This video is a masterpiece! The way you demonstrate the process of making a brass machinist hammer is both informative and captivating. Your attention to detail and skillful execution shine through every step. I'm truly grateful for the effort you put into sharing your expertise with the world
Nice Koss! Liked the socket head cap screw instead of the typical wedge. Quite the hunk of Bog oak @¿@...makes beautiful contrasts with brass and steel pieces. Thanks always for you great content and creativity.
@@SimeonCogswell Good point. Agreed at some level but at 10:58 when he drills the counter bore with a drill bit (118°/135° countersink) it doesn't look like the depth is necessarily the same as the head height and at ~12:00 it looks like he may be cutting a taper ~2° on the head of the bolt?? Also my guess is the hammer head is maybe ~4oz and the press on fit he did should be enough to compress it enough for that small, light use. With all that said I may have put a bit of epoxy on it during assembly, just in case and it's still a pretty little light duty hammer.
i wanted to say something ridiculous to set me apart from every other comment (which genuinely seem like they were made by chatgpt) but i cant think of anything. regardless i love everything you make
also making the entire head out of brass instead of having just the faces be brass inserts means your going to have to re machine a new head after 4ish months if you actually do a lot of work with it
@@RedAreshan It really depends on how much tapping you do. Maybe an insert would be better. But then I would avoid brass because brass bounces a little and that isn't anything you want while tapping pieces in with a machinist hammer. For an insert I would prefer copper. (Nevertheless: The hammer looks great.)
It's not a different type of wood; it is oak, that was conditioned under bogs of rivers, lakes, swamps, etc. for long enough that it stains black and hardens.
Neat! But I’m not understanding why you preferred to use a screw to fasten the handle to the hammer head rather than the more common technique of inserting a wedge. Was it for looks?
I made a Copper Hammer as an apprentice. The Tool & Die Maker told me it looks like crap. I told him that I know it does, it's intentional. I made it not the most comfortable and definitely not the nicest because then nobody would want to borrow it from me :) That's the reason. It was heavy enough that it got the job done and that's all I cared about. I can make amazing looking tools if I want to but in this case... I didn't. hahaha
Привіт як завжди класна робота, маю маленьку пораду при роботі з цінними породами дерева краще клеїти до заготовки кусок простого дерева і за нього вже тримати в токарному патроні, щоб не пускати лишнє в стружку.
Looks incredible as always! But I'm not understanding how that screw is doing anything to keep the hammer head on the handle.. It's just screwed into the handle below the eye of the hammer, so the head could just pull right off, and the screw would be left there in the handle right? Unless it somehow expanded when you drove it all the way down and acted like a typical wedge does and pushed the wood out into the sides of the eye of the hammer! (But didn't look like it did.) I'm an axe guy so I use wedges all the time and understand that, but can't wrap my head around this screw method. 😂 Sorry!
As you may have noticed, I am turning this screw on a lathe to a taper. This way, when I screw it in, it wedges the top of the handle and holds the hammer head firmly in place. Perhaps it should have been filmed in a close-up to be more visible
@@Koss-channel I was thinking that! And you're incredibly talented so I figured you didn't overlook something like that. A cool and interesting way to "wedge" a tool!
I've already seen a lot of things. but I see the CNC file for the first time. I've already seen a lot of things. but I see the CNC file for the first time.
This bog oak handle is phenomenal ❤
Extraordinary timid cuts in brass. Great end result.
Wow. I really admire your lathe and milling skills. The precision and attention to detail is outstanding. Well done Sir 👏
What a treat to watch Mr. Koss make something just as beautifully finished as always, but not a sharp edge in sight 😁. 😎

Very elegant brass hammer.👍👍
That brass hammer looks to good to use!!
制作工程は見ていて飽きませんね。
I wish I was you! That was just too cool. Very Nice Work.
Cleanest work I've come across on UA-cam. I love the accuracy.
excellent finish, great precision

But the hole was drilled out, it doesn't spread the wood so it doesn't do any.

