skill set" for primitive objectives. But back in the day, no one used this and no one was this wasteful while doing so.

This reminds me of an episode of Man at Arms: Reforged when they made the katana from Kill Bill from scratch, making the tamahagane and shingane from bloomery steel with a furnace just like that (albeit gas fired rather than using bellows).... Cool video!!
One of their best episodes.
But this ain't steel, it's a bloom of sponge iron. Making of steel requires higher temperatures, which can't be reached using charcoal.
@Pavel. I got what i expect to see. A piece of slag🤣
Doesn't it depend on the type of hardwood that is used to make charcoal? Are there some hardwoods that have a high BTU that could make charcoal to melt iron ore or at least from a meteorite? Iron smithing was known in Egypt to a least 1325 BC and likely well before then as an iron dagger was found in King Tut's tomb.
Yep, but you can make steel from that, with hammer and many hours work. ua-cam.com/video/X3KJik8a3VU/v-deo.html similar smelting (charcoal and some sand donations for better steel quality) and in final, you have steel sword. but you need many more basic material for that.

It was an impressive big bloom you made!
With that, it's not steel yet, just relatively soft iron.
You also need an assistant ...
It's a bloom, once he hammers the living hell out of it it'll become wrought iron. Which is ~0,1% carbon away from steel. It's really soft right now because of all the slag an unrefined bloom has inside of it.

That's impressive that you were actually able to get it to melt. This is much better than any primitive furnace I've seen on UA-cam
The bellows is key
The bellows move around a lot of air.
Primitive Technology was able to get some little metal slugs from an ash iron muck concoction he made but he hasn't not made a follow up video on it yet. Most channels though definitely don't do things this in debth with stuff they actually get from nature, most seem to have a little cheating involved.
It does not melt. It is a chemical reaction between the iron oxide and the carbon in the forge, it reduces the iron oxide to pure iron, which will never melt at the temperatures he reached. Once he got the bloom out it wasn't even really at forge welding temps.
@@Sgtassburgler interesting. I thought that it didn't really look like it got hot enough. He's gonna need a much bigger furnace running on a water wheel powered blower to melt steel

Outstanding! I also recognize getting this far was incredibly labor intensive and yet there's so much left to do... have you considered making a forge with a tap or a plate so you can get the bloom out without breaking the whole thing down? If it was a replaceable plug then later you could use it as a forge; tip your bellows on end and rig a lever and a counterweight for it so you can just stand there and waggle up and down on the weight to pump the fire up while you're forging out some wrought iron and making a set of tools to make even better things.
You are INCREDIBLY lucky to be where you can just roam around and find decent ore... dig around a little and you might end up doing some copper or silversmithing :)

That iron ore he seems to be using looks to be limonite, a pseudomorph of pyrite that has had its molecular structure hydrated due to being exposed to the elements for a while, but still retains its crystalline structure hence is why it may also come in forms of cuboids.
That explains the moss growing on it.
