Alec Steele Blacksmith 2019 - Розваги
This is the first time I've heard them actually make a "Steele" pun, and I've been waiting years for this
You missed the Steele Rack 2.0 joke during the 'setting up the new workshop' series of videos. ;)
Me too
As Bad as these jokes are....these guys are funny as hell😂
The name is quite, iron-ic ;)
(Stolen from the man himself)
It was a terriferric pun.
CDT is the color toner density light sensor. You have to clean it with a DRY cotton swab. Probably just has toner on it. Google the model number and you should find a step by step.
Also check the Jets, you'll get that error if the Jets are gunked up. Tooth pick with rubbing alcohol on the end to clean.
was going to say the same thing
wierd flex but ok
He's not wrong.
Hey working for Xerox finally had a real world application
put it in the forge and hit it with a hammer
2 years ago: horizontal surfaces are evil and the enemy of effecient workspaces.
Today: Look at our warehouse full of shelving racks!
Will: “Me do good smarts,”
2019 new shirt quote. 😂😂
*second! 🖐
You had me at Will doing a proper squat with a table. Fantastic
Same.
I lol'd for sure. That was the most broseph of bro puns ever.
Will seemed a little shy in front of the camera when he first started appearing on the channel. I've enjoyed watching his comfort on "stage" increase and see that he is both a funny and likable guy. Feel better Will. Thank you both for producing content that I enjoy watching.
Alec (and Will) is truly the only UA-cam creator's channel who I will weather through ads so he can make his money. Love your content and hope it's here to stay for a long time!
Agreed
I don’t have an issue with watching ads for 99% of people. Only a few I wouldn’t want to watch and i don’t watch those people anyway
Completely agree, you guys rock
The tables can double as blast shielding.
Me: Microwave
Alec: *Cancer Box*
Me: Cancer box
Hmmmmmmmm...... a lot of people refer to using the device as "Nukeing" something...so, well.....
@@waynethompson8416, that's how my father referred to it. (age 68)
@@tonyk421 , I was born the same year....in April!
@@waynethompson8416 Yeah, Me too, April '51.
If a microwave's shielding breaks down, it's more likely to make you sterile or cause eye damage than cause cancer, best to wear a tin foil suit and hat when heating a snack!
Cancer box
"Me do good smarts" - Will Stelter, 2019
Love the hammer story 😊 excited to get one! 🔨 Also let us know if you need help with an office renovation part 3 sometime! (maybe when it gets a little warmer lol)
Yay, more collabs with awesome people working together!
Will recuperated within the span of ten minutes. He either has the most efficient immune system on Earth...or he may not be from Earth at all.
But in all sincerity, I hope he gets well soon.
Pretty sure he is an alien scout
Blacksmiths are mythological entities made of pure bad-assery and miracles. They sling sledges like an elephant tossing around a rag doll, are impervious to fire, and have immune systems that devour illness and plague quicker then piranha on a ham hawk. Of course he'll recuperate in a short ammount of time. XD
Remember when he got bit by that rattlesnake? After three days of intense pain - the snake died.
Me: Hey Will! I hope you get better soo-
Will: I'm fine now, thank you.
Me: Oh...ok.
@@harpodjangorose9696 They post a video and 3 days later Will is the stuff of legends.

Well how the turn tables have tabled!
17:27 "cancer box" jaaj that was good one
The nature of wood is that it shall move when there is any variation in temperature and humidity. Those tables are going to "adjust" themselves with the change of seasons.
You would have been better to go with thinner table tops made of laminated wood. Ahem...plywood. At least the tables should have been steel framed with the wood tops dropped into the framing from above and fixed into the frame with bolts into the sides through the frame. Semi-floating table top.
OldSlowGamer or just make cross beam under it to give it ridged support while curing.
the clean the ctd sensor has to do with dirt getting into your printer. There are tutorials on how to clean the sensor in various printers. I can't tell what printer you have so its up to you to look
Since the printer looks brand new, it's more likely that it's simply a matter of the plastic protective sheeting being on the imaging unit. Kinda guessing since we don't know the model number of the printer. You should be able to google "Install imaging unit" with your model number to get installation instructions.
I'm liking this "Day-to-Day Life at the Shop" kind of material that you're putting up... I'm watching an American success story happen, and it's centered around specialty craftsmanship.
