  • More axe experiment. I'm pretty sure this has never been done before.
    What do you think about this axe restoration - makeover?
    Should I stop it?
    This project is just for fun, my hope is to inspire others to make something just for fun. I know this kind of handle it's heavy (4kg or 9lbs) and very unpractical to make but I still love it as experiment and interesting piece overall.
    I just started to list some of the stuff I use for my projects in this amazon storefront:
    www.amazon.com/shop/blackbear...
    It's affiliate marketing, so if you order something from here you'll help the channel for free! Thank you!
    Index of operation and materials:
    0:15 Electrolysis: water and sodium carbonate solution, parts connected to negative side and steel sacrificial anodes to positive sice of a DC power supply (car battery charger). 2-3 hrs at 10amp.
    1:52 Hot wire foam cutter machine and high density foam (kind used as home insulation).
    3:00 Smoothing the foam sharp tool and 240 sandpaper.
    3:40 Gluing foam piece with hot glue.
    4:10 Regular white plaster brushed on foam to help with cast quality.
    4:45 Lost foam mold preparation by sifting fine sand (I'm using burned out petrobond sand but any fine and dry sand would work)
    5:24 Adding sodium carbonate as degassing agent and "lite salt" (a mix of potasium cloride and sodium cloride) as flux to the molten aluminum.
    6:18 First try failed. Removing aluminum parts from head
    6:26 Second try with different feeder configurations
    7:20 Removing feeders with metal cutting band saw and hand saw
    8:04 Refining aluminum parts with rasp file and sandpaper
    8:32 Shaping wood key
    9:05 Drilling 5mm holes for brass pins
    9:20 Shaping handle with bandsaw, rasp, file and sandpaper
    11:33 Burning wood with torch
    11:56 Boiled linseed oil applied to wood
    12:20 Re-grinding bevels and sharpening on belt grinder.
    Thank you a lot for watching. See you next week!

      use wd-40 for cuts, sands, mills, drills on aluminum
      let the bandsaw cut. forcing the material through may result in injury
      if the belt sander were to catch the material may result in injury
      plz limit reaching over/around spinning parts

      It’s beautiful and unique! As an engineer, I recommend you hang it on the wall and admire it! Under heavy, repeated use the aluminum will probably crack and shear right under the head. But I repeat; it’s beautiful!

    I’ve been restoring axes for about 5 years now. I picked it up after watching wranglerstar and falling in love with the small forest axe like him. This project was incredibly interesting to watch and I love the aesthetics of the finished product. I don’t think you were looking for function over form. The design is just that of someone who doesn’t know axes that well. Palm swell totally out of proportion, key hole integral should never be anywhere near an axe, you didn’t even orient the grain of the handle in the proper direction.
    That being said, I don’t think your goal was to make the next granfors brœks small forest, but to incorporate unusual and interesting techniques on something they don’t normally apply to, and personally I found it incredibly entertaining and fascinating to watch.
    Very awesome stuff, you got my subscription.

    @quingloquinglo4342 5 років тому +634

    This head is from a Mattock, not an axe. It is, fundamentally, a digging tool that can be used in almost any tough soil conditions to either loosen, dislodge or dig. It is designed for penetrating soil through to the root structures below the stump, if not to annihilate a rotten stump entirely. Using it to cut perpendicular to the tracheids in softwood/heartwood is simply a misuse of what is closer to a smashing instrument than cutting one - the surface area of the bladed edges are simply an aid to penetration through a wide range of soil conditions, root structures, stones and rocks. While a slightly sharpened edge can be useful in certain structures with excellent soil quality, each edge is designed to withstand direct blows to any rock that might be found under the soil and not result in any lasting deformation to it.

      Yes. Its a mattock. I’ve been looking for one myself. I used to have one and damned if I don’t know where it walked off to.
      If I restored this one I would wire wheel it clean, fit a hardwood handle to it, and add an oil finish. All of this casting and keyholing and such is all very skillful I admit. And we all have an opinion on how to fix things. In the end we do what we want and if others don’t like it they can make their own damned video....right?

    What you have there is a "pulaski" tool used for fighting forest fires. "The Pulaski is a special hand tool used in fighting wildfires which combines an axe and an adze in one head. Similar to a cutter mattock, it has a rigid handle of wood, plastic, or fiberglass. The Pulaski is used for constructing firebreaks, able to both dig soil and chop wood"

    @Dr_V 6 років тому +187

    Interesting idea, but there's a reason why you don't re-invent the wheel. A standard one piece wooden handle is far stronger, your contraption will break at the wood/aluminum joint if you push it too hard. Adding a metal collar around those "langets" or compression screws between them (instead of those simple pins) would strengthen the joint, but eventually the aluminum will deform or crack under stress anyway.

      The anode is where the oxidation of the metal is happening whereas the Axe is reduced from the oxide to the metal, the aluminum is the connector between both anodes, he uses "two" anodes to cover more space

    Not very practical, overall, a conventional solid-wood handle is going to be more solid in the long run. But darn if it doesn't look cool, man! That was a fun project to watch. Lots of work there, and it came out looking really neat. Props for the hard work and fun idea! More sharpening, though! That edge needs more!

    May I suggest using acetone to remove the foam core first? That way when you pour the metal the foam doesn't cause the flame, black ash and horrible chemicals into the air. Its also a lot safer, and gives you a better cast. :)
    Just leave the acetone to sit for a while (even 12 hours) while it eats away the foam.

      It’s a Pulaski. A specialized tool for a specific job.
