Alec Steele Blacksmith 2021 - Розваги
You should make some woodworking tools for your dad. Hewing hatchet, froe, drawknife, chisel etc. I'm making a chisel right now myself (though I'm only making it for myself). You can even make irons for planes/spokeshaves etc. I suppose a hammer too. A warrington hammer is just like a light cross peen.
I'm making my own draw knife right now, gonna move onto a carving knife after
Making damascus tools for my woodworking dad
The amount of TIMES I have suggested making this wonderful man a beautiful drawknife is unreal, it’s such a good idea!!
that would be SOOO cool, especially if alec made them in damascus.
@@geodeaholicm4889 I mean, it’d have to be Damascus.
Hey Alec, you need to make your dad a set of Damascus draw knives
YESS ! C'mon alec, do it.
Do it
YES! Do it
Do it
Yes please!
The fact that a blacksmithing channel has gone completely woodworking and everyone loves it is amazing. Great to see the bond between the father and son, next series Alec teaches his old man how to build a damascus chair?
I'm sure it's equal parts Alec having a good presentation style and most of us just liking to watch stuff get made.
Imagine a Damascus chair. It would be worth $75k
In 6423 parts
Here for the personality regardless of content. It's a good community :)
Those two work together. You can be brilliant blacksmith, but if you cant make least decent wooden handle, project wont be what it could be, so metal workers sometimes need to be very familiar with wood working too.
We all need a friend like Jamie to tell us when we're doing stupid.
Your nord VPN add was probably the best one that I have ever seen.
It's right up there with when they played "keep away" from Will.
If Alec and mrs Steele ever have little steeles they’re going to have the best grandpa.
Little shavings? Shards?
❤️ That hit me hard in the feels. OMG yes!
Little Chips
Accept for my grandchildren 😜😁
And way less content:/
Mr. Steele is such a pleasant man to listen to while he is talking. He's got such a nice calming way of talking. Nice seeing you with your father Alec. Enjoy every minute with him and cherish him. I lost my father 13 months ago. It's rough. Keep on keeping on with the videos.
@ TwistedFire85: So sorry for your loss, my Dad passed away 5 years ago.
41 years for me, (im 48) they didnt have video, ph camera etc etc back then, so yea, make those memories, an take the picks/vids
An sorry for your loss dude
My dad is 80 and still going. So thankful I got to reform my relationship with him as an adult. Learned so much from him.
Sloyd knife and Korlosing knife?
Mr. Steele doesn't realize this, but Alec will scrap the chair and start over soon. ;)
Hahaha
Is Steele, Alex's real surname? If not, technically it's Mr Woode?
@@buttieboy666 Beautiful comment
Next up on episode 37, we put wheels and pedals on the chair (bet you thought we forgot about your mountain bike build)
Hahahaha best comment yet!!
"It's good. Now do the other one."
I love Alec's dad. :)
Then he goes from the steamer and drops one of the boards. Now we know where Alec gets THAT from!
please make your father a new set of tools hand forged by you. Adding in adjustments you discovered by using his existing ones. The shape of the blue handled draw knife with a larger blade. Some carving chisels, adze, left and right flattening axes/hatchets. Maybe have him over to the shop to suggest adjustments/improvements to the most used tools.
Even if he just customized the larger ones. However, I’m sure the larger ones are angled the way they are purposefully
"How long do we need our back slabs "
"I've forgotten"
Is the realest thing I've heard in a vid all week. Love it
I wouldn't mind watching a carpenter's tools making series in a future.
You could make your dad a damascus draw knife!
Jamie: Why not just support it with another piece of wood.
Alec: Because that would be smart.
We don't do smart things here on this channel
I fucking died at that part of the vid 😂
“Golly I feel really stupid” 😭
Those time-lapses of Alec slimming down the slats were trippy, watching the wood's grain change like that.
I love that Alec's dad is just there chilling like a very responsible dad.
Love this little”chair” series! Would love to see more of this kind of cool project with your Dad…..something about the dynamic is heart warming. Thanks for sharing this cool time with us Alec!
I dont mind ads when they are creative. Well done!
Like the shadiversity sponsor ads, or when Alec promotes his shop in a vid (like the pearing knife he made with Jamie). An ad well done is always nice.