Looking forward to more.
Will: me do good smart
Me: why say lot word when few word do trick
I just absolutely love the camaraderie within the blacksmithing community and the support that they give to each other. It's wholesome moments like remembering about Ethan who came to Alec years ago and now is supporting Alec's ambitions, that really makes me stay committed. Been here for years and will be for years to come.
The “a cancer box” caught me off guard lmao
Don't forget to make a steel logo branding iron so you can stamp your table!😉
The internet says that (if it's a brand new printer) that "the protection sheet on the imaging unit is probably still on, remove that and the error should go away."
Alec: Put me down will!
Will: In the band saw.
Alec: this doesn’t count as getting steel!
Had me laughing way to hard
Kaden McFarlain same here!
I heard, in the bin ha
It wants you to Clean the Color Tone Density Sensor is what that error means, either a problem with the sensor, back plate not closed all the way, or it needs to be cleaned. dry cotton swab usually does it. I'd post a link but Just google CTD Sensor Cleaning + (Make and Model of that Xerox copier)
“Me do good smart”
Ima start using this from now on...
I LOVE that a young Alec thought an even younger Ethan how to blacksmith, and is now giving him another step up on the hammers. It's awesome and I hope the success continues to be paid forward.
Nunya Fkn-Bzniss that’s a great comment and I love the sentiment and positivity, but why is spelling so god damn difficult for most of you.
I apologise, I realise I have an issue
@@Pdro-gw7lu Because I'm on my phone and have very thick fingers. It often auto corrects slightly misspelled words to something different. Like taught to thought...
Sorry that a couple typos offended you enough to waste your time with that comment. Hope you grow out of it someday.
Nunya Fkn-Bzniss I do apologise. It’s nothing against you at all, I’d just seen so many simple spelling errors yesterday it had gotten the better of me and you bore the brunt of it, which was not the adult thing to do.
Also, I’m nearing 40 and somehow not grown out of some of my picky personality traits, I’m dubious it’s going to happen unfortunately. But I’m ok with that, have a good one
need a rolling shop project table, something you can set 8-12 heavy angle iron legs on, wheel over to a vice, work on them there, then wheel them into the sanding room, work on them there, then wheel them out to a production table to work on them there, The back you save could be yours!!!!!
The other good thing about that office is that every one of you could be armed at a moments notice.
“We’re going to be making table legs”
Never thought I’d hear that
I can personally attest to Ethan’s ability to make an incredible hammer. I purchased one of his classic rounding hammers 2 years ago. It took one day of forging to become my favourite hammer. Perfect balance, perfect faces. Just an exceptional product from a fellow Albertan. I’m so glad he has gotten this amazing opportunity!
I love how Alec is throwing out math answers faster than Will can raise a calculator. Good job Alec. I’m proud of you. I was basically doing the same thing to my entire pre algebra class in middle school 16 years ago. Boy do I feel old now.
i'm surprised how long it took to make that joke, and that i've never thought of it before.
16:19 New desks are so magical they made the iMac vanish in thin air.
The table height arguement hit me in the feels. I work in the millwork industry and countertop heights are always something you have to double check.
To take the office reno to the next level, it would be awesome if you guys painted the back wall with the sword and awards with some sort of dark color, such as a dark grey or a dark blue, and to replace the tube lights with either recessed can lights or just put 4 bar spot lights (each can have between 3 and 6 spotlights) in the locations where the current tube lights are. You can position those spot lights how ever you want, and even point them at the awards. Make the spotlights a nice warm color and you got a great office space! Also maybe install some kind of rugged carpet to finish it off and reduce echos. Love what you've done so far with the tables! Keep up the awesome work!
When Joseph Seed will bomb Montana, only Alec's furniture will survive.
If Alec says it’s gonna be one month it’s probably safe to add another month onto that.
Hammer Series Part 147
Or two...or three....or......
Whelp, that's pretty much the norm when you're dealing with small scale suppliers/craftsman.
I am loving these 20 minute videos. I hope they continue to make them this length. I actually wouldn't mind watch 30 to even 45 minutes of Alec Steele episodes.
Nobody can make office desks as exciting as you Alec!!!! Thanks for sharing your Journey!
