[@EpicWorkshop]

[@Emil_Nielsen]

Its an absolutley beautiful hammer, i only wish that you would include more footage from the carving, its realy enjoyable to watch

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you so much 😍 Ok noted, I will make the carvings footage bit longer in future videos. I just don't want for the watcher to feel like his time was wasted. 🤔 Moris

[@Emil_Nielsen]

[@EpicWorkshop]

+MrToolmaker23 Thank you Mister 😊 Yeah, though people think i have some magic candles hahah 😂 I learnt it when I was a kid passing hand through candle flame 😉 Moris

[@therelaxingwoodshop7495]

[@izaac1312]

Incredible

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you 😊

[@ericwidany9244]

at 2:38 what kind of technique was used to get the knots so nice and round? It looks amazing especially with the linseed oil. Did you use the dremel to round the tops?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+eric widany I used sand paper and chisels to round everything, and also carve is deeper than hammer head, so it gives it more 3D effect 😊 Moris

[@ericwidany9244]

Thank you very much! skål!

[@EpicWorkshop]

+eric widany 😊🤘

[@merlinsmonkey2001]

[@Urahara1001]

I'm a bit rusty at my runes, but if I recall correctly, the lettering on the holder says "Made By Moris".

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Urahara1001 Correct 😊😉🤘

[@alexbordeaux4653]

Please teach me how to read and write rune

[@alexbordeaux4653]

I looked up rune writing on the internet but I don’t know if it is authentic or not

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Alex Bordeaux I use Tolkien dwarwen runes so not very authentic 😂🍺🍻🤘

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Alex Bordeaux Very easy Use Internet 😉🍺

[@artfan101]

Well done. Subscribed.

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Bro 🤘🍻

[@thedayandude3621]

Great work man, really love it. You really earned your sub. I'm curious tho, how did you get the burning effect? You seem to first oil it, then burn it and then rub off the smut or how does it work?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+The Dayan Dude Thanks bro 😉 😊 🍺 You just char it l, not burn 😉 And you don't need to preoil I changed my mind but I edited it wrong hahah 😲 Just char it and when it is black, put some linseed oil and remove black residue from the high spots to get that old effect 😉 Moris

[@terryholdredge6393]

Exquisite!

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Bro 🤘

[@anthonyhargis6855]

Awesome and beautiful all in one! But . . . I think Thor would need something a little bigger for slaying giants. LOL Looking at your technique, I'm assuming that you're using the carving knives for a quicker removal of the larger pieces, then using a dremel tool for the fine tuning?

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you, the bigger one is beside it... but still, I need to make bigger one :) I actually carve a lot with hand tool and then I flatten the background of the carve with Dremel tool because I find it easier :) Thanks for commenting :D Moris

[@thewoodworkingmetalhead2712]

Epic Workshop i told you it would be awesome to make a BIGGER ONE

[@frankbags462]

very nice

[@marbman1990]

How did you learn how to wood carve? What tools would you recommend for a beginner on somewhat of a budget?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Tyler LaPlante I just started doing it 😄😊 I really don't know, at first I bought myself "two cherries" brand and they suck, I hate them and I overpaid them 😣 Now I have Auriou and they are amazing, but expensive. I really don't know what to recommend but don't buy two cherries carving set 😞 Moris

[@marbman1990]

Epic Workshop which type of chisels or tools do you use the most? Or does it all kind of depend?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Tyler LaPlante I have Stanley sweetheart chisels, but it depends for what task you need an tool

[@Beettlejuice77]

that is awesome

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Beettlejuice77 Thank you Bro :D

[@garrettfultz6990]

+Angel Pacheco Thank you and welcome aboard :)

[@SykesFW]

awesome, yet again, what kind of wood are you using on your projects, I would love to give it a go

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Madd Hatter Thank you :) I used maple and teak (but try to avoid teak because it is too soft) Good luck with the project 😉☺😊

[@Sarqastique]

I need to make this soo much XD....nice job :)

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thanks bro :)

[@cashcadegaming1916]

would you be able to recommend anything other than the gouge chisels you use to carve? As i am in Australia, i can't find any gouge chisels. so, would be able to recommend anything or are they the only good carving chisels out there.

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Cashcade Gaming I really don't know I have Auriou but those are on high budget (I have 4 of them) I order everything via Internet I can just say: don't buy "two cherries" 🍒, overpriced shit! Hope I helped a bit, good luck!

[@cashcadegaming1916]

thanks

[@LesPero]

Svaka cast covjece

[@EpicWorkshop]

Hvala majstoreee \m/

[@PeaBraine]

I LOOVE THIS I Have a few questions about this build. Is that candle a specific kind of candle used to darken? Or is it just a normal candle? And what did you use to sand off the sides of the mallet that was charred? And what did you drip over the handle?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+PeaBraine Thanks bro 😄🤘🍺 It is normal beeswax candle 😉 hah You mean carved side, I didn't sand it, I only wiped off the excess linseed oil with piece of cloth and that removes the charring from candle from high spots on carving 😉 Chocolate syrup 😉🍫 Jk. Linseed oil 😂

[@viewer1youtuber529]

Great Mallet! Where can I get the Norse weave pattern from?

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Bro 💚🍺 Check google I don't remember anymore

[@michelleong2762]

Lovely carvings! I've been trying some myself and I love that burning technique you're using to get those colors! What did you apply on the wood before you put it over the candle if you don't mind sharing?

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Michelle 💚🤘 I don't remember, you don't need anything in order it to work, you can put linseed oil and beeswax after you char it over the candle 😉

[@austinshort5668]

Beautiful work! Noob question, what type of candle are you using to burn? Is it anything specific?

