    In the beginning I was afraid there was going to be music for the whole video. I like that its just the sounds of the work

    • @torbjornahman
      @torbjornahman  7 років тому +47

      Thanks. I wanted to test getting rid of the grinder sounds... not sure how it works...

    • @samuelouthouse5238
      @samuelouthouse5238 7 років тому +23

      Torbjörn Åhman Yeah, the grinder sounds can get a little annoying after a long time. Maybe try some different music types

    • @Koptokaf
      @Koptokaf 7 років тому +13

      I's a good idea, trying to mask the sound of the grinder, but music has a pretty polarizing effect in my experience. There will always be someone who hates the specific genre/track you selected.
      I suggest checking out John Neeman tools/Northmen to see an example of very inoffensive music for applications such as this one. Generic music is better than exciting music.
      By the way, the hammers look great, and your video quality is, as always, superior.

    • @shrimpicus
      @shrimpicus 7 років тому +16

      If you are going to use music so cover sounds like grinders, i would suggest not using this type of music. It tends to be used for 'click bait' style videos and your work deserves better imo. The music Alec Steele uses feels much more suited to this type of video.

    • @Toxicity1987
      @Toxicity1987 7 років тому +9

      I would prefer natural music, like acoustic guitar music, it fits more your handcrafting. The music choice of this Video feels like the first song from the free to use UA-cam library.

    IRL: One day Torbjorn found a jug of linseed oil on sale. He bought that jug of linseed oil, and promptly after bringing home his prize his wife asked him: What the hell are you going to do with 5 gallons of linseed oil? I'm convinced this is why this channel exists. To use up that 5 gallon jug of linseed oil.

    Delighted to see somebody really paying close attention to cleaning and refining the tapers in the eye prior to fitting the handle. It makes a great deal of difference in mating the head to the handle really securely. I re-handle a lot of hammers and axes and almost always have to do quite a bit of work with rotary burr and file before fitting - It is always worth the small extra effort.

      Torbjorn, I particularly liked the music and I AM an old fart. I Didn't find it depressing at all and in fact found it quite enervating. The rhythm of your sanding matched the music rhythm, giving it a Zen like experience which which I tend to fall into doing that kind of work. No worries here on your video skills just keep doing what feels right...it's a great gift to us and this old fart is greatful! ~PJ

      Watching this again and was curious: Is the inner eye drifted in an hourglass shape or do you continue to drift from one side while working the cheeks and making the grooves behind the faces? I remember hearing someone talking about an hourglass shape, but wasn't sure the reason they were doing it that way. Thanks!

      Torbjörn Åhman the appeal of your channel for me has always been the lack of music. It has its own charm, and is much more enjoyable to watch. You shouldn't think of your videos without music and boring, it's the opposite for me, as I only hear the music of your hammer on the anvil

    I like the way you put some music in the finishing process, it gives a good idea of what happens in the blacksmith's head when the piece is forged and ready to be oiled and starred at ! Maybe you could use some traditionnal music of your country ? It would add something powerful to something already awesome.

    @Scugzerker Рік тому +1

    I'm drooling here over the stuff you have. Can't say I have a ragtag of a forge especially considering I'm still just a hobbyist (going to college at the same time, so I cannot fully commit to it yet until next (school) year when I've hopefully got my degree). With some help (mostly assisted by my father, and a professional welder who's helped us for free) I have all the basics necessary to make most (smaller) stuff; a log-splitter converted to a forge press, some hammers, a decent oven which can reach high temperatures despite its size, and a pair of tongs. Though the only thing that isn't my property is the anvil (and place, but I'm allowed to work in a corner of a huge shed for free too - I know, I'm extremely lucky) which is old and abused, but nobody has used it in years so I can use it for as long as I need.

  • @Brad-lt6mr
    @Brad-lt6mr 7 років тому +5

    dip your punch in oil to cool and then dip in coal dust so it sticks to the punch. keeps your fingertips away from heat and hammers and is much more effective.

    • @torbjornahman
      @torbjornahman  7 років тому +11

      Might try that again... tried it before but it wasn't that effective. I'm considering making a lube out of graphite and bees wax. See how that goes.

    • @kylongrifle
      @kylongrifle 7 років тому

      we use hofi lube. Its Molybdenum powder, graphite and dish soap then thinned with water. It works real well, you can cool your punch in it and the residue stays on. We do put a pinch of coal dust in the hole under the punch but the lube is what really helps.

    • @torbjornahman
      @torbjornahman  7 років тому

      Ok, good! I have seen the recipe. I need to try that sometime. Only thing that bothers me is the water... can you really cool a H13 punch in it without cracking it?

    • @kylongrifle
      @kylongrifle 7 років тому

      I think the additives slow down the quench significantly because its a lot thicker than water but yea we cool our punches in it all the time with no problems. Now that's not from a bright red or anything. if we happen to let a punch get that hot we let it air cool a little to maybe a black heat then cool in the lube. Some folks don't use water just the dish soap and leave it really thick and paint it on with a brush before they punch. Im sure you have seen gearheartironworks video on youtube punching hammer eyes with a press? their punch is h13 and that's hofi lube they are cooling it in.

    I only found your channel this week Torbjörn, and I have binge watched quite a few of your videos already. I am subscribed and the alerts are on :).
    This is master craftsman level workmanship. I am absolutely fascinated by the process and wowed by the beautiful end result.
    Countering many other comments, for me the choice of music and the amount of it worked really well for this video. I agree you don't want music all though, and I like to hear to sounds of the tools too. Combined with some great camera work and editing, the music contributes to a very professional feel.

      @@billy19461 I would say around 150 to 275 because of the equipment used, and the craftsmanship.

      UMMM... the cost is the time, coal, steel, calories, water, overhead, sweat equity, and patience with MEEKNESS proven.

      Block of steel. Plain iron, or even cast, wouldn't be able to take the abuse these will. Well, White or Grey Cast might, but you're going to forge those.

    Oh, thank god; I thought that music was gonna be throughout. Listening to the sounds of the smithy is the closest thing I have to a meditation practice.

    What is up with the music in the beginning of the video. I like it better when there are no music. The sounds of your workshop is just right. And keep up the good work, I absolutely love it

    i love the sound of the work when its sped up, it sounds like tinkering :) the music at the beginning was a nice touch, and the interlude with flowers and nature was also very nice, it gives a nice overtone. i like the sound of the hand file though. its very nice.

    The work might go much faster, but you put the same amount of care and craftsmanship into the handle as you do the head.
