I was about to modify this hammer with no thought of making a video. Then at the last minute it seemed to be a worthy idea.
Hopefully you thought so too!

I like,how there isnt any of that annoying music that usually comes with these types of videos. The sounds of the crafting process are much more enjoyable to listen to.
Many_Lives yes. Even the bits where it’s sped up like the hammering bits
I'm a fan of grinding, filing, hammering spam noise's with the narration.
Agreed
@@harrigoldsmith8280 🤣 Feels like he's hitting me with a metal tool and talking about the engineering
I agree
The star of the show... This guys sander. Flipping gorgeous machine.
*guy's
@@kyrie26 appreciated. I'll leave it as is so that others may also learn from it.
Low that sand band has to be expensive.
Made here in Australia 👌👍
Absolutely...YES
Never mind the hammer,
That SANDER !
I want more info on the work table
I came here to say just this!
That is nice, I like the tilting capability. I built this one last month!

Love that sander. Where can i get one
Please tell me where I can get one of those Sanders??
I'm more impressed by how you made that wedge than anything else... damn that was slick
Yeah I found the woodwork far more impressive that the grinding
Never thought I was going to type this but,
That's a nice hammer
Seeing how to forge a hammer from stock steel would be a real treat. I hope you decide to produce it.
Watch Alec steel then
Will do! Thanks for the recommendation.
@@DanHoke and zh fabrications does some gorgeous hammers too.

Old hickory forge is good too!
Hello from Ladysmith, BC, Canada. I have no need for a blacksmith's hammer but having watched this video and having been around horses most of my younger years I am now trying to talk myself out of making one. This is a wonderful demonstration of your ideas and skills. Thank you and have a great 2020.
I like to use a coarse flap disc on an angle grinder for shaping handles, messy but quick and actually quite controllable.
You should start a Scrap Metal Challenge series just so you can take your Scrap Wood Challenge intro and turn it into a metal song!
That's a FINE idea! Cheers! Chris.
Scrap brass challenge, scrap steel challenge
It’s rusted, it’s dull
But some of the lead is good

Yes, what Justin said. Do that, great idea
That would be really cool.
Collab with 331Erock.
An unbalanced (face heavy) hammer is actually really nice for knife making. The weight helps keep the flat faced straight down without tilting sideways and making divots.
So jealous of your belt grinder!
Thank you so much for this video My sister is new to blacksmithing and she is having a hard time finding hammers with the right size and weight for her. This video shows a good alternative.
Yas!!! When you start to forge your blacksmith Hammer I definitely want a video series on that. Still looking for property but will be building my own blacksmith Forge soon after I get some property so I will definitely need that video
Blacksmith apprentices start out making their own tools once they graduate from sweeping up the shop and manning the bellows. I would love to see videos whilst you are making yours. Sending lots of love ❤ from sunny 🌅 Arizona 🌵 USA 🗽
I started watching this because I was curious as to why you wouldn't just buy a cross pein hammer. I can fully see why, beautiful craftsmanship.
Thank you
Incredible show of craftsmanship for sure! Thanks for the show.
Nice job! Thanks for sharing
Have you looked at - black bear forge - he has a lot of useful vids, he has one about avoiding tendon injury and talks about handle design and how it impact grip which can cause elbow tendon injury. He also uses a cross pein with the pien rotated 45 degrees from normal, I couldn’t figure it out until I noticed that the pein falls in line with the anvil when you take a normal comfortable stance in front of the anvil. All his stuff is worth watching.
I'll have to check the video about avoiding tendon injury, that would be really helpful! Thanks! :)
The latest "that works" vlog/whatever has some hammering tips too, I tried the technique they mentioned today and clearly need more practice.
Beautifully done. I'm glad you decided to film it!
Amazing craftsmanship
Beautiful work
Thoroughly enjoyed the video. It was when you put the bevel on the handle end that I realised just how hard that wood is. A good choice for the application I'm sure.
Holymoly that grinder moves a lot off material!

