Rubics cube twist - blacksmithing for beginners
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 тра 2024
- The cube twist or Rubics cube twist has many variables. This is a very basic version of the twist with most of the setup work being done at the vise with a hacksaw.

It's really awesome that you share these skills. Most people only show you how to "do the twist" ;)
"ohh yea Just Like This" :)
I really appreciate the fast motion when it comes to repetitive tasks like this and also that you edit out the heats.
Thanks, I am sure there are times when waiting for material to heat can be educational, but It's not something I would want to watch on a video.
My cousin is a huge fan of board games (he has a 1938 Monopoly board framed on his wall) and he just got his first house with a fireplace. He was just asking me if I could make him a set of fireplace tools and I now know what I'm going to do for the handles. Thanks again, John. P.S. I know there's been some dispute about the music, but I like the way you use it in the sped up sequences of the videos. Ads a bit more interest and fun for the viewer in my opinion.
Always IMPRESSED John, thank you for making this easy for us...
Toe-tapping Rubik's Cube Twist music! I love it! Another great vid.
Fun and informative as always, thanks John.
So simple and it is easy to imagine all the interesting variations this can have.
Very nice. I like the use of the wrenches, it looks very controlled. Thanks!
Really cool and simple twist, thanks
Thanks for all the great videos
Nice little twist! I never thought of using wrenches for doind something like this but I can see where it would give you great control! Thanks for the video, the inspiration, and the lesson!
Never heard of such a thing, I learn something new everyday by watching this channel...
So that's how it's done, thought you were going to twist that first one right off. Thanks John.
Thanks For Another Great Video John! I Start Everyday By Checking Up On Black Bear Forge, Christ Centered Ironworks,& Big Dog Forge . I Really Appreciate All Of The Great Content, Thanks Again!!
This guy is so good. He really enjoys showing us what he loves doing
I think you did just great with the music on this and I'm enjoying it
There are a lot of videos on the Rubik's Cube Twist but, as usual, John takes the time to make it truly craftsman level.
I like the dual wrench way. Have a great day!
Cool little project thanks
short, sweet, and super cool
Nice technique. I like the fire effects at the end.
Thanks
thank you thank you thank you! I am so glad I found your channel. I have barely begun to Smith and find your videos very informative. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Yeah hes a magician..
Nice use of “hurry” music. Also liked the closing credits music. (Just so you know.)
I have never even thought of doing a twist like that. Very interesting.
Great job on the video. I basically use the two wrench method for that also, but I never have two that are the same size, so I use adjustable wrenches. Watching it on the log at the end was a cool effect! 👍 👍 Keep up the great work
I’m very interested in that flat measuring stick you use. Please don’t take any of your tools for granted, a masters explanation of a simple tool is valuable.
Yeah I'd like to get one of those myself!
It’s a modified square. Search my videos for “hook rule” I have two videos showing either that ruler or a traditional hook rule
Much appreciated, I have a lot to learn.
Thank you for considering us beginners!
great video very informative!
I'll have to try this sometime!👍😁
I like your music choices better than the electro-pop junk on some of the woodworking channels I watch.
great twist, a little less technical than others i have seen. you made it look so easy.
that is amazing, hell, all your stuff is amazing. Thanks for sharing......
That was so cool I cant believe it ...
Great video, simple but efficient... I did love the display clip at the end with the fire from the log slowly evolving around the piece, was mesmerizing.
... The music worked well too ;0)
I let it sit on the log tight after straightening and saw that. So I got it hot again just for that shot. Glad you liked it
@@BlackBearForge I did very much.
Nice twist.
Absolutely fantastic job with the music!
Thanks
Neat technique!
Hey my cherry friend. I love the tune fella. Nothing like a banjo rag eh. Nice simple post bud. All the music works for me my friend.
The timing of the video is perfect
I really like that, it would make a lovely pattern for say a hook or something else.
Fun project
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls
I love the piece just sitting and burning the stump at the end 🙂 Could you do a video where you make one of these into a bottle opener, please? I would love to try that for my son who loves dice role play games.
Nice split screen shot at the end.
Смотрю ваши ролики с большим любопытством .👍
Cool man!
On the subject of music, sped up footage and proper editing, along with the right kind of music. This is a prime example of how to do it properly.
Thanks
I love my portable band saw that you advise me to get
That the way I cut mine.
Thanks
Liked the fast action with the music.
Thanks
That was simple. I might be able to pull that one off.
Yes you can
Love the music
Thanks
This was really cool! I can't wait to try it! In future you might prefer to show at normal speed the required steps while editing out the repetitive parts. In examples like this where you're repeating the same cutting on each side I don't think there's much value to showing the whole process.
Another AWESOME video. Did you anneal the square stock before sawing?
Your fast -motion music always kills me.. when I watch sometimes with the sound down, i always picture Yakety Sax (the Benny Hill Theme) music in my head! Thanks so much for making all these wonderfully instructive videos!
I wish I had that song available. But it’s one I would have to deal with copyright issues on.
Great interlude while filing. So much better than the pounding and thumping so many others use. Quick question tho. Do you have a video in your log that explains how to fix a axe eye that is not centred after the initial punch? Can’t seem to find one. Thanks again John and as always 👍🏼
I don’t have one, so far. But I think Brent Bailey has one on correcting hammer eyes.
Thank you sir i will go check into it. 👍🏼
I need to know how to make a bale (handle) for a 30 gallon cauldron w/ 1 inch ear openings.
Pot is about 28 iinches from center of each ear.
Wouldn't a couple crescent wrenches be a better option? On account of them typically having wider jaws, as to not twist the individual cubes or die.
What are you going to do with it? Just curious. Definitely different. I enjoy what you come up with, you are amazing! Thanks.
This was just a sample. But the design is often used as a handle for a poker or similar
Where do you get your wire brush from? I've been looking, but all the ones I've seen seem to be the stiff short bristle ones...
I buy them from Pieh Tool. The long bristle ones are Casting Brushes
0:40 whats with the drinks tins on the top right of the vid? specifically the ones on their sides
Its the beginning of a can wall. Do a web or UA-cam search for Earthship. There should be lots of information on the concept.
Maybe you should get a little Dremel with some cutting disks might save a little time compared to the hacksaw.
I honestly think you would spend more time changing discs then it takes to hacksaw.
I couldn't tell you how fast I'd throw away that hacksaw and pull out my portaband.
A hacksaw with a sharp blade is a powerful tool
I can see it as ornamental, but how does it work for a handle? Is it irritating? Comfortable? Or Meh?
I think it looks a bit uncomfortable as well. But I do see lots of people using the effect for bottle openers
Still haven’t found a hacksaw that’s my size 😜
Wear hearing protection while forging. I do when making armor!
Лайк по-любому с Киева 🤗
лайк и ещё два лайка!... я делал такую ручку на кочергу и совок. на свои первые кочергу и совок) ... только я ленивый и использовал вместо ножовки болгарку
Mr bob
If you don't like the music, do what I do: hit the mute. If you have captions turned on, you can un-mute when speech resumrs.
Great to have fast motion on the monotonous parts! The music is fine for music sake, but I don't appreciate it for the video. Thank you for the great instruction!
no grinder!/// по русски ушм
Ernõ Rubik isn't a Blacksmith, he is a Professor of Architecture, his original cube was 3 x 3. I would say this is traditionally a cube twist and has appropriated Rubik's name by accident. All that trivia aside, I do like the quality of your craftsmanship.
Can't believe I just watched this...smh
