COVERING YOUR JAWS? 😂😂😂😂

Are you FACTORing in marshmallows for dessert?

[@nicholascervone4734]

Completely off the topic of the video. My grandfather used to use beeswax to stop leather pulley belts from squeaking. He told me he had a stick with a square box on the end to put the block of beeswax in and then he'd go around to the machines and place the block of beeswax onto the tensioner pulley why the machine was running allowing it to spin spreading and even coding of wax on the pulley. But only if the tensioner pulley was on the opposite side of the belt of the Maine/ drive.

I always felt that the mutual apprenticeship that you and Alec had brought into relief the difference between blacksmithing and bladesmithing. He was a more experienced blacksmith, and you were a more experienced bladesmith. This part of this project definitely falls into the more blacksmithing side of things in terms of the techniques required, and it's plain to see that you've continued to improve by leaps and bounds in the last few years!

[@gabrielcairns7050]

As a jeweller I never understood why blade and blacksmiths hated filing. I played with steel for the first time a couple weeks ago. It was awful. I offer my heartfelt condolences for your files and patience

[@benfrederick3147]

im a blacksmith/bladesmith and recently traded workshops with a master goldsmith. Such fun and a great experience to explore the similarities and differences between the metals. He was also appalled with the slowness of filing and especially the hand sanding! Huge respect for your craft too! I should add we made some mokume gane at hsi workshop and great to see the similar techniques across both disciplines!

[@gabrielcairns7050]

There's so much that each discipline can learn from eachother! I'd love to try a full day in a blacksmith's workshop, it seems so interesting and fun. Mokume Gane is very cool stuff! I've often thought about trying proper pattern welding techniques to it, I might just have to try sooner rather than later

[@ogi22]

@@gabrielcairns7050 Good mental preparation for filing/grinding at metal work is very important. If i have to grind, file or sand something and i know it will take me a lot of time, i try to treat it as an opportunity for hmm... meditation? If the job is quiet - filing/sanding, i also listen to audiobooks. That helps a lot :D Especially when your thinking process on what you are doing is done - not much room for a mistake with mechanical, repetitive movements that you already planned, marked and prepared. So making that brain busy with an audiobook is wonderful.

You probably wouldn't like aluminum bronze that I work with then. The stuff is ridiculously hard. I cast 35 and 50 mm wide by 3mm hearts out of it. Sand and polish to a mirror, then acid etch. The alloy I use comes out with a beautiful iridescent crystal pattern. It's really pretty but it takes quite a bit of hand sanding. I've made keepsakes for people with some of the hearts. Leave it shiny and etch a name onto it. It's almost relaxing for me to sit and sand them.

[@LittleGreyWolfForge]

@@keithyinger3326try knife steel man!

[@ChipoSkippy]

Happy to see the Boudry working after all the time you’ve spent getting repaired and refurbished!

[@Gabrulo_knifemaking]

"The reason we call it forging is because... we are using the forge" wise words from a wiser man that got wisest

[@robertmcpherson138]

13:38 I love this look of "Am I really putting THIS much effort into a Marshmallow Toaster?" Always fun when someone's doing an absurd project when they just take a moment to reflect on the absurdity of what they're doing.

[@timcoombe7880]

Perhaps shaft rather than blade? Great work as always Will. Thanks for sharing.

[@xeode]

damn you guys are top level at this stuff, so many beautiful shots so thoughtfully put together. the craftsmanship and presentation polished, loving your work

[@loukovanda5539]

OH NOOO THE MEATBALL PINCH!!! OUCH!!! great work Will.

[@jaumefontane7352]

So glad you started this project! I've been waiting for the time when you start forging again. One of my favorite videos is the one you built the Damascus screwdriver. Keep it up 😁🫡

[@NoCheeseNoMercy]

Sir William Stelter, you should also make the worlds finest tool set, or just damascus, for a fireplace to go along with that marshmallow cooker!

[@timm1139]

Hear, Hear, I doth second this motion!

[@neilredelinghuys3263]

Hey. gotta say, your videography and editing is fantastic. love them closeup shots. the project is also awesome!!

[@RedBeardOps]

Man... that thing is wild! Awesome and entertaining work as always sir!

