No joke, this has gotta be my favorite of Tim’s videos!
Thank you so much! To kind
I second that statement. Actually learned a ton on this and not just the hammers. The way you made that rack was pretty cool @TimothyDyck

Got my 2 pound cross pein hammer in today's mail. It is such a nice hammer; what a work of art! Then I saw the serial number: 01! WOW! And it's in the video. My son and I just watched the whole video and it was amazing to see the hammer I now own towards the end of the video. 😄
Peter was a great addition to the team! He’s no robomartin but that beard totally makes up for it 🤣
That entire series is awesome! Thank you for taking time to build, film, edit and post this video.
You’re very welcome! So glad you have enjoyed it!
So honored to be part of the unlisted video crew
Thank you for being here!
Tim, this editing style was amazing
Great video! That ending was too cool
Really nice homemade quenching tank you’ve got there!
You could make small fixed blade knives like a neck knife out of those small off cuts from the hammers when you break off the end. Then you could sell them with your hatchets or hammers.
If the hammers harden to 53 Rockwell maybe the thin knives would be higher
I've been in Ethan's shop a couple times, never been fortunate enough though to have been there when he had the steam hammer going.
On your axes, I would still fully harden the whole head. But then I would go back with a torch and blue temper the eye with a torch to guarantee they are not too hard. Then, the poll is still hardened if you use steel wedges.
Excellent hammers! You are a great craftsman!
Those are so sick Timmer! amazing collab. Also I thought my Watson red gloves looked bad.....geesh bud lemme send ya a couple pairs 😬
Wow! What a nice looking hammer.
Amazing job as always Timothy!
mmmmmm tooools. Beautiful work.
Making some hammers for construction would be cool , a challenge tho ,
Good looking hammers!
Hey Tim excellent workmanship ! Your attention to detail and presentation is amazing . I believe with practice one day i will be able to make a hammer similar but never with such great finish . Im just a farmer from new Zealand, but want to learn blacksmithing as a productive hobby.
Ive been fortunate enough to get a good amount of blacksmith tools and two pneumatic Massey hammers , a 400lb and a 10 cwt one that has sat outside for 25 years and needs unseizing .
You and Ethan are great guys im glad you to can compliment each other .
I also need to say you go to extra effort to make high quality videos that share how you make the amazing items you sell , thanks for sharing it with us .
Hopefully one day i can visit you in Canada and if you're ever down under in new Zealand you're welcome to visit , (once my new shop is built)
From one Tim to another thank you 😊
Kia ora from Oz. I do miss pulling teats, but i cant say i miss the early mornings. But then again, maybe i do?
Love you work Tim.
Beautiful, Tim
Thanks for another great video as a fellow smith i love watching the progression and steps. Awesome hammers with a cool past life.
Awesome to see the full process and I love that rack you built at the end 😊👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Tim, you might want to look into the "Astra coated" Compression pattern router bits from "Bits n Bits". Though the upfront cost is higher, you should find that they cut cleaner and faster and stay sharper for longer, so in production run like you have for the handles, it should work out worth the upfront cost in order to save on the back end.
INCREDIBLE video. I could watch you in the shop making and creating all day. keep the forge lit my boy 🔥
Your "flatting the budge" is easier than mine. I had to lose 35 pounds to get it done...
That’s so funny! Good for you, I gotta get my butt in gear and start exercising too.
very excited to get one! awesome work
That lineup of hammers looks amazing!
What a huge pile of swarf under your grinder, I hope you're saving it. Would really like to see you do a powdered metal canister billet with that.
these look simply goregeous!!!
I’ve loved watching your progression as an artisan and videographer. Kudos on the new line
Beautiful sentiment at the end ☺️
Another really enjoyable video. Well edited and produced. Makes it very easy to consume. Nice hammers too:)
#20. Nice work Tim! Beauties!
Amazing!
This was truly a great video. Thank you!! Just out of curiosity, about how much extra steel do you start with to end up with your desired weights? Is there anything that you can do with the cutoffs from forming the pein?
Im not sure if this would be a feasible service offering. But have you ever thought about doing a hammer/axe rejuvenation service? Like a re-handle and a striking face/ blade clean up. Seems like there would be people with their beloved inherited old iron that wouldn't mind a professional do a refresh. Anyways, love your work and love your videos!
11:45 its like a cake or bread, the crust is the hardest
Those are a work of art! I wish that I could buy one but my budget says no.
Whatcha doing with the reject hammer heads?
I recycle them/use the steel for other projects.
Cool
If you fully quench the hammers, tha thinner parts cool faster - that could be why they are harder than the rest.
What kind of oil is applied to the handle?
A concoction of Odies oils. I didn’t talk about it in this video as I have in in the past. Odies is super good stuff.
Hey Tim how bout a double diagonal hammer lol
why is the drift white? just white paint? titanium dioxide?
How can I buy your products.
I would love a hatchet!
R.E the different Rockwell readings : you need to anneal these properly after working them as there will be tension and work hardening occuring and would also be hardening from the trains also ?? !!
Can someone tell me where did he buy the rail tracks from ?
why not use the same wood for the wedges as the handles? other than aesthetics?
👏👏👏👏🤜🤛
Teemmeeèh!
The www. in your website link causes it to be broken on this video. Cheers
Thank you! I just moved to a new website and I think it works now! Try timothydyck.com
Isnt rail mild steel?
It was, until you have trains running on it until it is decomissioned and then it is the hardest of cold forged. Notice they aren't sawing the billets, you run through tooling if you try to saw it.
noobs when youtubers think they are blacksmith
what is that supposed to mean?
@@paulmccullough7352 that there is a lot of unskilled persons thinking they are doing a good job sharing bad practices to unaware viewers creating more unskilled persons thinkig they are doing the thing perfectly but .....
I personally find straight pein hammers are 100 times more useful than cross pein hammers. They make my life way easier so I'm glad to see you making some Tim.
LOOKING good TiM . 👍🥸🤠