"Put a car on it... Gopher it" haha what a great laugh you had there. What a treasure that cinemagraphic shot was that had you sitting at the draw knife, complete with Junior footpegs as your dear old dad looked on approvingly ... "priceless.
2:41 Without brilliant young craftspeople having lightbulb moments like yours, another torch of ancient human wisdom and ingenuity is snuffed. You, Alec, are a torchbearer for humanity.
Can I just say that, watching you work on the back slats is very satisfying. Seeing you work and the grain of the wood change is amazing.
This is by far one of my favorite series you’ve put up.
I love seeing you work with your dad. All of the different axes and different tools are great.
Alec, you have no idea how much I have enjoyed these videos with your father! You both are lucky to have one another.
This brought back some memories of my gramps. "We old *people* do carpentering. Leave the tool making to yunguns", very roughly translated. Thanks for the throwback, Alec. Got me to realize how much I learned from those weekends.
How blessed you are to have a Father who delights in spending time with you, sharing his knowledge and skill. It's easy to see his influence in your commitment to quality and detail.
Alec Steele senior is a treat! Please more father and son projects
New channel: ' New Wood by Old Steele'
I want to see you make some damascus tools for Alec Steele Sr. now... =p
A whole set even! =D
Reminds me of me and my dad, he passed away a couple years back though. Great to see you guys having fun working together. Enjoy the fun times!
The changing of the wood grain was super cool to see sped up when you were making the back slats. And that had to be the cutest ad I've ever seen in my life, :D
Watching the grain of the back slats ebb and flow in time lapse as you were shaving them was very satisfying.
Not enough people are commenting on how absolutely fantastic that sponsorship skit was 😂😂
Lol I was looking for a comment about it..🔥
I love that you can see the grain of the wood change so sharply in the time-lapse
Loved watching the time lapse of the draw knife work with the grain being revealed.
that manual hand drill looks unexpectedly modern and advanced compared to usual woodworking tools. love it.
It's lovely to see you and you father working together, its now clear where you got you creative skills from. It's also amazing that you are showing the traditional skills and processes of chair making.
7:28 Thats so satisfying to see the wood change!!! I LOVE IT
Alec enjoy these moments with your father. They will be the best moments of your life. Cheers to you and your family!
Im shocked when he was going threw the draw knifes he didn't go to his forge and make one haha its always fun when he makes the tool he needs
Ah. The old addage...need a tool, make a tool.
7:30 It's so cool watching the grain pattern change in fast motion.
It's really nice to see you working with your dad on this project. You ask him to make another. Its quite wholesome to watch really. :)
Draw knives are the scariest tool for me to use because I got the image of my older brother accidently cutting into his stomach and walking into the kitchen bleeding out, fortunately it wasn't anything fatal but damn it was a experience stuck in my head.
LOVE YOUR DAD!!!!!
Papa Steele looks so happy and proud of his son, I'm green with envy
It is extremely rewarding to be able to share this special time with your father and you! Blatantly clear where many of your traits originate! Awesome!!
Take it from me, please, you will treasure these times more than you can now imagine! Great show!!! 👍🏼
Great dads makes great sons
How awesome would it be for you to do a series making your dad a whole set of hand forged wood working tools.. he would cherish them!
This series makes me feel good
So fun to watch you and your Dad together!
Please thank him for letting you strike out on your dream of metal work at a young age!
Watching wood working like this is so much fun to see. Please do more building with your father this is awesome!!!
really enjoy this mini series keep it up.
This series is extremely therapeutic if your dad is no longer around! I love this relationship!
Amazing what your dad can do with just a box of tools and his imagination! He's keeping the old ways alive and deserves my utmost respect.
Look at that proud daddy watching his son do what he loves.
There's something really satisfying about making something the old fashioned way. With that said, watching Alec make those slats really makes me appreciate a planer (i think the British call it a thicknesser).
Excellent, another video with pops!
I love that you're able to do this with your dad. I cherish the moments I had making things in the shop with my dad. These opportunities will be gone before you know it, and you'll also cherish these moments and memories. Make the most of these times. Cheers!
7:29 whoah, it's so cool to see the pattern change as you cut deeper bit by bit.
Man I love seeing the wood transform into smooth pegs and boards from rough logs!
