He did a 1 year test on the axe before sending it to make sure it was acceptable. On top of that he's fully open to criticism and accepts it happily. I am 15 and just found this man today, but he has already managed to become my role model and main inspiration. It's people like this that make me want to spend days outside practicing, and makes me extremely happy that I don't fit the 2020 15 year-old stereotype of fortnite and stealing my parents credit cards. Thank you Advoko MAKES, and I hope I can ever manage to reach your level. Update: 16 now, everything else is exactly the same!

@@bobdole7127 lol right? Me and my daughters as an exercise in welding aluminum made a waterwheel. Over the course of 2 years using my excavator and tractor with lots of fun attachments I geo formed my stream into a proper running water source with a 65ft waterfall. So we made an aluminum spoke and hub with wood paddles and timber framed...frame. Hooked to a, sorry to use such tech jargon here, big ass generator. It makes damn near enough power to run my 3,000 sqft home. Doesn't get the shop but that's a full blown fab shop with heating and AC all electric...it has 300 amp service and multiple 3 phase tools. I'm quite aware of his ability to craft such a beautiful wheel in the flipping woods! Im going to talk to some enginerds I'm friends with about turning my wheel into a steam turbine. Using the generator to power a boiler to turn a turbine. Using pumps to run the condensate back up stream to the top of the waterfall. No clue if that will be more efficient or not. But I also have a 27 panel solar farm that I elevated to provide shade for my house that the trees I cut down to remove the shade for the panels used to provide. Anyway sorry to ramble lol. Thoughts on the steam turbine idea?

If you have Japanese stones, you can get them razor sharp as I did mine. The construction is also made of two metal, one outer softer core with a harder one for the cutting edge. I trust this will help somewhat. best of luck & yes they do ship worldwide. Kind regards.

The fact that you did this alone, just says genius, and i ty so much for showing us this incredible technique. But then you video'd, and expertly narrarated it all for our enjoyment. ty i will now pay you for your videos, and tell all of my friends.

As a long time subscriber to his russian channel, I can tell you that his words are a sign of humility. He may be an amateur, but definitely not a novice, rather a very skilled and clever amateur. Besides, we see only very little of what really goes into making all this. As far as I know, there's far more trial and error that we don't end up seeing.

I enjoy your videos. The way you narrate and present your videos is very enjoyable and relaxing to watch. Also, I would rather wait for slow video release times, rather then endure a rushed, poorly thought out video. Thank you for presenting a quality product sir.

Indeed. Teliavelis Baltic god of blacksmiths who forged Sun was apparently considered to be on evil spectrum of morality and the craft itself was believed to be taught to humans by devils (pagan devils not biblical).

I believe the first King Arthur was a smith who pulled a (bronze) sword from a stone (mold). A man w/ such skill might very well become king.

@@thefunkosaurus Sounds logical....When you consider that in those days tools were very very expensive items so in turn the man with the skill to use them would be held in high esteem. Also metal and cloth were expensive and not taken for granted .Well done .Another educational answer.

Cheers, you are right there are a ton of sliding angle grinder builds on Utube, but none look as professionally industrial as yours. I would love to see a video on it, but I would really love to know what you used for the slide/arm track. Your channel rocks, thank you for taking the time to put out content.