[@frankierzucekjr]

This is very cool. That pinch looked pretty painful lol

[@thespazdragon]

Will Stelter, master of the stretch. Always humorous to see the way you reach for those sponsor integrations.

[@saywhaatnow]

Very satisfying to watch this one.

[@AndyFromBeaverton]

The world's nicest marshmallow roaster is down the street from me. This sweet grandma also makes the nicest grilled cheese sandwiches I've ever eaten.

[@microbuilder]

You can use the tips the guard to hold a couple spare 'mallows too, good thinking lol

[@ajhearn4535]

Gives me a medieval/lord of the rings kinda feel. Love your style

[@eaglebreath5]

This is some mighty fine crafting Mr. Stelter. Congratulations on a magnificent piece.

[@iolithblue]

For pancakes, remember one, one, one, one. One egg, one cup self raising flour, one cup milk, one bit of melted butter, one bit of sugar

[@fishinhank942]

That mammoth ivory is beautiful! Nice work Will!

[@alcolyte666]

this is one of the cooler videos you've made! wod love to see more along the armorer vein!

[@terminalpsychosis8022]

This is awesome. Really a show of various techniques. Nice job.

[@moreybandel5560]

That is a ton of work! That being said... That's definately the most awesome roaster fork I've ever seen! Nice work!

[@ericmitchell985]

Just a note, that the silent section around the fourteen minute mark? Really, really awesome. Don't know why, but it really drew me in. Nice editing all the way around.

[@billycurran9688]

Can't wait to see it finished

[@Argosh]

This is so dumb and awesome, it clears the threshold for brilliance easily. 😂

[@nicholas8476]

Congrats on this build for getting the Best of Everything Else!

[@timothycurvin7670]

It was awesome to see you forge that, Will! Showing some hard-earned skill for sure!

[@cob7979]

Call it the "Shaft" Can you dig it... "badabadum, badabadum, badabadum bum"

[@TheSurferboy2]

That looks amazing love to see it finished!

[@GeekusKhaniCAs]

Why not make a recurve bow? I think it would be a fine challenge for you. Keep up the awesome work!

[@nathanklosterman4907]

Next up the nicest set of forks, tongs and spatula for the grill. Love watching you work and awesome mallow toasting forks.

[@jeremypaulson4726]

So happy to see how well the Beaudry is working after your hard work

[@JamesC-tx1uc]

Great video!

[@Abrikosmanden]

You're an absolute wizard, Will 😲 forming a block of steel into that with heat and hammers with no grinding, cutting or welding is just mind boggling! (Yeah, forge welding and hot cutting, I now - that just makes it even more impressive)

[@paulallan1032]

Great show, cool fork👍 If the bit between the guard and the fork is like a blade, but not sharp, I would call that a ricasso😉

[@HazItMade]

Will, I gotta tell you, young man. Your growing skill set is amazing to me. Working that piece and forging it down to the point you did is some EXCELLENT work. And because I'm a dad and can't resist, I'm going to recommend you keep that finished tool in your truck when you're driving. That way you'll always be at a fork in the road. (Help, I've fallen and can't reach my good jokes!)

[@oneshotme]

Still it's looking good Will!! Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up💙💛

[@magnumpunch]

This is amazing, you are becoming a true master man

[@nicholasviney5975]

As summer is coming a BBQ tool set with a steak knife would be cool to add to the mallow maker

[@GoldmansGarage]

I counted at least 3 vises. Reed 108, prentiss 22/23? , and a heuer I think. How about a tour of all the shop vises?

[@armandvanzyl6325]

Finaly back. Have been waiting for what feels like forever. Keep up the good content. Also what a uniqe idea, love it.

[@jnsdroid]

0:13 This is the worlds nicest marshmallow roasting fork ... tribute

[@sebastiankuchler8841]

Such a cool Video! I like your explanation and the editing is sweet 👌🏼

[@Donorcyclist]

Great video, and thank you for the sounds of the shop! Great job, Will!

[@eldril1009]

great job the power hammer look very nice!!

[@thecockneyworkshop]

Well done looking good Glad to see you forging something and not just all about the money like some ginger blacksmiths from the UK

[@joepvanmoorsel4140]

What an amazing video. Great shots, love the sounds. And what an amazing silly idea, I LOVE IT!

[@FarmsteadForge]

Pretty fancy! Can't wait to see it finished.