It turned out beautiful .
Beautiful work
Beautiful machinists hammer! Meticulously crafted!
What a beautiful job🙏🔨
Thor must be jealous!!!!! Excellent work!!! Congratulations
Love your use of the parting tool, if it works, do it
Great work, Mr. Koss! Beautiful hammer! Cheers!👍😀🛠️🔧
Hello Koss beautiful hammer beautifully done
Beautiful work. 👏🏼
Stunning hammer, man! Really beautiful work!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you very much!
Very beautiful congratulations 🎉
Your work is creative
It really good, thanks for your video Sir.
That hammer turned very nice. Great work. The only thing I suggest you it to give a proper view of your work at the end to showcase your art.
It's amazing to see so much kindness here. You all are wonderful!
Amazing work👍
Ke chingon es hacer ese tipo de trabajo, cuando c tienen todas esas herramientas. Muy bonito.
Amazing Craftsmanship 👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Felicitaciones, muy hermoso y práctico. 👏👏

A really nice looking hammer! But working on a fast turning machine like a lathe wearing gloves can be pretty dangerous. It can cost you a finger.
Those are just nitrile gloves. They will rip if you look at them the wrong way. No real risk of them pulling your finger in if they get caught.
@@theajthomasI wish you were right but these are not nitrile gloves unfortunately... are heavy duty rubber gloves 😅
also making the entire head out of brass instead of having just the faces be brass inserts means your going to have to re machine a new head after 4ish months if you actually do a lot of work with it

A piece of art😊
Super nice!
Безискровый инструмент очень нужная вещь в шахтном производстве, БРАВО!

It's hammer time, Koss!
What a beautiful wood, I've never come across it before

GOOD , GOOD JOBS THANKS 😎👌
Отлично сделал!
New favourite Wood discovered!
Very nice👍
Beau-ti-ful! 😯
Beautiful!
Very nice. I think I'll build it

Agreed with that… I’m guessing he’s making a hammer to set work in his milling machine. It’s not heavy use and wouldn’t need more than the bolt
Good Job !
I think I found the channel I'm gonna watch while I eat.
Exelent job.😊
great keep it ON👍
Amazing work
Felicitats ! es una obra d'art👏👏👏
Good job
Thanks
Gorgeous
Awesome!
Que barbaro.
Eres Un titan.
Looks fantastic. You might have wanted to ease the edges on the head ever so slightly so they're not sharp, didn't "see" it done. Very talented work.
That's too pretty to use its a work of art. 😂
You can't have cake and eat it too

It's such a beautiful piece that it would hurt me to use the brass end. LOL
Fantastic.

🖤 Black Wood is Best Wood 🖤
That's what she said.
Great work but is wearing the gloves when machining on the lathe a safe idea? Be safe!
And a bandsaw too! Yikes!
Beautiful! That block of ebony must have cost you a small fortune!
Beautiful Machinist Hammer. I would be hanging it on the wall, not beating anything with it! 🙂🙂🙂
Awesome
You have so many tools and machines in yor workshop. Can you give us a list of what you use?
Привіт як завжди класна робота, маю маленьку пораду при роботі з цінними породами дерева краще клеїти до заготовки кусок простого дерева і за нього вже тримати в токарному патроні, щоб не пускати лишнє в стружку.

Outstanding workmanship 👏👏
Famoso martelinho de ouro aqui no Brasil 🇧🇷
Beautiful result. But is one side of the striking surface wood?
Looks great - a quality job! Is there any chance of getting a copy of the drawings for this? It would make a great school project.
nice
3:18 I was wondering how you'd get the curve. You don't need to lubricate tool head when cutting brass on a lathe?
Thanks

Wait, what does the screw going through the handle do?
Causes the wood to expand slightly, making the handle tighter in the head of the hammer.
Beautiful!!! What is the Ebony wood?
Awesome!
God I hate machining brass. It's like trying to cut gum with a saw. But it looks so good.
это, похоже, не латунь, а бронза сыпучка!.
@@СергейМакаревич-о2э That's what I always say.
*blink blink*
beauty
What is that amazing black wood called?
Can you make a machinist hammer while being a machinist without a machinist hammer?
Did you put angle in that hole in the hammer where the handle goes? If not it Will Fall out like every hammer
Badass
I've already seen a lot of things. but I see the CNC file for the first time. I've already seen a lot of things. but I see the CNC file for the first time.
good job but the meeting poin off the should be on the same level of the handle so it would be smooth and more professional
why are people commenting like they are ai
Because they probably are
Because it is human nature to convince that they are superior to all.
😂😂
Because we are .. dude
Its okay you will not feel any difference.
Thanks
