Wasting Steel and Catching Up In The Blacksmith Shop
The title says it all, nothing like forging a bunch of stuff and not being happy with it. Notice the lack of talking in this one?

[@dwwoodbuilds]

Great video Jim! Those drawknives are looking good! No comment about the axe head! 😁 Was great seeing you again at MakerCamp! Keep forging!

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

That axe head is bad, reap bad.

[@SilverBack.]

Good luck with the Damascus

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Thanks buddy. I can tell you it went quite well.

[@thijs3514]

[@bruce1816]

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

[@petershale9940]

enjoying watching you work with the forge, keep up the good work cheers.

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Hello Peter. I'm having a blast, finally using this space for its intended purpose.

[@eduardom800]

Mesmerazing. ¿how long it takes you to make an axe or a draw knive? I hope you have them sold quick!!

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Drawknives are three or four hours. Axes I'm trying to dial in and get my process down.

[@TheVze23sqf]

Jim , I always watch and enjoy your videos, but don’t always comment. I hate being repetitive by just saying great job. Creating something out of nothing is an art and you sir are an artist. 👍👍👍

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Thank you Guy. I'm learning, hopefully I can get good at it.

[@rgr3427]

Something about heating that metal and hammering it into what you need or want, amazing. Thinking to myself, what’s he going to do with a solid steel brick, oh, axe head, amazing. The company that shipped your steel must go thru loads of copper staples. It’s a dying craft / art, thanks for keeping it alive sir. Be Safe out there, it’s getting froggy.

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

It is getting nuts. I'm still learning the basics of the smithing but I do enjoy it.

[@alexwilson9311]

Great video Jim good to see steel taking shape and I’m guessing some layered steel is in your future take care 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Had my first go tonight. Not nearly as hard as I thought.

[@howardemery1443]

good to see you again Jim see you on next one

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Hello Howard

[@HOODS]

Once again I had to search for your channel and see what ya been up to. Fun stuff man. I really enjoyed watching you form some steel.

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

I see you've been busy yourself. I like moving that metal.

[@WhiteFox011]

You do have a life off of UA-cam

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

Good morning Jeff. You are right, it's all about balance.

[@twagner6155]

I have a piece of 1 1/2" chrome moly, round that is almost stainless. It would be interesting to forge it but that's not for me. I bought a bunch of stainless that I plan on using for fantasy weapons.

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

That would be pretty cool. You're a man of many talents T.

[@danielw.hanninen1176]

Good to see you out in the shop again Jim. Glad you had a great time at the show, would like to see one myself one day. Have a great week, Dan..

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

You would have a ball with it.

[@jamesharris7868]

Boy that lad of yours has grown up so much since I first saw him he is a big boy now

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

He's a moose. How's life treating you?

[@pamelaarescurrinaga8201]

I certainly do enjoy seeing you put the equipment I watched you make, to work. You are no longer working in a rat's nest.

[@TheTradesmanChannel]

It took me long enough and it's much nicer now.

Your rating on the efficiency scale has gone WAY up. Besides, it is esthetically pleasing to the eye. You just need a chestnut tree.
