As someone who really only knows metal working from a jewelry perspective, this is crazy to watch. I’d love to do this, though. I’d love to make a belt completely by scratch. I’ve long thought it would be a good gift for my dad because my mom is easy to make stuff for my dad. I don’t know. I guess he respects quality and simplicity so it’s often hard to get a good gift

@beaubeckett6045 Ай бұрын

Thanks! Small stuff is really tough to do in the forge. Buckles for your pants are a bit bigger and are actually pretty fun to do. They are a good size and you can really personalize them. Thanks for watching.

Yeah springs and car leap spring is much better to use in making strikers coz it does not easily brakes when it fall in hard surfaces while old file does easily brakes

@beaubeckett6045 3 ай бұрын

Yes! Old files give a good spark but can be very brittle.

@Matek110 3 ай бұрын

how long was this piece when it was not forged?

@beaubeckett6045 3 ай бұрын

Hello, sorry for the slow response. The chunk of coil spring when I start is 6.5 inches long and 3/8 inch diameter spring steel. I then square it up and draw out the ends to about 8.5 inches long before I curl the tips and make the shape. I hope this helps.

Very cool idea, what is the length of the blow tude or we can make them any length?

@beaubeckett6045 7 ай бұрын

You can make them any length you want depending on what you are use it for. Say for an outdoors bonfire you might want them a bit longer or if it is for an indoor woodstove you may want them a little shorter. I usually cut my tube at 32 inches long.

I know this is an old video, but do you know where I could find a tool like that? I know it’s called a ring mandrel, but all the ones I’ve found look like they’re not made for heat.

@beaubeckett6045 7 ай бұрын

You don't come across ring mandrels that often. I actually made mine because I couldn't find one and I knew I would use it regularly. You can make them out of a 1" round bar of steel 1040 or some other similar range medium carbon steel. I forged it to a gradual point and polished it up with a flap disk on an angle grinder. With the 1040 steel it is not heat treated but it is tough enough to take a beating.

@lordm0918 7 ай бұрын

@@beaubeckett6045 thanks for the reply man! I got a small one that might not be made for heat and hammers, but It’s cheap enough that I’ll just use it until it deforms and not lose much. I’d make one, but idk if I have the precision to make it smooth and even enough to fit rings well

@beaubeckett6045 7 ай бұрын

I bet it will last longer than you think. You never really have to hit these rings hard. It is mostly light work. Good luck!

I have virtually replicated your method, and the spring steel does not produce a viable spark. At leat I would not be relying on it in a pinch on a mountainside in the rain! Rather, I would use the spring stele for making knives, punches and the like. Youve got a great shop.

@beaubeckett6045 10 ай бұрын

You are right. The spring steel is a little low on the carbon contend but the stuff I'm using seems to work ok. I use this steel a lot for axe bits. I have also had good luck making strikers out of old files. Thanks for watching.

Beau how do you keep that magnificent beard from getting burned ? loved the timeless laid back approach , so many make so much of Tongs that it gets real tricky to follow. I see you must make a few because you have the specialist jigs, but i can see they can be made just on the Anvil if need be. Fantastic "Old time" smithy with the crunchy floor and a truly superb Anvil. Thank you for sharing your authentic Blacksmith skills , an absolute pleasure to watch and to learn from a Master Smith.

Hello. Before you attached aluminium/foil sheeting on insulation, is it also necessary to put vapour barrier? Your thoughts. Thx mate.

@beaubeckett6045 11 ай бұрын

Hello. sorry for the late reply. I did not put any vapor barrier behind the foil. The foil acts as a vapor barrier. Also with a sauna regularly reaching temperatures close to 100C I'm not sure how a plastic vapor barrier would hold up over time.