Glad to see you get to spent time with your father doing the things he loves and that you have taken his knowledge and adapted it to your skills. Please enjoy that time - stay safe young man.
It's very obvious your dad needs an old fashioned style draw knife with similar dimensions to the modern blue handled one.. Your just the man for the job
Absolutely LOVE your dad gave the measurements in imperial units!! 👍🏼🇺🇸
Love the comment about transferring knowledge from one skill to another. I did that with going from whittling to blacksmithing after watching the channel (both teach you to plan in advance, how to salvage a mistake, and when to admit that you need to start over- handy lessons for pet projects and life in general!)
Would love to see you make some of those tools (draw knives, axes, chisels, saws etc) and then make another project with your dad using the tools you made.
Alec, I think your next video should be you making your dad a new custom set of draw-knives, tailor made to get around the wrist angle issue you mentioned.
It's really nice to see you working with your dad... It's priceless!
I want Alec to make his dad a new draw knife.
This just made my day! I was literally wondering where part 2 was at this morning. It's very endearing to see Alec working with his father on such a cool project! That chair is going to last for generations. Unless Alec's kid decides to take it apart to see how it's built. LOL!
These videos feel so much like the older content which I enjoyed so much! Great job Alec, and father.
This is a great series. I am enjoying watching Mr Steele and Alex working together.
I think my favorite part of these videos is seeing how happy Mr. Steele is making something with his son
Loving this Little Series ! I love building things with my Old Man!
I've never been more proud of Alec. Back in the UK and still using freedom units of measure like half a pound and an eighth of an inch.
Old units still used by traditional bodgers, especially the ones who learnt their trade before the UK (which empire did you think “imperial” referred to?) switched to mostly using SI units.
You need to make your farther a Damascus steel wood plane!
am i the only one paranoid that Alec is going to cut himself in half every time he uses the draw knife
Nah it's actually hard to cut yourself despite how it looks. That little blue one especially. Your arms stop you due to the technique. Worst you get is a nick since you're at the very end of the stroke.
Yes. Haha.
Best commercial I've ever seen! Incredible! No doggo bias here.
By far my favourite series on this channel
This woodshop is just so cozy looking
Alec has what it takes to make some fine woodwork. True craftsman
Love this series. You and your father should combine a project using both metal and wood work disciplines.
You should make some challenges with your dad! Where you both try to build something, etc
It’s beautiful finding that grain in live wood love working down my material and seeing the hidden gems
I love your g'pa! When I look at him- his stance, his words, his ease- I see a man in his forties- tops. He's still so spry!
Hey Alec, it would be so cool to see you craft a drawknife for your father ! its called "plane de charron" in french and it is an amazing tool ! Keep up the good work !
I never heard of working with green wood until your Full Blast podcast. Thanks for sharing and spreading the knowledge!
Sounds like the next series should be making some custom draw handle knives for your fathers work shop!
More ads with the dogs please, an actual treat!
Watching Alec make the front legs, makes me glad wood lathes exist for when i want to do this
just goes to show that, with a good teacher, good tools, a learning attitude and a work ethic, you can make whatever you want.
Like father Like Son... greetings from Chile
That is the best advertisement I've ever seen. That was awesome. Yogo was so happy that she got the ball!
Loving this series
It would be so cool to see you make some Damascus wood working tools for your dad
I like how the dog likes to hang out in that box.
I love norfolk folk, they seem to all have this kind of mad charisma/ wild excitement about them. Must be all the good ales.
I hope you and your dad having fun doing this I love watching this stuff I love watching you work at blackSmith woodwork I wish you the best of luck have good rest of year
i wish there are more people who are like your dad, like he takes the time to do something that is a beautiful craft and still is a great way of passing the time.
the process is honestly fascinating and shows how much effort is put into chairs back in the day too.
it's honestly inspiring and it cool you did this as a kid too.
stay safe!
Would love to see you make a series of forging tools for your dad for his birthday or what not
It’s great to see you building stuff with your dad. I see where you get your talents and work ethic .
When you guys are done with this series, would you ever consider releasing a one-video cut of the whole process? My dad is a beginning woodworker who's fascinated by using handtools as much as possible - he would love this, but I'd never convince him to sit down and watch a multi-episode youtube series of it 😂
(of course I on the other hand am enjoying it immensely! I'd just like to share it with my own old dad :P)
