A Goofy Video For Father's Day And Just For Fun

[@richardparker1699]

Happy Father's Day to you. This was a very good video Tim. I didn't know that the voice was you talking thru a funnel. Lol. Have a wonderful day.

[@BIGDOGFORGE]

Thank You So Much And Thanks For Watching

Happy Father's Day Tim✌

Happy father's day Tim😁😁😁😁

[@A.J.Collins]

It is fascinating how having a need in one job turns into multiple other jobs. Very entertaining.

[@spike4972]

This was a great video. I’ve found your content recently and am really loving it. I hope that you and your loved ones are all in good health and that this gap between videos has not been caused by poor health or other issues with you or your loved ones. Stay healthy, stay safe, and keep being awesome even if you don’t keep making content

[@ChristCenteredIronworks]

Brother this has got to be one of the best videos I've seen of yours :-) absolutely loved it! 👍👍

Loved the cultured british accent. Since it happens to be your shop you can call the tools what ever you want to.

[@BIGDOGFORGE]

Thank you and thanks so much for watching

[@Moondog-wc4vm]

After watching many years of the BBC I think the accent was spot on. It matched with the opening visuals and reminded me strongly of my childhood. I just needed to see a Dalek and I would have been behind the sofa like a shot!

[@BrianDaleNeeley]

A terrific video. The cinematics were great. Happy Father's Day!

[@BIGDOGFORGE]

Thank you very much!

Nice job Tim, looks much better than the one I fabricated for the Montesa exhaust. Thanks for the instructional.

[@paulsalb1686]

Great tool making Tim. Also Happy Father's Day!

[@BIGDOGFORGE]

you to my friend

[@trknust]

Tim, I used to chase my anvil around the shop as well but also didn't want to bolt it Down. So I tried putting a piece of maybe half inch thick foam rubber under the wooden block I have it on then trimming the foam right at the edge of the wood. It absent moved an inch ever since but I could still move it if I need to. Thanks for all the fun you help put into steel working.

[@BIGDOGFORGE]

Thanks for watching

[@AM-hf9kk]

That's smart. Certainly less work than what I was thinking: drill the floor and epoxy a couple big nuts into the hole. That would allow the anvil to be bolted down, unbolted to move freely, and keep anything from sticking out of the floor when it's not in use. Of course, you'd have to make a plug to keep crud out of the nuts other times.

[@Lesnz2009]

That is a great wrench looks great

The voice over sounds just like a 1950's Irish Pathé newsreel voice over.

What if you made can damascus but used good steel for the can and work it into the billet. Also stacked nuts and washers with screws and nails and bolts and stuff through them.

🤔 first time blade making3” hidden tang...can I use a propane torch to get it to non magnetic 🧲... and if so how long would it take to accomplish this before quenching? In inquiring minds need to know 🤪

It depends on the blade, a 3' sward no a 6" knife yes. it wont take but a few minuets and it will be ready to quench try to keep the heat even across the blade. good luck.
