The way you break projects into such simple self explanatory stages, you display the art of machining & engineering almost on the macro scale. Truely art.
Hi, love your work! you probably know this already, when I heat treat my knife blades I was told to wrap with paper then place into stainless steel then heat. the paper burns off the oxygen and the part have less oxides on it when removed. Rich
How amazing : whatever you are doing, building, filming : it's just magnificient, inspiring and so beautiful. Greetings from Belgium and Thanks for all your work and sharing with us.
Piano wires and guitar strings are round. If you want to squish them into a flat shape, you need to first soften them, then progressively flatten them. Once you're finished flattening, you have to temper them so they aren't brittle, since they become work hardened. Now you have a flat wire that you can use for springs and other purposes where a round wire is not suitable.

Truely art.
Your videos bring me calm and warmth.
Thank you.
Clever, but looks like a lot of work!

Always fascinating and inspiring.beautiful work!
Do not heat treat my guitar strings. Got it. 😂
Brilliant

Am I the only one who doesn't understand what's going on here?

He's taking a round wire and progressively turning it into a flat coil. E.g. for making coil springs.

He is rolling the wire flat, giving it a square or rectangular profile instead of round.
He's rolling spring steel wire into a flat strip, for making watch springs.
But why?
He needed a flat coiled spring?
Pressure-rolling round wire into flat wire, for use in making watch balance springs.