Alec: Hey Will, I have an idea for a table it is going to weigh 2 tons
Will: 2 tons is not enough! We dont want people to break in and steal it. We should make it 3 tons to be safe!
Alec: 😁
This is the earliest I’ve been able to see an Alec Steele vid, ever! So psyched
One of the reasons the table top wood is warped or cupped because the finish was not applied to both sides of the top. This allows moisture to be absorbed differently, thus causing the table to go out of flat. The wood’s moisture content may also be highly variable because it was stored outside in the weather. When new wood is brought into my design studio or my workshop, it’s first cut to very rough dimension, then stacked and stickered, for a few weeks or longer (depending on thickness and length) so it can acclimatize to the shop’s humidity. Seasonal wood movement can also be a factor even after the wood is fully finished.
Have any of you noticed that a while back Alec was trying forged in fire challenges and now watching forged in fire and seeing challenges/Will/Alec’s puns it’s so so great watching watching you after the years, congratulations on your success and to many more
"Not long enough, lets forge them longer!!!" And here I was thinking you could just make the feet a couple inches high to add the extra couple inches you need.
Wait..... actually using the swage block?!??!
It's awesome to see you and Will prospering and growing the crew. Congratulations on your new office space and new ventures!
No better person to have made those hammers IMO. That was a great choice and an amazing opportunity to give a former apprentice to make them. They’re as much as Alec’s as they are his former apprentice’s due to it being essentially taught with passion, love, and muscle from Alec. Beautiful hammers and I hope to buy one when they’re ready.
"She turned you into a (Will)?"
"I got better!"
Since Alec didn't make the hammers, are they considered "forge"ries?
take your updoot and get out of here
@@Cygnwolf not going to lie, I had to look up updoot
@@venomomega sorry, my Reddit is showing XD
Michael H dad joke game on point. Nice work sir
I've been watching your videos for about a year or two, Alec. You always brought up my mood with your excitement about your craft and I absolutely loved them. Then you moved to the States (welcome to the other side of the pond, btw) and got a partner. All of this to say that you managed to make already great videos better by adding a second person who is just as jazzed about crafting and creating things as you are and the comedic chemistry between you is only rivaled by the wonders you create. Thanks for brightening our days with your enthusiasm and good luck with your new business ventures.
Alec and Will, Let us all send you stuff for your office to decorate it. There's a feeling of community that will come out of it and some cool stuff. 🤔💡
Only Alec's fiancee can truly "get some Steele".
No visitors sign on the front door, respect their privacy please people!
Hey Alec, Massive long term fan from Australia here. CTD on a printer is a Colour Toner Density sensor. It should look like a little clear or glass square inside the printer. A little window cleaner on a cotton bud should clean it up. :)
FYI- the more you plane off of solid wood, the more likely you are to release forces in it causing it to warp- you should let it stabilize for 6-12 months in it's new environment, then take it back to the planer and take as little as possible off it to make it flat again. With the legs you have on them, the wood can expand and contract seasonally without causing any problems, so that part is good...
Hey Will.. did you throw your back out picking up that Steele???
Why didn’t they just use box steel and cut it diagonally to get two legs?
Or four
Daniel Fritz fair do’s but looks like they wanted thicker legs.
Alec, talking all British about the new office space.
Will: MO better.
Me : Rolling!
I am so happy the 2 of you teamed up. You guys are creating great things and supplying a whole lot of entertainment in the process.
Hey Alec. A suggestion for your new office space would be to get better lighting,
it would really turn your office into a motivation station.
"A cancer box" I died a bit
Gave a like for the intro skit 😄
I felt like this video had a lot of content in it rather than splitting it into more parts across different days. Thanks a bunch for that. It was nice seeing the finished product quickly.
I seriously loved this video, I mean, I truly laughted and enjoyed the whole way through.
Kudos for this, the puns and the office 😁
I love Alec to bits and I love this new vlog style. But our boy needs a haircut. Bring back the spikes!
when you're so early that there aren't even any comments on the CTD sensor error
Liking the newer format of the videos. A lot more in the day to day. Glad you are getting back into more frequent videos. 👍🏻
Yeah that printer error is pretty common with Xerox.
Just means that you need to clean Colour Toner Density Sensor.
Didn't see what model you have but the steps are pretty much the same on all of them.
