..Congratulations James !! and the Other James,.. aw heck all the James's. What better thing to make with drill bit damascus, a drilling hammer... Good job Tim...!!!
Glad to see you still have a helping hand LOL
I wish I knew you personally. You really seem to be a good decent man who I'd have been proud to have as a friend. I'm going to become a patron because of the quality of your videos. I always learn something each time. 👍🏻
Thanks Tim, I saw some squares in the pattern from the end pieces, just wonder what the pattern would be like if it was forged sideways instead of end on?
Wow, really late to the party! I got super excited when I realized that you were making a billet for a hammer.
A couple of thoughts about the high speed steel:
1. I know many high alloy steels like high speed steels have to be kept at high heat for long periods of time during heat treatment. This is because of the exotic elements need more time to form carbides and such. With that logic you might need to let high speed steels sit for longer at higher heats if you decide to try something like that again.
2. It could also be that the steels were too dissimilar to each other. Think forge welding stainless with more simple steels. At the very least the expansion rates would create difficulties.
3. Next would be who made the steel. I remember in the early 2000’s people were trying to put cheap tools from places like China or India into their pattern welding but it would fail. Could be many reasons but the quality of steels could be a problem for some materials you put in your billets.
Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for the info. and thanks for watching.
It was funny enough when you made the handy tongs, but this was next level funny stuff. Damascus came out cool, I think it deserves better than to be a hammer.
Woohoo!!! Awesome! Email is sent, Tim. Thanks for the "congrats", guys!
You rock
We need a contest for handle too finish. a knife anyting you can use 8 hours to do it that's more, is just for fun maybe the winner will take home the blade
Sweet Glasses there.. Who makes them? Would Love to get a pair
You should make a climbing ice pick so you can do another cliff hanger 😂 badum tss
your tongs with the hands are hands above all the rest. even if they don't hold the best you can cup them and use on round stock if you make them for sale i know the will sell love your vid. be well and be safe
cockatoobirdman bill I was thinking the same thing! Those would be sold out in no time! I think even non-blacksmiths would enjoy them as a piece of art!
You bet just think about using to turn hot dogs on the grill and you are right they are art, and you can tell your friends that you can put your hands in the fire and not get burned lol!
Yes it always cracks me up to see those, I love it when the fingers get red hot.
Note: comment is all theoretical. I'm a big ole' novice here, and I've never done a tube damascus (or any damascus). I only know from chemistry and play-doh and _super_ basic smithing skills, so this could be entirely useless.
Fill the voids in the tubing with iron or steel powder? Or even grinder dust (which should be a mix of sandpaper grit and steel)? I just figure you'd need something alloyable to fill in all those gaps - a bit like flux, but, you know, iron-bearing - when you're doing any kind of filled-tube damascuses.
Actually, scratch the grinder dust. Thinking about it, that's all sparks, which means it'd be partially oxidized and wouldn't alloy well. Stick with iron, maybe doped with a little regular flux.
Four dislikes? Who in the hell would dislike this video? Obviously people who have never tried to make canister Damascus let alone Drill bit canister Damascus. Amazing man!
Wonderful show as usual always try new things because even in failure there's the success of experience
Lololol HSS is not good for forging. I had some 3/8" drill rod once that I tried to use for a rivet. It crumbled to dust. I think its cause they powder the steel and bake it. They also harden them in liquid nitrogen lol
Man those pickup tongs are so bad ass, I'd love to buy a set.
People actually left because of the cliffhanger? Jeez. I geuss they shouldn't have been here to begin with. They were probably the type that was only here to complain or troll your videos.
I love your tongs, they look quite handy.
Clapping your little hands made me happy as hell
You should make a shovel out of the auger Damascus btw lol
How is he touching that with his bare hands?!?!😱
Helping hands tongs! Love them. Great stuff, thanks for haring your journey.
You bet!
new subscriber. love your videos, and humor. keep scrappy and Floyd busy.
Thanks for the sub!
You may know this now but you can get some high Nickle powdered steel similar to 15N20 called 4600KC or 4800KC from usaknifemaker.com i have used thsi with some high carbon steels like 1080 or eventhe closest to true black O1 to make a really dark contrasting pattern.
Thank you didnt know where to find it.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the info.
@@BIGDOGFORGE your welcome.
Seriously people unsubscribed because you left them on a cliffhanger........how immature can you get..... we have a saying here "there's nought queer like folk" which in non Scottish is there's nothing more weird than people lol
All ways interesting thank you
Hi Tim. I love your work and your sense of humor is wicked. I subscribe to both you and also Alec Steele who is from England like me. It would be great to see you guys collaborate on a project because he also likes Damascus. Thanks Tim .
Masonry bits work though
Not the high speed steels fault...The coatings on drill bits can be a plethora of things and they won't let the steels inside fuse together.
HAHA love the little hands on your pickup tongs.
Nice tong heheheh i love it
The hand headed tongs tickled me good! owf my sides !! Subscribed for more hand tongs adjusting billets!
Wild ,my Facebook name is James McMillan and in most of my videos I put “aka James McMillan”
Great video. Love the hands tongs! You should try twisting a long basket and put that in a canister.
I LOVE the little hands LMAO
Love the tongs
I love the little hands forged into those tongs you're using on the press lol, great creative touch, I might steal one day!!! you're videos are great, I wish I lived close to other smiths like you!
i like you
Congrats James!!!
