Make a carving gouge with a broken drill bit

[@machfiver753]

upCycle... now there's a word dying to become an everyday descriptor for taking something broken and making it into something more than it was before. Also great work btw. Gotta love busted to beautiful

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thank you!

[@triune_blades]

Thanks for the explanations throughout the video. I don't necessarily need them but I know there are a lot of people out there that are still new to working metal. I love videos of repurposing items! Giving new life to a broken or forgotten item is what I do with knives and tool restorations. You have given me another idea for when my bits break. Keep it up!

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thank you mate. I'm also a big fan of upcycling tools and materials from my home/workshop. Regards!

[@triune_blades]

@@WoodworkingBarcelona If you're on Facebook please check out my page "Triune Blades". I make knives, do tool restorations, and am beginning to get into wood working. :)

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thats nice! I'll check it. By the way, nice forge!

[@kookyflukes9749]

I like how you give detailed instructions on tempering, hardening and annealing the drill bit.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+From this to that Thank you! I appreciate it.

[@kimcurtis9366]

Very glad I found this post because I've decided to make some bowls and spoons this summer and have no gouges! I do however, have lots of metals, old tools and a forge and anvil! I should be able to make a few gouges for various sizes of bowls and spoons. THANKS!

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

That's great Kim. I'm glad this encouraged you to make your own tools. Please let me know how they turn out tagging me on Instagram. Good luck!

[@Anders.B]

Nice. I like that you added descriptions.

[@allandnone4147]

I appreciate u having the definitions of the different techniques that u were utilizing. Learned something new from that

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+Timothy Fraire Thanks to notice that. Many people work on metal and they neglect that precious info from their videos which is quite bad because that info is the key to achieve good results. Regards!

[@TheFamilyWoodworker]

A creative and extremely useful idea! Even the handle matches your roughing gouge. Well done!

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thanks man!

[@spudpud-T67]

May I suggest that you only hit the high carbon steel when its cherry red. Hitting and forming it when black or grey will form cracks in the steel, ruining the chisel.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+spud pud Thanks for you advice.

Interesting handle design, definitely seems like it would feel comfortable for a long time.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+Josiah Yes it does feel comfortable, but next time I will make it a little bigger.

[@christopheleblanc9175]

great build, and i got so many dead spade bits , tks for sharing

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

Thank you! Give it a try! I'll be surprised.

[@christopheleblanc9175]

i thinking i will for next x mass,,, as i have two friends that every x mass i make us each a home made tool for the last 3 yrs, now,, from large mallets ,small tapping mallets,for chisel work , and this year it a awl with curly maple handle and old Allen keys, , they come out amazing,, and the allen key steel holds a point very well , ps, look for the longer type allen key, , 1-2$ at a yard sale for a set ,lol 4-6" + in length and cut off the L portion and insert in your handle , i chose the black hardened allen;s and not the chromed ones for look , ,,, been wanting a spoon carving gouge for years now,, and your idea fits that build tks ,

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

[@ilyaivanov1745]

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+BUK Thank you BUK.

[@malvinbotnen2467]

I havn’t think about it. It is realy smart. I like to make some stuff and spoons. I haven’t so professional tools like you, but it’s still fun.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+Malvin Botnen you can do this without expensive tools. You just need a cheap dremel a torch, a hammer, a solid chunk of steel to use as a anvil and sandpaper to sharpen the gouge. You can do this.

[@joj156]

good idea. looks like it works pretty good too.

[@WoodworkingBarcelona]

+joe j Thanks! I just works well. I'm sure this is not the only homemade tool I'll make.

Hola Rosaura. No sé exactamente a qué te refieres con que se han hecho negras. Quieres decir que las has quemado por exceso de temperatura? De ser así y según el tipo de acero de la herramienta puede ser muy difícil que puedas arreglarlo por ti misma. Un saludo.

How does one sharpen the inside, or the concave side, of this gouge? Is it possible with the use of a Dremel or a die grinder??

[@beatsbydrew8930]

Nikhil Khandekar one way is to use a custom strop that is convex or there’s these diamond wave sharpeners that are pretty cool, expensive though so you’re better off making a strop
