    • @FireCreekForge

      I like to use a weak ferric chloride solution to etch several times until there is an easily distinguishable difference surface depth, then cleaning and soaking in strong coffee overnight will darken the carbon steel better.

    • @FireCreekForge
      @FireCreekForge  3 роки тому

      This was a "zero atmosphere" weld, since I sealed it by arc welding around the billet. That keeps the oxygen out so no oxidation occurs, and the steel can weld easily.

      @FireCreekForge  4 роки тому

      The hydraulic press (what I'm using here) is super helpful for reducing large sections of steel, but it has limited capability to forge a variety of shapes, planes without specific dies to affect that exact shape, where as a power hammer is inherently more versatile.
