metalmangeler Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Pugh Man you do realise that you need to forge weld the billet before you twist it right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pug}{maN Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Stack them, weld the ends, one end has a rod to hold with. Heat, flux, heat to weld temperature, hammer on anvil, heat, twist, hammer flat on anvil... Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Sells Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 welding both ends can cause a problem of buckling, whereas welding only one end allows slippage to get a smooth clean weld. your call. I dont weld at all, I tie wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Made Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Very nice! I like the look! Excellent job. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolish Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Very nice blade, clean pattern, If you use the tie wire, do you just avoid hitting the wire and move it when needed, or weld it into the pile? Any special wire or just uncoated steel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loneforge Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'm offering simple answers to simple questions. Pattern welds are not simple. And I will not divulge all my hard earned knowledge in a public forum. Sorry guys. PM me and I will help if I can.... just not here. All these questions have already been asked and answered somewhere on this site. I found the info here and so can you. Cheers and thanks for looking!