In a room with as little light as possible:
1: power off the printer (unplugged from the wall after you power it down)
2: (depending on the model) open the front or back of the printer and Locate the CTD sensor (or ADC depending on model) (normally behind the front cover, near the top middle area of the Transfer Belt.)
3: Very gently wipe the sensor window using a clean, dry cotton swab or in a pinch a small clean rag.
4: close it back up and power it back on.
If you look up your model# with CTD error you should be able to find instructions with images to help you as well.
Best of luck, and keep up the great work.
:)
Sorry to hear you're sick!
Well Get Will Soon
Your the best Alec and Will!!!!
Thanks for these random projects that require outside the box solutions.
Been a admiring your talents for a few years and you never fail to inspire and give a good laugh and even a bit of reflection of self. Although you were not the first to inspire my absolute infatuation with forging, you have been the sole reason I haven't given up my desire to learn this amazing craft.
I've only recently found your channel, and it has quickly become my favourite UA-cam, I don't really watch anything else now, just binge watch here 😂
I have to say, you seem like an awesome dude and a great guy to work with/for! Keep doing what you're doing mate! I could only dream of having a job like yours!
"In the band saw" 🤣 brilliant
11:21 Lift with you legs not your back Alec.
I am surprised if he doesnd have bulging disc from all of the times he has done it wrong. I "felt" pain in my back just seeing that lol
First of all great job! The tables look nice! Love the angle iron legs. I hope you don’t mind some constructive criticism since I’m a furniture maker. The reason it is potato chipped can be several reasons. The first one is it not being fully dried. You can check with a moisture meter. Also what helps prevent warping is orienting the grain correctly. For a table top you want it so the growth rings form an “s“ pattern. You don’t want the crown of the growth rings facing either both up or both down. What you do is orient the crown of the first board up and then the second one down. Or vise versa. If you have more than two boards you just keep doing the same. Hope this helps.
Remedy for you printer error : 1 Is the shipping protection sheet still on the Imaging Unit? Remove the protection sheet. Go to step 2. 2 Open the Front Cover and check the ADC Sensor Window. Is the ADC Sensor window dirty? Go to step 3. Go to step 4. 3 Turn off the power, and gently wipe the ADC Sensor window with a clean dry cloth or cotton swab. After wiping the window, close the Front Cover. Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 4. Complete. 4 Reseat the Toner Cartridges (Y, M, C and K), and check that the lock key is in the lock position. Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 5. Complete. 5 Perform the procedure gToner Motorsh on page 4-31to check the Toner Motors (Y, M, C and K) for rotation. Does each Toner Motor function normally? Go to step 6. Go to step 7. 6 Check the gears of the Dispenser Assy for shape and operation. Are the shape and operation of the gears of the Dispenser Assy normal? Go to step 11. Replace the Dispenser Assy. 7 Check the connectors between the MCU Board and Toner Motors (Y, M, C and K). Are the following connected correctly? • P/J18 • P/J181(Y) • P/J182(M) • P/J19 • P/J191(C) • P/J192(K) Go to step 9. Reconnect all the connectors, then go to step 8. 8 Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 9. Complete. 9 Check the Toner Motor Harness Assy for continuity. Disconnect J18 and J19 from the MCU Board. Disconnect J181(Y)/J182(M)/J191(C)/ J192(K) from the Toner Motors. Is each wire of J18 J181/182 continuous? Is each wire of J19 J191/192 continuous? Go to step 10. Replace the Toner Motor Harness Assy. 10 Check the power to the Dispenser Motor Assy. Disconnect J18 from the MCU Board and measure the voltage across P18-3 ground on the MCU Board. Does the voltage measure about +24 VDC when the interlock switch (Interlock Harness Assy) is pushed? Replace the Dispenser Assy. Replace the MCU Board. 11 Reseat the Imaging Unit. Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 12. Complete. 12 Replace the Toner Cartridge (Y, M, C or K), and check that the lock key is in the lock position. Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 13. Complete. 13 Replace the Imaging Unit. Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Go to step 14. Complete. 14 Reseat the Transfer Belt. connectors? Does the error still occur when the power is turned Off and On? Replace the Transfer Belt. Complete.
Me: wants hammer and grinder
Alec Steele: 10,000 dollars for handle.
