Made one of those

Well same topic it's look like frosty had right about forge welding two carbon steels , I tryed to forge weld mild steel and leaf spring (which is high carbon steel I presume ) . Had some sparks but I don't think I turned it too much. I have feeling that I forge welded one part and other just got squished to leaf spring part I cheated a bit with tacking using stick welding , cause darn thing was flipping on me couple of times

So I think I will leave those for other projects

I thought to weld two parts of this and make one big wedge since there is wedge I. It made.

Can I make axe by welding those together and shaping eye . Would it be good axe? It's leaf spring, it's wedge shaped . I thought to forge weld two parts together. I cut those ends

Which topic to put I will here. Old file new drawknife

Made two axe handles , drawn out three axes and sharpened them. This is before and after

Well made from this axe with unskilled work that someone tried to use concrete chisel to push out leftover form wooden handle. First I had to push this out with drill fire (didint used blower maybe a bit, so I don't ruin temper of eye, let it burn ) then I used some chisels to push it out. I drawn out, heat treated , sharpened and made new axe handle

yes it does

Forged some bolt jaw tongs . https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMkrB9CW3/ Didnt had electricity so was I stoped? Nooo. This time tradition beat technology and modernity. Love that I didi t sold old equipment . Man have to think about everything , even this is not my job, if I had order and had to make something and didn't had tight tool I would rely on this old technology .

Nothing only added valve to fan

Once i tryed hot rasping and i stick to grinding, missed a stroke and hot red steel ended in my thumb, i must admit wound recovered faster then when you usualy cut yourself , i how you say it cautarized myself

Well i grab by accident black heated metal and it show mark on my hand, i must admit later after day i dont feel pain in that spot but cause thats part of skin is probably dead until new one come. But he did what i cant imagine.

Same video

No need for description but what I saw, and how he done it.. https://www.facebook.com/reel/8625600077489903?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v

I know what you mean that way one to my axe tongs were made but I like full proceas off splitting and bending jaw wings.

I never had better grip before They even hold good without clip, material can't escape I will make another in but smaller

Ash dump and air gate handle made , pretty much it can work normaly now

This forge is what I paid for 2 years a go condition was if you want to buy anvil you have to buy forge so I bought it , everything was ok, but wanted to install valve for better air control and it was leaking a bit so I changed old thin shit metal chanel tuyere with thicker plate , had lots of work with electricity too. Thought that fan died but it look like it was ok, just I forgot to connect wire from capacitator to motor. It's German style forge where you get rid of clinkers while pushing in this lever, when you push this lever down rod goes up , ann you have less air to forge , when you push lever up , ball goes down , you have more air to forge And I made now bigger this part which push clinker and allow air to go Here is how it looked before Now it is like this

Well I make new chanel for forge and dumper and clinker breaker but ruined blower for some reason it don't work.

This one

Literally it is standing on anvil.

There it is o shaped guillotine

I made this one guillotine today
