  • Thanks to Pine Ridge Burners for sponsoring this episode. Be sure to check out their awesome burner systems when you are in need of new forge. www.pineridgeburner.com/
    In this video we make our brand new gas forge from start to finish from an old round tank. We use a Ribbon Burner from Pine Ridge and all the piping and the blower are from them as well. All we had to do is cast some refractory and make it look pretty with some hand forged hinges and some handles. We just had to do some blacksmithed items on the forge. If you ever wanted to know how to make a propane forge, this is the video for you!

    Awesome all the way around guys. Just one note: please use the correct thread seal tape/dope when piping any flammable gas such as propane. I noticed that some of the thread joints were sealed with the appropriate yellow gas-rated tape and the rest appeared to use the standard white teflon tape. While teflon and PTFE are awesome for their intended purposes they fall a little short for gas piping as the petroleum based propane could eventually eat through or gum up the tape enough to allow leaks to develop. No need to state the obvious but a gas leak next to a hot forge would be a bad day for all. There are several good options for tape, I recommend a combination of yellow thread seal tape coupled with a gas-rated pipe "dope" so as to maximize the seals and to make future disassembly easier. Thanks for the content.

  • @yoshr7424
    @yoshr7424 4 роки тому +2

    How dose the refractory hold up to cracking and chipping with the K-wool underneath? Seems like it would be like pouring a concrete slab on top of a marshmallow. I have worked with both materials professionally for the past 11years, building and retrofitting various power plant components, and have never seen this attempted. I'm truly curious as to the durability of the insulation. Because if it works well, its a lot better solution for the home-gamer than high temp zinc paint systems that are traditionally used.

    @SKnight1968 4 роки тому

    *Hi guys!*
    You asked people to give you suggestions as to what to forge next that would not only challenge you and all your skills but also be an incredible and highly collectible item. Here's what I think would cover all those basis's, Prince Thor's War Axe that he used before he was worthy of Mjolnir and also the weapon he always returned to when found unworthy of Mjolnir in a few original story lines in Marvel Universe Comics.
    The Axe is named *"Jarnbjorn"* also made out of Uru metal in the comic books but with no worthy clause, it's one of Thor's mightiest weapons he ever used before Mjolnir and was induced with great powers only outmatched by Mjolnir, Stormbreaker, Gungnir the King Odin's spear and the OdinSword named "Ragnarok".
    The challenge of building such and Axe would/should be because it should be forged out of Titanium (only) with a wooden handle and sized to the original size in the comics or as closest as possible. There shouldn't be a huge discrepancy in life size vs the comic book size or have a "that's close enough" mentality/possibility in order to cut corners or make it easier to build. I have looked everywhere and yet no forgeries has built this battle Axe yet. So it would be a first, if you would so choose to build it. I truly believe that this Axe should absolutely be built out of Titanium to give it the respect it warrants with all the steps required to make it the strongest by going through the complete steps required from the normalization process cycles, the heat/hardening quench phase and up to the tempered full process, since the properties of this metal is, it's the strongest metal from weight to strength/hardness ratio, Titanium is the only metal that should be considered. I've seen smaller axes and hammers built out of Titanium and from what I've seen, no one has even come close to building such a weapon. That's my suggestion, what do you think?
    Full disclosure...
    I also suggested this build to "Alec Steele" with no replies from my email to giving him the exact message I just wrote to you (Yeah it's a copy/paste message, except for the "full disclosure" part and I didn't tell Alec Steele that I also suggested this Axe to you).
    Whoever does it, has to know that this build would be a multiple youtube video build that would attract possibly millions of viewers for each video, which is a win/win situation for you guys in that department.
    Also, at the end of this build, being a one of a kind since made out of Titanium, this would end up being a highly sought after Thor collectible item that should fetch a good price since there's so many high end Thor collectors out there. And this Axe being a one of a kind collectible item since there's no one yet that has undertaken this build of Thor's battle Axe *"Jarnbjorn"* in any kind of steel, so if you built it and built it out of Titanium, this Axe could end up in a biding war from high end anything Thor collectors.

    hey guys, not trying to be a troll, but white teflon tape is only rated for water connections, not gas connections, you should really be useing the yellow teflon tape for this

    • @JainZar1
      @JainZar1 4 роки тому +2

      IIRC from my studies in building- and energyengineering the yellow is required so that even if the steel pipe isn't yellow a technician can stop before he anglegrinds on the wrong pipe. The properties of the tape are exactly the same.

