Would love to buy that off you for my daughters to use in their jewelry making.
We live and learn. Great video. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. God Bless.
Would like to point out that any deficiency in your work now becomes exponentially more valuable as you become more and more known. Us patreons support you and your work and we would love the chance to have it as you planned!!!
Great you not afraid to say I failed.
You always teach me something and you do like short teachings, You must be afraid of my short attention spand,
But I stay focused with the better teachers as yourself Sir
Thanks
I don’t even care that there’s a crack I know it sucks but I love tiny anvils way too much! Great Job John!
John i don't think anybody would turn it down you are a
Craftsman and it is a great
Piece of work 🤙👍✌
first off, dude, congrats on having a good flow of work as a full time blacksmith, can't wait to get my flatter.
as to the giveaway, honestly man, I'd love to see you do something that *you* have been wanting to do. doesn't matter what it is, I think we're all just happy to support ya.
I love your videos. I am waiting for my clay to dry in my first forge. I am marking a herb grinder like you made. I can’t wait to get started. You are a great blacksmith. Keep going
Very cool John! I'd gladly take it just as it is.
You deserve way more likes man. Good work
There's just something special about watching ANVILS being made. And knowing Civilization pretty much was created either directly or indirectly on one... Every Nations flag should have an ANVIL on it...
HEY BROTHER, I'M GLAD YOU'RE GETTIN THAT MUCH WORK COMIN IN
I think we would all enjoy some videos of you working on those production runs. Maybe some live streams, or videos that require less editing so you can focus on the forging. Not all of your videos need to be the same format as these.
💯 👍
Been waiting for another video. Welcome back!
AFAIK (mostly from watching Joey Van derSteeg's excellent anvil fabrication series), anvils of non-trivial size were/are nearly always made by either casting, or by forge welding via buildup (standard welding probably incurs too much stress). The direct forging method (e.g. squish/draw a single mass into shape), only seems practical (to my admittedly NON-experienced eye) for something like a jeweler's anvil, or slightly larger.
Anyway, I look forward to following along ... seems like a fun and educational experimemt. +1 👍
Awsome glad things are good
Congratulations on the the all the business your getting. Stay safe sir
wow, amazing!!👍
Great to see how things have been taking off for you John, always enjoy seeing what beautiful pieces you create. Perhaps you should give some thought to hiring production assistance for your UA-cam content, may make things easier as you continue to grow your business.
awesome video. so glad to see your not missing hahah
Very cool!! I have an idea for a custom knife. I been looking around for someone I can pay to make it for me!
New challenge! How big a danish axe can you forge on a mini anvil?
I would say win
Sorry it took to cracking.
If you had to venture a guess...what caused the cracking sirSir?
Could you forgeweld a toolsteel face to it to alleviate the stresses as Joey does?
Great video sirSir and nice anvil.
🙏blessed days now and well wishes
Crawford out 🧙♂️
There might have been micro cracking under the surface that began to spread under heavy use.
@@OldHickoryForge yes sirSir.
So can one bring it back up to forge welding temps and get the cracks to seal or is that too much hassle and not guaranteed to work...or could you forge weld a 1/2" or 3/8" face to it?
Eh I guess that would change the weight though.
Idk I just heard Joey van der Steeg talking about how a face plate will help hold cracks together and reinforce forgewelds
@@danielcrawford7315 it would make more sense in my case just to start over. He makes his quite a bit differently
Giveaway... Hatchet!
It's good that your work is in demand n your keeping busy. Too bad about the crackin on the face. To go through all that work and have that happen in the end result really sucks. Great day for weight
If your integrity won't allow you to send it out (imperfect) as a gift, put it up for auction for charity. Everyone knows what they're getting when they bid for it. You might be surprised. Hate to see so much fine work, go to waste.
I've already got a plan for something better. Hopefully should have a good bit of time to film this weekend
Despite the cracks, it looks amazing! Great job!
Gostei, abraço aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I am really happy for your growth. Also i really liked the vibe of this video. Felt lile you really enjoyed making this little anvil.
How is the blacksmith drill press. Im interested in getting one, wondering if its worth it for no electric drill
Hahaha I’m a finish carpenter who has taken up smithing! You’re stand needs about as much work as my forging does. Glad I found you on here! Love your channel.
You continue to inspire me. Absolutely amazing work!
How about a set of tiny tongs?! Maybe something scaled to match a tiny anvil if you end up putting those into production? Great video though!
A good learning experience for me, so thanks for sharing what I know you consider a fail.
Very cool! Just realized it was you I bought a hammer from on etsy yesterday.
Thank you I and my son enjoyed work when your fit , well and the work is there.
Excellent work. Love that little guy.
If you don't want to give away that little anvil, would you sell it instead?
Nice effort mate, put it on your shelf and keep it as a lesson
Thanks for the heads up on the videos,
Making mini anvils is so much fun
not very good you are doing it too slow
Nicely done sir!
Sweet build!!!
👍
That was awesome!! I need to give this a try!🔥⚒💪🏻
Great job!
I would love to have that mini anvil. Now you just need to make a tiny hammer and tongs and raffle them off. $$$😁😎
No learning experience is a fail bro. That thing is pretty cool.
I collect small and miniature anvils. It would be cool to add more to the collection.
This isn't a fail, It looks great.
This is going to be good
A few small cracks after been smashed by a 8 pound hammer wow .
I wouldn't hit on my 300 pound anvil with a 8 pounder. :)
Your loss then
It also wasn't an 8 pounder
