Blacksmithing - Forging a Stake Anvil

I wanted to try and forge a stake anvil that I could bring with me in case I go on a trip or something. It's also pretty neat to have an anvil with smaller horns for finer stuff.
Thanks for watching!

How is the new workshop doing any progress made? pure curiosity. Great content as always

[@MakeNCreate]

Taking it slow but things are moving foward. I'm going to Canada soon for about 3 weeks, moving when I come home and then the workshop is my main focus. So a month and a half and it should be very very close to done!

[@jappel5193]

@@MakeNCreate I hope you have a lot of fun in Canada. We will see when the new shop is ready. Just take it slow indeed.

[@Atlas-tired-version]

The edit he does where the hammering gradually gets faster and more high pitched is my favourite thing in the world

[@bonerDB]

same here. Gr8 idea.

[@S8tan7]

Ah, yes, the bang bang of progress

[@jarrodshirtcliffe2042]

That scared the crap outta me I was like "THATS NOT MEANT TO HAPPEN" then I realised

[@gurvinderkau1e5w18]

I love it too.

[@placidrenegade]

It's his thing lol been doing it for years.

[@ImmortalLemon]

I thought you were a mad lad when you started to use the hacksaw on steel that thick, but then I saw the hammer

[@awldune]

Now you can forge things when you go camping : P

Amused. That’s the most useful and functional tattoo I have ever seen.

[@louied.quijano2254]

Novice Anvil Attributes: +5 strength +7 Agility Effects: Can be used as a secondary weapon. Can be used to forge small knives and daggers. If you are a Lvl 50+ blacksmith, additional effects (if a you have a novice blacksmith in the party you gain +50 agility and +50 dexterity.) Durability: 69%

[@anvil49]

Very nice project!!

[@northernwoodsman]

Sometimes big isnt always better. I have a small anvil in my bedroom( my room is worst then a garage, dont ask) I use it pretty much whenever I need something portable. I made it from a railroad track.

[@EvgeniyMind]

Только за то что пилил ручной пилой 1000👍

[@gurvinderkau1e5w18]

I loved the video. You surprised me with your talent. Super duper cool. Am your fan now for sure.👍🏻

[@luciusirving5926]

I would use a 7018 so the welds will be super ductile. I would also stick a red hot anvil into the log.

[@snorkherder]

Great example of a very portable Stake Anvil, Nice :)

[@johnjude2685]

Sounds like a gamecock on the farm, love em

[@АНДРЕЙКАВ-д5й]

Hello Friend!!! All the same, I never cease to be surprised at your skillful hands and hard work! For whatever you undertake everything turns out very beautifully and practically! I respect you as a man! Health to you and your family! Keep working and please us with your success !!! Greetings from Russia!!!

[@armymonsterdeusvult.2548]

Did you forget to harden it?

To literally have the time to make crap no one will ever use: priceless

[@leemcgann6470]

Very nice sir!

[@joeelliott4609]

you really should spend time on making tongs that fit the material your forging

[@warrenarmstrong2154]

Joe elliott I was on work experience and the guy literally had 130 different tongs, it was amazing.

[@cubicworld4301]

Can you make a helmet, it will look so beautiful

[@nephicus339]

I suddenly have an idea of how to make my wife a jewlers anvil, and how to secure it. Thanks for that! ^_^

[@laser-on-off]

Hey, you have a mig welder, with gas, but no angle grinder ? It's not that expensive, maybe it could help a lot. Anyway, nice video, again. Thanks !

[@thefreewayoctopus]

I think he's used an angle grinder in a video before.

[@colinperkins8794]

He has one Edit he likes to keep things old school so he tends to not use new power tools or whatever and in order to make this it was easier to use a welder because he was going to canada

[@anthonystrunk5360]

It looks really good .. I would probably harden it then temper it back.. looks too good to have a bunch of hammer dings in it.. just sayin

[@cubicworld4301]

You are creasy, this was amazing ! ! !

[@lawmzualafanai9143]

Hardening & Tempering ?

[@neoaaji7969]

Thought he was going to forge weld it but took the easy way and grabbed a mig

[@fourgedmushrooms5958]

No heat treatment?

[@ozmobozo]

I'm just asking, do you need to do someting to make your files stay cool while filing hot steel? Do they get hot enough to lose temper?

[@anthonystrunk5360]

Blacksmiths use old ferrier rasps to file hot materials.. it's called hot rasping.. works very well to remove material quickly..

[@ozmobozo]

@@anthonystrunk5360 Thanks for the information.

[@anvil49]

Where can I get that Borup Coating????

[@ThrowingItAway]

There was so much upsetting content in this video.

[@branni6538]

A sledge hammer makes a good temporary anvil as does a mash hammer. How did you temper the surface......... by leaving it head down in the coals to carburize it as the coals cooled?

[@colinperkins8794]

Love the vids and keep up the good work and have fun in Canada its a blast

[@HTSTAAL]

Great video! I recently started my own small black/blade smithing and making channel. I am still using my phone to record, can you maybe tell me what type of camera you are using? Keep up the good work!

[@pablodelfin9181]

Hi, great work! What type of steel you use?

[@mountainholler290]

And that's why we wear Jeans in the shop !!!!

[@rivergoddess8134]

Just curious if those are Zero Drop shoes you are wearing?

[@thecreatonaut6165]

Great work! Almost looked like you were making a pike!

[@leedavis7508]

Wasn't this type of anvil popular in the old Norse cultures ?

[@NKG416]

how do you train your left arm so it's even with the right arm?

[@patrickhildebrandt9328]

His right arm must be huge by now

[@DanyDCi]

what is that powder??

[@armymonsterdeusvult.2548]

Daniele Canova borax. It helps to keep the steel from oxidizing.

[@fourgedmushrooms5958]

Great work BTW 👍 helpful to have all the tools though 🤠

[@FD-oc9od]

ببخشید این چی بود که ساختید

[@dwayneburbridge3283]

Nice project...I have several bits just like you started with so I have yet another tool to make!😁. The only thing that I will do differently is to preheat the steel after tack welding and before putting down the heavy welding to enable deeper weld penetration. All the best! Dwayne

[@S8tan7]

2:34-3:35 was very upsetting (Badumtss) In all seriousness, what's the original piece? Don't recognise it from anything

[@thefreewayoctopus]

I would like to know what that piece of steel is from too. Is it, like, a giant peg of some sort?

[@jasononeill4821]

It looks like a jackhammer bit to me

[@alfredivarsson989]

you forgot to harden end emper it:(

[@harrisonjackkauder8260]

Can you make a Viking axe?

[@charlegordon645]

Ya venden eze gancho te ahorras 2 dias de trabajo

[@thealicemonster9217]

Honestly some tongs that are not flat tongs to be able to hold your work more securely like the ones you used in the end of the video or the rounded ones that you used from time to time would have been a much better choice than the flat tongs you used. ❤

[@Cyberix75]

ok for hand work, but it's not all forged in one piece.. bleah

[@davenjones9881]

You really have tied your main anvil down well, beautiful thud with little ringing. So satisfying.