    • @StopTryingSoHard
      @StopTryingSoHard 4 роки тому +3

      Yellow tape is a thicker form of low density PTFE tape, white tape is thinner, and pink is high density PTFE tape.
      The thicker tape should be more likely to assure there’s no gas leak. Connections should still be tested for leaks though of course.
      Pink is just to make it easier to unscrew the pipe later.
      There’s really nothing inherently different about them if you use them right.
      Personally I only use pipe dope.

      It's probably better to use vegetable or canola oil. It's safer to use and actually works better.

    Boy you guys sure make some purdy Fire an' Steel pictures! Back in the day, when Pine Ridge was no more than a gleam in it's father's eye, they had a saying in film schools, "Movies must MOVE!" More UA-cam producers should figure this out. "If the content is moving, keep the camera still; if the content is still, keep the camera moving. If both must be still move the POV Shot/Reverse Shot varying the lengths of the cuts; if both must be moving syncopate the movements between one another." You have this down, so pat yourselves on the back.
    Now, the next factor is the audio track. Sound consistency is the big hurdle. Matt's voice went from too treble to too bass. His natural speaking voice is kind of a reedy tenor. This is always a bitch to mike, particularly in sound environments that are excessively live, like most shops. Most of the slicker blacksmith videos get around this with voiceover, which I 'm sure you got very tired of in the past. So did I. But realtime mikeing is a realtime problem. In voiceover sound is information, too much voiceover means sharing too much information. In realtime sound is movement. That's why you have to be either speaking and not working or working and not speaking. Otherwise the movements clash. I don't know what post production resources you have to mix and modify realtime sound but I'd say that's the next videographer's hurdle for you.
    You are doing splendidly with music, particularly in the use of syncopating beats and baselines. UA-cam is rich in these resources and I wish more producers were using them as well as you do. This is particularly the case in two areas: slo-mo and the power hammer shooting. Slo-mo has to be watched like a hawk or it slips over into gimmickry. But in the shop context slo-mo gives you far more lucid control of moving objects, coordinating the speed of processes that are difficult to shoot straight because they are either too fast or too slow for realtime treatment. You are making excellent use of the music to keep slo-mo as technique from overpowering what objects in motion the slo-mo is being used for. A music beat that is either a little faster or slower than the slo-mo itself is one the best tools for this. Good job.
    Most shots of power hammer work fail to convey the delicacy that the technique is capable of. You are doing excellently here. Having music of multiple beats to match to the fine variations in motions, jumping from one on-beat motion to a different on beat motion, then syncopating the motions back and forth across the beats is something you're getting really, really slick with. Have fun!

      Karmakshanti Vyapini thanks man! We are still figuring out some of the audio stuff. It will only get better. Most of this video was shot in a rush, but I do have some big projects coming soon where I cut no corners. I will be interested in hearing your opinions on some of those videos. Thanks for you thought out comment! I will look into your suggestions!

    What are the advantages of a ribbon forge over a atmospheric forge?

    • @danielcrawford7315
      @danielcrawford7315 4 роки тому +1

      1st imho is savings in fuel. Inlet psi is lower 1-3 psi vs 18- 25 psi for atmospheric burner. So one uses less gas for the forge.
      2 more wide spread heat cone. So less of a blast spot or spots in the forge and on the work piece.
      3 in many instances higher forge temps can be maintained more steadily imho.
      4 less noise from the burner ie not so much a jet nosel effect from sucking in ambient air and gas mixing and brushing thru the intake orifice. Imho.
      5 burner last longer as only the refractory is flame kissed as opposed to the ambient air system actually being in the forge.
      Now those are in my opinion the benefits of a ribbon burner in brief.
      So the down sides now.
      1st higher initial cost for the burner. Unless you cust and cast your own.
      2 higher cost due to the need for a blower system and gas valves and piping
      3 a good lining is a must kaowool, castable refractory and HT100 is pretty good a must. However done right it will last a decade or more b4 replacing the castable.
      So all in all for the 1st year of medium work load cost will be coming close to equaling out
      By the end of the forges lining life you should be money ahead in fuel savings and redlining savings. Again imho.
      🙏 be blessed now

    I been checking online watching videos and everyone says something different. Yours looks like 8 in burner with 4-5 inch on Both sides but others say leave an inch or 2 in bother sides. Is it the pine ridge Burner that lets you do that? You guys don’t answer these but I’m tired of reading forms I asked pine ridge guess I’ll find out.
