Making a Medieval Spiked Ball Mace - Historical Build

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

You have all been asking for this one for ages and it was good to finally build one that looks medieval but with modern tool processes. What did you think of the testing? Thank you

[@fat_head_Carl]

You'll be able to sell your food processor on late night infomercials in no time!

[@stevealford230]

Great work again as always, mate. I love the fact that you appreciate the necessity of making proper ferrules on the lathe, which too many people are either too lazy to do or ignorant of the importance. What'd you use for bluing? I always use raw linseed oil and beeswax to hot blue, but I'm ever curious as to what techniques and methods others use for everything, especially great fabricators like yourself. Thanks for the fantastic content, bro. Be good and be well.

[@leon.benedict]

I like how you made the welding dots, it looks like some sort of riveting technique. Testing was wicked as usual, you really could make a side-gig out of all the byproducts of these tests, maybe open a food bar called "Violence Salads" or smth.

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

@@stevealford230 tbh depending on what im making i use the lathe if i can’t find a good fit like i did today as i had the scrap to use up, i use a variety of stuff to blacken but this has a nice dark finish and is easy to apply plus im out of blo

[@stevealford230]

@@DiesInEveryFilm I'd prefer to use blo, but here in the States they stopped making "real" blo, instead just adding drying chemicals to raw linseed oil, which make it toxic... and it's a little too risky to boil it myself because its flash point is just a few degrees above its boiling point, so I switched to raw linseed oil... at least until I figure out how to safely make my own blo. Oh, and our BS laws allow them to sell the toxic poison labeled as "Boiled Linseed Oil" even though it's not boiled and is full of other chemicals.

[@Talos_Ysmir]

Imagine doing that all way back then . Amazing work BTW

[@MegaSkyline69]

That's a handsome piece Onur. I really like the blackened steel, great call on your part. Always good to see your take on historic weapons, I'd like to see more of them and I bet your other subscribers would too.

[@DiesInEveryFilm]

Thanks mate, I really wanted to keep it as authentic looking as possible and for sure i have a few more ideas in the books that will be up pretty soon

[@Zie_carpentry]

[@William_Borgeson]