[@joelblair8339]

That is probably some of the best hand forging I have ever watched. Very cool

[@michaelsilva7085]

Hola crap man! What an awesome piece of forging. Great job. Thanks for the content.

[@MrCrosserdog]

Love the work man! Glad you did something different then most smith's!

[@PeterKNoone]

Amazeballs. Can't wait to see the final product.

[@bentoombs]

Nice job. Cool idea. I can't wait to see it done

[@chewyakarieckenicholas6049]

Man I would love to get the chance to try out the Boudry power hammer and make a blade with you and that's going to be an awesome marshmallow roster

[@MrKaremoller]

Nice sounds in this one! The lack of music is so soothing!

[@ash.j.]

Beautifully forged Will

[@danielu1763]

Cool to see you forging again 👍

[@kilo_kilo]

ah the song of the needle descaler. what a pleasant chorus.

[@Grandwigg]

The super s'mores marshmallow toaster. Always love to see uploads here!

[@adamragz]

I LOVE this!! I made a single marshmallow poker, but am loving your design! My 2.0 version will definitely be more sword like!!

[@adolphoboder6195]

Very cool

[@g-dub1553]

I like the audio-video fade-transition, one step leading into the work. Really nice and engaging

[@jjloughlin6180]

You've come a long way. Looks good.

[@loganrandall4662]

I really enjoyed this editing style.👍

[@Renaissance_sheepdog]

Awesome forging project! Looks great dude

[@JohnRoberts71]

Great content thanks for sharing

[@mckbalisong]

Cant wait to see this at bladeshow!!

[@tsirron]

That looks wonderful. I know it’s hard to stay clean, but you have some dirt on your lip. Lol

[@Sgt_Potato_1]

The moment in this video that every single maker of anything around the world understands in any language at any point in all of history: "It's gonna be easy! Aaand I just jinxed myself..." **narrows eyes and looks slightly bothered** 😂😂

[@johngemma4921]

*heats up marshmallows then quenches them*, Awesome idea! Love the videos!

[@alfiegoldsworthy7132]

Would it make sense to call it a shank (like on a drill bit) rather than a blade?

[@dragonwaterforge]

Great video looks awesome

[@dryroasted5599]

Long way to go for that segue to the ad.😁

[@clivepayne3345]

Great work as usual Will, the handle material is awesome, where do you sauce that from?

[@briantrace9945]

Me thinks the toasting fork guard shape resembles what Will saw when he was looking in the mirror at the semblance of the moustache that he's trying to grow. I also struggle with design problems and sometimes look to other resources to draw inspiration. In this case, Will has pulled off an elegant design but in the back of his mind he must be worried that growing a moustache as modelled by Bud Abbott, Errol Flynn, David Niven, Clark Gable, and Don Ameche leads to its own design problems particularly when Hulk Hogan moustaches come back in fashion. You need so much more steel! Only a small tease for a huge talent. Sorry for the leg pull, but the workmanship is exquisite - can't wait for the finished product and moustache.

[@Wreckz_Tea]

I appreciate the extra niche'ness of it. It's extra bespoke and I want one

[@saginawdan]

Great project Will! 👍🔥👍

[@elementjoe]

Boudry is looking good!

[@danhunik7949]

I have seen a 1000 bowie knife videos and 500 sword videos but only one marshmallow roaster. I am looking forward to more oddities like this.

[@nikm2106]

Cool project. Also your arms are looking big man. Keep doing what youre doin in the gym.

[@tday99]

Cool idea

[@Kris_at_WhiteOaksFarm]

OMG! And I just go cut a forked stick. That's going to be a beautiful piece to pass down for generations. Yes, it is!

[@Chromaz]

The forge asmr made me fall alseep halfway through this lol I could listen to that all day

[@BraxxJuventa]

Thanks for filming Will. 👍😁

[@ashsteele7361]

I'm glad this isn't cut into 21 parts 😅

Looks very cool

[@RIPBlueInk]

Forging! YaY!🎉

[@landraven0404]

Coool edit ! Nice vid ! Nice job!

[@Drakonaut]

I would buy one of these, but definitely would want to reduce the price for myself with it not being Damascus, and maybe different handle material [don't know how expensive a tusk handle costs compared]. Love the design though!