Beautifully made
1:25 am, second day of Coronavirus lock down... got lost! Watching someone grinding a hammer... hi from South of France. One love
I hope you are doing well...
From California, the Bay Area were holding in there..
Hahaha me too.... ottawa, Canada
Beautiful hammer. Love watching people make tools. Great work
This is so good. Love the homemade steel hammer wedges too; why didn’t I think of that!
I work for Vaughan and Bushnell mfg co. Out of Bushnell, IL USA and we make some of the best hammers and hand tools in the world. I work in the forge department. I started as a hammer operator and worked my way into maintenance and now I'm die maintenance in the forge department. I love my job and I love the forge department. It does get extremely hot as we have 12 slotted furnaces in our building and each furnace is around 2,200° F. But, it is a very hands on job and I've gotten a lot of experience and I've learned a lot from my job and it's an awesome environment to be in.
Very helpful video. Great job
That turned out great! Glad you decided to share. Thank You
Your skills never cease to amaze! That hammer turned out great.
The guy definitely has talent.
I would like to see a "Can you tell?" episode, where five tools are next to five good quality, but production line made tools. Then have a expert, or not, pick.
Hold up there kills.
He made a $7 hammer out of a $10 one.
He did cure cancer.
I am making myself one tommorrow. Thanx for the inspiration
You really nailed this hammer project. 🔨 👍
Great work Brother! I look forward to your videos, I always learn so much. Had you been my shop teacher back in the day, I might have actually enjoyed the class. Thanks for taking the time to produce these videos.
I agree about using the rasp to shape a handle. Somehow it just seems right to use your hands to fit a tool that will be used by the same.
Beautiful job mate
You did a great job on this hammer.👍
Watching you watch paint dry would still be a good video :)
Thanks for sharing,
Cheers
I have that exact same hammer I've had it for almost 10 years it may be cheap but it's a damn good hammer. I use it when I build railroad tie retainers I can drive a 12 inch galvanized steel spike in four blows with that thing
Me too.
And this guy cut the handle off his.
Stupidity huh.
@@ChrisBrown-pw2lb why would you put a hard wood handle on it the composite handle does an awesome job of dampening the shock of use. I don't understand.
Some find wood handles to be superior for their jobs. Smiths tend to prefer wood handles for their performance. Additionally, wood handles resist damage from heat sources better than the composite.
Yup, definitely on the to do list.
Brilliant work mate
Luckily you made this vid man. That’s allot of views, hopefully you made allot of this video. Thank you for not having advertisements every few minutes I subbed
I love your videos. Keep making!
I really like the vinegar bath finish. I plan to make my first hammer soon.
Nice one bro. Love your idea and your craft. 👍
Nice looking hammer, and I love the vinegar finish.
This is the first of your videos I've watched, that's an amazing belt sander you have.
Loved the wedges!!
Lovely camera work (as well as the obvious woodwork being brilliant too, well done)
P S I liked that wooden hold down
Here’s his video in case you missed it...

@@thickmike , thanks for the link to the video !
My thoughts exactly !! A true craftsman !!
I'm not a Smith but I still love these videos, there entering and I always learn something new
Glad i wasnt the only one blown away by that belt sander...thing 😍 boy i need me one of them

Respekt, Hut ab, vor dieser phänomenalen Arbeit.
Pask, I would watch you make a bowl of cereal. Don't ever not film something.
AMEN!! Totally agree
Changing "the kid's" diaper.
Slayerformayor1983 😂😂😂😂😂
That is one badasses belt sander. Of course that was very good work as well.
Roger Jordan what kind is it ?
I like the you tell what you are doing. So that people can learn
Nice job and great video.
love it!
A superb and straight forward video,with no excessive wordiness!!!!
That’s awesome! Great touch with metal wedges to lock it all up! Never seen that!
Nicely done
Nicely done.
In Russia we got old joke about this.
Some country bought assembly line for Soviet fighter jets, and some knocked down kits. However, after assembly they got tractor, not a plane. One retry, two, three, rereading plans - still got tractors. Then they called original manufacturers to ask what's wrong. Their responce is:
- Do you read assembly manual? You need to elaborately file the completed machine after the assembly!
Haha! I like it! :)
Yup sound like a scam to me
I don't get it:(
i like your humor, John, Australia.
scumbag benis Well if you file/remove enough material from a tractor itl eventually weigh as little as an aircraft
that sanding belt is amazeballs!