You lost subscribers over having a reveal video at a later time? What a lame reason to unsubscribe.
I didn’t see a vapor hole on this canister. Does a stainless canister not need it ?
Que po é esse
The tongs! I enjoyed watching them in use here more than I enjoyed watching you make them. XD
Cool! I can’t believe someone unsubscribed....
Honestly blades are not that hard to do depending on material and queens process
That pattern is awesome, that would look good on a small hatchet or viking style axe
I believe hss has boron in it? I'd have to Google the alloy I guess.
Did you Normalise them befor tring to weld them if not give it a try
Tim, great job on the second drill bit Damascus. Congrats James
Look at a drill bit next time you break one. It looks like cast of some kind.
I have a shit ton of them kind of bits, awesome now i have a use for them.
Ahh, watch out for your hands 😉
Big Dog I love the tongs. The clapping was a nice touch.
I wouldn't mind working with a billet of this, though I'm a Damascus snob and naturally think mine is the best lol. Great work, sir.
Thanks 👍
Never be sorry for eating candy brother.
Did u say Jim McG?
Would horse shoes or razor blades work?
I think so. Thanks for watching.
@@BIGDOGFORGE I couldn't find a video with such materials being used to make damascus steel. Thanks for the answer. 👍
love the little hands on the tongs
Annealing the bits beforehand helps.
Those hand tongs are just hilarious!.
Congratulations James McMillan
Are they some kind of carbide?
those tongs are amazing XD
How can I send you a package sir?
great billett that should make a nice hammer or knife by the way can you use oxyclean as a flux for welding big bear forge said he never tried it but told me to watch out for out gasing fumes fron it when heated thx
Yea, those tongs!! Had me lmao!! Love it!!
They are awesome! D:
It looked like wormwood Damascus lol
I primarily stick with what works but it's great to experiment so hopefully one of these days I get to meet you and give you a bunch of carbon steel cable to pass on or do with as wished then there's a few more different kinds of metals that you might really be interested in some of them got a lot of nickel in there towards non-ferrous anymore if they're real hard to work with
what is your press tonnage?
As always Tim your ambition to try anything to see what sort of pattern you get . This is something I really like to do here at my shop. The exciting thing is when you put it in the etch and pull it out to see what got birthed from the experiment.. Martin
I'd still like to donate a bunch of different kinds of crane cable to you and the fan base and the ones that want to learn how to do it
Mike, Crane cable huh I'd be interested for a donation sir.. Martin
All that I have has a poly core cable. It's aggravating to unwind it a wind it back. I would be more than happy with good cable.
Michael Robertson can you send me some
justin estell sure I can get some to you, I've been cutting them home roughly about 12in and there all roughly inch and a quarter diameter and I'll probably have to work out shipping right now I'm working on my disability because of a bad back
justin estell I think I've got two different kinds basically ones rotational in the others non rotational which is tighter wound rotational is more like old rope used to look like, it might be easier for you to try the non rotational cuz it's definitely tight around but I can send both
Thanks for taking the time to show us what you do, entertaining and educational
15:06 which chemical this is ???
Regular everyday drills are normally M2 or some other nasty stuff - heat treating temp for M2 is 2250 degrees - that's its 'critical' temp. The wood augers, at best, were 4340 or something similar and will forge weld at about 1800 deg.
Not surprised they wouldn't weld but it would have looked cool if it worked.
Awesome all around, the tongs,the billet, but mostly that cobalt blue bottle in the background... is that Valhalla Brew, Odin's Ale? My wife and grandson found me a bottle of that about a year ago. Sadly,it was empty when i got it.
Hey there "BIG DOG" love your vids they have inspired me to have a go at blacksmithing..
I was wandering if you could try heating the drill bits before they go into the canister ? Just a thought I will now subscribe again excellent work and very inspiring
Nice video! Got me to scribe
Really good content 👌
In love with these handy-Tongs
Thanks
I really like the look ..would you lose or gain more pattern by folding it?
it makes sense that the HSS bits nearly shatter when you break one & those auger bits just try to rip your arm off
nice demonstration there proving that theory of non compliance in workability
but, I have recently been working with some HSS structural steel that is special order and need to try some blade testing with it
BD nice work..
Excellent video neighbor you just live up the road from me about 3 hours depending on traffic, love all your videos and your excellent
Nice video how much Pressure can this press build up in tonns ?
Nice, Great job. Thanks for sharing......
If it was me I'll be thinking about high carbon steel crane cable, is the quickest you can pull out something that will do the job
Just a learning experience as I see it. For somebody with NO experience that is good.

Very nice!
Next time you having to go to Longview via I-5 were in between Olympia and Cialis
Pretty
I know what happened. You needed to aneal the tips of the high speed drill bits first because they are harden to the point of shattering.
You had me at Forging a Burnt Oatmeal Cookie.. ROTFLMAO
It's like if Bob Ross (the painter) was a blacksmith :)
I'm only a minute and a half in and I can tell you should have poured metal filings in to fill the voids
Yeah Tim once those drill bits get reheated again they turn to a crumble I heard it was some how to do with nitrogen
Still in the process of chopping that stuff up it takes forever and so hard to cut with the factory grease in it
You've got some pretty tough hands... Just grabbing that red hot steel like that
Awesome result and very nice vid. Liked and subbed !!