Me: nevermind.
They really expensive?
@@mrfixite I dunno they havent come out with prices yet, It's a joke based on the prices that his auctioned projects went for.
I wouldn't be surprised if they're over a hundred dollars since they're actually forged the way they are.
@@keats182 well the average price for a 2-3 pound forged hammer is between 120-200
Glad Will is feeling better? A question for Alec: What are some of the surprises in transitioning from a 2 to 3 person team to a larger team?
Those desks are amazing! I'm so glad you put the extra effort in.. those will be something that will truly inspire as you work at them!
Absolutely love the updates! It's great to see the progress and the work, not just the forging.
Keep it up!
"Will is sick, wish him better"
Me: I am sure you *WILL* Get better soon!
Alec, you could not pick a better young man to forge your hammers!
The new tables look great. You should look into doing some sound dampening for the office. You need something padded/ fabric on the walls or ceiling.
Build an angle iron frame, take the lags out and let the slab of wood rest in the frame. You can attatched it with elongated holes from the bottom of the angle iron into the slabs. Allow it to move across the grain. You may have to “flatten” it a few more times....you absolutely will not be able to constrain the Wood with lag bolts.. it is a cool table. You can easily keep the look with some simple mods.
'' puT mE doWn WilL, Put mE Down! '' - alec steele 2019
Will: puts steel in the band saw
Alec: I’m not that kind of steel!!!
1. start with a flat bar (assuming they're also 10ft pieces and you want 4 out of them)
2. cut to the proper profile (even better if its wide enough flat bar that you can basically split them down the middle diagonally)
3. forge the taper you want (to reach proper height)
4. make another copy (if step 2 isn't viable)
5. wield the 2 pieces together (to get your L shape)
6. grind and polish
7. WIN
Alec! I am tech support for those WorkCentre 6027 machines. The machine is not detecting enough toner coming from your toner cartridge. Pull those toner's out of the machine, put them back in and restart it. The machine will perform a color density test again and if it passes you're good. If not, you'll need a tech. If you call in, you just may get me.
Thank you for the comment and email, David! 🙏🙏🙏
"We need more Steele.." does this mean you're having kids? j/k
MrGoesBoom unless
PUT ME DOWN WILLL!!!! THIS DOESN'T COUNT AS GETTING STEALE
Been watching for two years but I just gotta say again ... these are the best vids on u tube!! The recording , music , editing, what u get up to!!!
Thanks!!!
"Cancer Box" is the best fucking name for a microwave I have ever heard, and you bet I'm stealing that one.
Me doo good smarts for tee shirt 2019
Alec I've watched every episode for yhe past 3 years and that video had to have the best music/audio editing I've ever heard. It fit so well with the video cuts and everything. Just wanted to say good job.
Get well Will. Those tables are going to warp big time in the heated office. All the best.
Great video guys! I would like to give you guys some helpful advice.
1.) I'm assuming you may have the printer issue fixed but Xerox 6505 092-310 Error :
The protection sheet on the imaging unit is probably still on, remove that and the error should go away.
Otherwise, you will need to call Xerox and have it repaired as it can be the sensor circuit went bad.
2.) If you are sitting in the office for more than 2 hours at a time, you MUST think about ergonomics around your your sitting and typing. You can develop painful carpal tunnel issues if you don't have gel pads for your wrists and making sure you have great posture while sitting with your feet on the ground.
You also need to get up every 2 hours and walk around and if you don't...over time, you will develop poor circulation in your legs.
Just trying to pass on information that I have learned over the years being an IT guy.
Step 1: “Imma move to the US of A!” Step 2: “Imma outsource my mfg to Not In The USA!”… (I kid. I’m in Canada. Just amused to death the young blacksmith is just down the road from me. (in Commonwealth distances… it’s a bit of a walk…)
I miss the days of when it was jus Alec his hammer and his forge. I still watch the show but feel its drifted away from what i signed up for.
I scrolled down until I found someone who felt the same.
Alex, the reason that table top warped is it was left outside in the elements before you bought it and probably wasn't kiln dried. Next time you do a woodworking project, consult your neighbor who's a woodworker during your planning and resource gathering stages.
For the printer, look in the manual for info on the CTD sensor and where it's located then either fined and clean it of find and replace it