[@EpicWorkshop]

Normal candle (paraffin wax) beeswax candle also work, or oil lamp 🤘

[@samiam7]

Wow this is awesome! What chisels are you using for this type of project, in case I wanted to get some?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Sam I Am Thanks Sam, I have Stanley sweetheart chisels, and two cherries carving set (which is junk btw) and dremel really helps in some situations 🙂

[@sjscreations2608]

Beautiful design, did you make it up or find it amongst all the other crazy stuff on the web??? Cheers Sean

[@EpicWorkshop]

+The Bungling Woodworker Thanks Sean, I found photo on internet and adapted it a bit

[@joserivera8366]

I appreciate your work. I saw in your workshop a yellow Jointer-Planer. What mark is it ? Thanks Regards from Cancun, Mexico 🇲🇽 take kare

Thank you Bro 🤘 i don't know the brand but it is not Volkswagen 😉 it broke last year.. greetings from Croatia 🍻

[@jakavujcic9901]

[@EpicWorkshop]

+PUDNING power With linseed oil and light sanding :)

[@jakavujcic9901]

thank u brotha

[@marcisozols2800]

that handle sure looks comfortable

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Singing Duckling you would be surprised, it is nice be hammer is super light weight and I always hold hammer lightly in my hand so I cannot feel the squareness of the handle

[@craftingoutofscratch2980]

what is it? that black? 1:09

[@EpicWorkshop]

It is copying paper, you have link to it on my Kit webpage.

[@stephengreene1504]

Can you provide a link to the pattern you used? Thank you

[@EpicWorkshop]

I don't know it

[@ysofr0sty766]

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Bro 💚🍺

Yeah, I need a weapon build 🤘

[@kalebstavneak2229]

Have to get myself around to making one. And are both sides carved?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Kaleb Stavneak That would be great if you make one 😊 Nope I didn't carve both sides, I only need one side to show 😊

[@mick882]

Beautiful carving is there a template for the design?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Mick Lawlor Thank you Mick, I found a few pictures on internet and combined them to get this final look, but I don't have any templates 😢

[@angusgreeneyeslefay9485]

nice work ,i see that you use the Anglo-Saxon Futorc,is there any reason for the Haegl-Rune?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Angus Modron LeFay I use Tolkien dwarwen runes so I really don't know much, I use mannaz rune because it is letter M in dwarwen and my name is Moris😊😎🤘

[@angusgreeneyeslefay9485]

ah really sorry ,i missunderstood it al by the left dragon is a Haegel or Hagalaz Rune ,i incorrectly made assumptions for what im really sorry .Beautiful letter yours Mannaz means the Perfect Man in Elder Futhark.Being a Vitki when i saw the Holy Myolner i just got exited ,again my apologies.

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Angus Modron LeFay oh no problem bro I can see that you are rocking those runes 😊😉 Yeah I know the meaning of mannaz but I am not the perfect man hahaha 😜😄 Have a nice day Moris

[@darklink594]

great work! What did you put on the mallet to make it burn like that? I would really like to try it with some of my projects

[@EpicWorkshop]

+darklink594 Thanks bro :) I only chared it on top of the candle ;) Try it it is very easy nothing is needed just play with the distance between flame and thing you are charing :D Good luck and have a nice day Moris

[@sofians1483]

Awesome! Did you use Oil or which liqiud is that?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Sofian S I used linseed oil to protect it 😄

[@joshswickard7128]

what is the tracing paper you are using and where can i buy some?

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Josh Swickard It's called indigo paper ;) I have no idea I got it from my neighbor, try to searc on Internet :)

[@daniellawrence3829]

any luck? ive looked all over for it and cant find it anywhere

[@VestgutaViking]

What kind of liquid was it you soaked the hammer in before burned? Great work btw!!!

[@EpicWorkshop]

+VestgutaViking It was linseed oil but It isn't necessary to char the piece :)

[@VestgutaViking]

Epic Workshop thanx!😊

[@EpicWorkshop]

+VestgutaViking no problem 😊

[@leopoldoguevaradelcastillo999]

Que aceite le pones ?

[@EpicWorkshop]

Can you translate it in English 😅😊

[@nonothing92]

What is the black thing used to do the detailing

[@EpicWorkshop]

+No Nothing You probably mean the black paper, it is indigo paper

[@Kedanjt42]

to you have a file I could print of what you engraved on to the hammer head? I've been looking around for something cool to engrave.

[@EpicWorkshop]

+Dallin Dunn Go to my Instructables page and find the photo in the comment of the project 😉 I hope that you will find it 😊

Epic Workshop thank you. This will definitely make some of my pyrography projects a lot easier

[@davidgood2598]

hello, ? for you. what kind or brand of carving tools do you use, or where can I purchase so I attempt to carve. I bought a cheap set and all I'm doing in making indents instead of carving or cutting. also want to make spoons any help would be appreciated thanks

[@EpicWorkshop]

+David Good Hey David, I have Two Cherries carving set but I don't recommend them because they're too brittle and they are too expensive. Maybe try to sharpen your chisels really good (shaving good), and for spoon making you need big gouges 25 mm up to 35 mm wide. Watch Paul Sellers video where he makes a spoon ;) Hope that I helped a bit :) Have a nice day :D Moris

[@westondickson7376]

Would you sell about 30 of the wooden Thor pendants

[@EpicWorkshop]

Thank you Bro 💚 Unfortunately I don't, It takes too much time.

[@HrafnNordhri]

@@EpicWorkshop Understandable. It would be an amazing altar piece. Take that as a compliment please.
