@ThomasShue yeh it's a thing of beauty but so loud. Quite soft too so marks way too easily. Way better anvils out there.

When I first watched this video, I had started forging about a month or two earlier. I was struggling to make all these discrete skills click into place and start working together. But when I found your video (since I had the precise issue you described with cold starts) I heard your advice on hammer strikes at 9:05. It is such simple advice, but it has become a constant cue I think of when forging: "Strike the floor, Not the steel." It has completely changed my forging technique. I think it has helped me to stop trying to hit the steel in a straight line, but instead think of the swing as an arc. So thank you, I really appreciate your amazing teaching here.

I'm glad I can help. Thanks for letting me know. Nobody has ever mentioned this way of thinking but it's something I realised a few years into the craft. There are also a lot of tips in the heart fire poker video and the practice piece you may gain a lot of help from. They're long but I think out loud while forging. Have a great day 😀

Great job mate you make it look easy. I recently bought an old anvil and intend getting into blacksmithing. I have some other jobs to finish before i start. My first job will be to build a forge. I have been a fitter and machinist all my life i think i have a bit of a head start having experience working with metal. Again its a credit too you with your skill and your constant refinement of your projects.

Did all of this but with rebar, vice, no forge, heat not req if 1/2''' rebar is used, above 1/2''' then heat is needed. if i had a forge maybe ... cool vid!
@judweaver3635 Ай бұрын
Would it have helped to first upset the area where the square corner was forged in?
@workingwithiron Ай бұрын
You can do that also, but if you see the angles that I upset with in the video they are gradually bought to a 90 degree which still upsets it into itself but eliminates a whole extra step in itself.
@judweaver3635 Ай бұрын
Did you quench the striker to harden it?
@workingwithiron Ай бұрын
I don't remember doing so, looking back at the vid and the striker I think I just finished as is as the flint is way harder than the steel anyway so just chipped the metal off easy enough.

In the UK it is illegal to de-face a bank note. It should also be illegal to de-face a record vice by painting it anything other than roundel blue
@nicodemus7784 2 ай бұрын
a little perplexed you didnt try to weld and fill in the fractured areas that support the jaws but if it will do what you need it to do, i guess it wont matter if you arent going to beat on it.
@workingwithiron 2 ай бұрын
I was going to but it would be used only to hold things for light work. We have blacksmiths leg vices for heavy work and beating on.

This actually a very good restoration. BS free and no unnecessary fabrication or sandblasting. Congrats
@TripleNickelz 3 ай бұрын
I've collected over 100+ old rusted vices over the years with the intent of restoring them to sell. However, I've found the resale value on them in my area isn't very good so I end up losing money restoring them. It's a shame to just scrap them all but cost wise it seems like the best decision value wise?

It's effective. You do have a keen eye though. The last opening was how I opened it first as I was trying to get it in shot and messed it up 😅 popped it back on for the proper shot, hence saying take the opener to the bottle not the bottle to the opener.
