    USING THE POWER HAMMER WE FORGE A CUT OFF TOOL FOR THE ANVIL HARDY/HARDIE HOLE.
    0:42 FIRST WE FULLER IN TO ISOLATE MATERIAL. YOU CAN DO THIS WITH A STRIKER OR ALONE IN THE SAME WAY.
    02:30 THEN FORGE OUT TO FIT THE HARDY/HARDIE HOLE, THEN UPSET SO IT SITS FLAT TO THE ANVIL.
    05:54 THEN WE FULLER AGAIN TO CREATE A LIP, YOU DONT HAVE TO DO THIS, ITS JUST FOR LOOKING NICE.
    09:25 USING A FULLER AGAIN WE PUSH THE MATERIAL DOWN AND SPREAD OUT FOR SUPPORT ON THE EDGE OF THE HARDY TOOL THAT MEETS THE ANVIL FOR STABILITY.
    11:30 FORGE OUT A TAPER,
    16:38 THEN SHARPEN IT TO 60 DEGREES FOR A HOT CUT, 30 DEGREES FOR A COLD CUT.
    16:54 THEN CLEAN UP, IT DOESNT NEED HARDENING. BUT YOU CAN HARDEN IT BUT TAKE THE CORNERS OFF THE BASE TO STOP IT MARKING THE ANVIL.

      @@workingwithiron Oof I feel you. I've done something similar myself on the 'Tree' sign post commission we are/were working on. Too much for it to make linear sense, it'd be a jump from forging out the branches and shaping them to painting a finished sign post. I just didn't have time to film everything the team were doing and meet the deadline as well. Hopefully I'll be able to fill in the gaps when we can get back in to the workshop. I'm at high risk being knackered and all so it won't be any time soon :(

      Thanks Bryson, I love a nice looking tool so had to do it this way. Wanted to show the fuller technique too as it's easier than what I used to do before I was taught this way. Thanks for stopping by 👍

    • @reigninoel
      @reigninoel 4 роки тому

      Agreed. It's important to take pride in one's work, and not just settle for "meh, close enough". That being said, there is a place for rough and improvised tooling(something I'm sure that poor piece of 10mm round used for the fullering can attest to. But hey, mild steel stock is essentially a consumable).

    Nice 2 questions 1)did you heat treat and how 2)did you end up cutting it shorter after your original cutting as it looked still too long

    • @workingwithiron
      @workingwithiron  4 роки тому +1

      no heat treat on this one.. yes, i had to cut it again, same way as before. i will use the offcuts for something else. i had to use more stock than needed to be able to hold onto it to fuller under the hammer and i would have cut it while it was square in section but to be honest i couldnt be arsed to cut through with a chisel, and couldnt be arsed to wait for it to cool to cut with a grinder either. im a lazy bugger lol

  • @lenblacksmith8559
    @lenblacksmith8559 4 роки тому

    Lovely Nathan, just a few questions looks like you need a good fuller under the power hammer like at the start. The old round rod soon started to get a curve. And did you make all those tools in the smithy. Did you build that smithy, and those tongs at the start with the funny twist they caught my eye mate. Could you show us those tongs one time, would appreciate it. And the edge doesn't seem real sharp any reason for that? Cheers mate well done.

    • @workingwithiron
      @workingwithiron  4 роки тому +1

      Regarding the fuller.... I'm trying to show a different way of doing things, using a bar stock rather than a fuller tool. We have Fuller's here but I'm showing alternatives. Not my forge, I didn't make any of the
      tools here, the owner did. The forge is an alldays and onions double hearth with fabricated hood, very common in the UK. Will make a set of those tongs for a video as I love them. The edge is sharp, it's way over 60 degrees, it's the heat of the bar that was the issue, it was what I call cold. I forgot to add the final.shot so put it in the gas furnace to heat up but ran out of gas and have no more due to what's going on and delivery 😒. Thanks for asking, that's what I love about all this! 👍

    What steel did you use? (If it was mentioned in the vid I'm sorry for asking dumb questions, I must have missed it). Since you mention it doesn't need hardening I'm assuming something pretty tough.

    • @workingwithiron
      @workingwithiron  4 роки тому +2

      its at the beginning of the vid, always say what it is during measurements before forging. EN8 though. it could be mild steel as long as you cut stuff hot it will hold up.

      @@workingwithiron Thanks. I'm a total amateur, I have made a couple of hammers and a couple handled top tools, but so far pretty light-duty ones that I didn't feel really needed any heat treat at all, particularly since I use scrapped jackhammer bits for that, and those are made out of some pretty tough stuff.

      @@benperkins10 no real need for heat treating mild steel, case hardening is a thing but pointless in a hot cut. just keep an angle of 60 degrees. and work the material to be cut as hot as possible and dont let it go below orange while cutting, like i did in the end of the video, that was wayyyyyyy too cold for cutting, keep the cutting tool cold and you will be fine. if it distorts sharpen it again, thats the beauty of mild steel, but it will be a consumable, meaning it wont stay perfect and depending on how much use you throw at it depends on lifetime. ive tapered mild steel flat in a competition before as nobody had a chisel, it worked but i certainly didnt put it in the toolbox after.