Very nice work
Quick question and a request. Did you make your belt grinder? And could we please have a video about your grinder with lots of shots of it’s setup and how it’s put together. Thanks. Mick 😃👍
I knew I should check the comments first before I asked the same question! Yes please, to seeing a little more of this!
I also want to know and se more about this!
Same
I thought about making one but I decided to buy instead. I love this machine, it's extremely well built, I use it every day and it's going to last me years so I'm very happy with my purchase. You can see a tour of the grinder in this video ua-cam.com/video/F-jHm-AQZac/v-deo.html and this is where I bought it from www.artisansupplies.com.au :)
That's truly Awesome i don't know Why but I would never have thought to modifying a hammer great job please keep the videos coming they are very helpful take care and God bless you and yours 🙋♂️
Your awesome! Thank you for not putting crapy music
*You're
Love the sander
Pretty sparkles 😍
If you can forge a hammer, you can forge a ball!
Er...something like that
Great comment and great reference to Rip Torn, who just died a few days ago and uttered the line "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball." What a treasure.
I think it's if you can dodge the cops you can dodge child support?
Is it "necessary" that I drink my own urine?
@@joebodynobody764 Sterile. Drink a lot and 50/50 you feel great or you feel sick as a dog
I assume he already forged a couple of balls, since his appear to be made of steel
Regional differences are funny, cross peen hammers are available at any store that sells tools in the USA. I have never seen a straight peen here and if I needed one would likely have to make one. Great video.
Same here in Romania. Ball peens are harder to find, but everything it's possible
I ready do enjoy your work.
i like how you present diffirent functionalities of your crafted tools : the belt sander with its multiple usage position, the clamp , the vice & all
sublime way to presnet your products
That belt sander rig is amazing.

I’m so glad I found this channel
Awesome job mate
Great video, I enjoy how you reuse and up-cycle tools and scrap into more useful things. Keep up the good work!
Just love watching you work! A delight..
I think you should do a video on that sander that you're using that thing's pretty cool
Well done!
The is one beautiful grinder machine, multi angle and all, who makes that?
Would be interested to know make of grinder too
As do I

It really is an amazing machine John. It's made by 84 Engineering and sold by www.artisansupplies.com.au :)
It looks home made
No se si entiendes el español, yo no se ingles. pero admiro tu trabajo y agradezco tu generosidad al compartirlo. Desde el otro lado del mundo (Piriápolis Uruguay) te felicito y muchísimas gracias por tus videos. Todos me han gustado mucho.
No hablo español pero muchas gracias! Si aún no lo sabes, he estado agregando subtítulos en español a mis videos por un tiempo. :)
Hi P...I've decided, your awesomeness has no bounds. Super video - no crap music just the sounds of your labours. And a new super tool to add to the collection. Sometimes i like the peace of manual tools when time allows, the older i get the crankier i get about noisy anything. Grumpy? Me? Nah! Stay safe and keep up the good work.
Great job enjoyed watching
Your work always amazes me. Brilliant skills and dedication.
That’s a freaking wonderful belt grinder
That belt grinder is a beast!
Awesome as always 👌🏻
Great work! And what an awesome grinder you have! Do you have any information on the maker/ model / attachements etc? Thanks!
84engineering.com.au/
Thanks Jeroen! The grinder is made by 84 Engineering and sold by www.artisansupplies.com.au :)
The steel wedges would have held a bit stronger if they weren't such a smooth surface, but I think it will hold. Might be worth keeping in mind though when you make a better hammer.
I cut little barbs in the side of mine with a bandsaw
Very nice job man. Love your work....
Very nice job, I’ve been wanting to try doing the same thing to one of my old sledgehammers. Now you’ve given me the inspiration to give it a go!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
That looks like a really nice belt sander, may I ask where it's from?

I liked this one. Makes me want to make custom handles for all my crap hammers 😂
Amazing...! I realize after watching this video that steady with a creative mind resulting in a good production.
You are a genius.... And you move faster than any human I've ever seen.... Kind of reminds me of an slapstick.....God bless you.....I really appreciate and enjoyed the video...... keep up the great work.
The Breeders said it best. That is “one divine hammer”!
This is like the Simpsons chilli episode. "They say he carved it from a bigger spoon" - Lenny. 🤣
That’s a cool sander!!
Nice work.
1:41 Stop! Hammer tongs!
But seriously, your editing is getting real good
Can’t touch this!
Hi, I am never going to make or use that hammer as my health would never let me stand for more than 30 seconds, but I still really enjoyed the video and your description of what you were doing. Have you finished the Scrap wood challenge as I enjoyed all the things you made out of what most people would consider firewood? Great video and keep them coming.
Glad you enjoyed it John! I haven't finished the scrapwood challenge, there will be more on the way! :)
