FORGING A METEOR KATANA, DONE AT LAST!
In this video, I finally finish the meteor damascus katana I started ages ago. despite the insane amount of time it took to make though, or maybe because of it, I am very pleased with how it turned out.
This video shows how I go from a bar of steel, to the finished sword. to see how I forge the meteorite, and turned that into a bar of damascus steel, you should check out the previous video, and the videos I have on earlier attempts at this project.
Thanks for being interested in my project, hopefully I can get the next one to you a little sooner!

A couple people had asked about the new power hammer, so here's just a basic overview of how it works. Like I say in the video, If there's something I left out that you're curious about, just let me know in the comments, and I'll try to tell you something interesting and/or useful.
Forging (another) meteorite for meteor Damascus. Meteor Katana: 3
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.4 года назад
In this video, I take another stab at making a bar of Pattern welded steel from a meteorite, to make into a Katana. In the last video of this series, I almost had the bar finished, When I made a reckless error, and ruined the piece. However, in this one, I was finally successful! Since I've already covered most of the relevant information during my first attempt, this will be more of a show tha...
DIY High Temperature Propane Torch, from plumbing parts
Просмотров 35 тыс.4 года назад
Here I show the design I came up with to make your own propane torch! I had been frustrated by how limited the options were for a decent torch, for those of us who don't want to deal with the overhead of specialized gasses, but also need something more powerful than what a handheld propane bottle can provide. So i designed this: It hooks up to a normal 20lb propane tank, and can be run as eithe...

The long unexpected sequel to my other two videos that documented my attempt at making pattern welded / Damascus stainless steel. I've gotta say, this one is pretty exiting. Metal song that plays at various times is Stereneisen, By In Exremo.

Upfront, let me sat this is not a video of a successful project. It was more a way of tying up loose ends that anything else, since I did do a part one attempt for stainless steel Damascus a while back. this it what happened to that project.
Forging a Meteor Katana: 2
Просмотров 7 тыс.4 года назад
The second part of my ongoing meteorite katana project. Sorry about not uploading a video for over six months, but here it finally is. I had a series of failed projects, (one of which is on display here) couldn't muster up the motivation to edit the video for a while, and life got busy in the meantime. Editing a successful project is hard enough, but it's much harder to devote time to editing a...

Forging a meteor for meteorite damascus
Просмотров 125 тыс.5 лет назад
In this video, I forge a piece of Campo del Cielo meteorite down into usable iron plate. It's the first part in a short series, making a small folding knife from meteorite Damascus. The small amount of metal involved, allowed me to show every hammer blow in real time, from raw meteor, to consolidated plate of nickle/iron. BTW, the thumbnail isn't actually from this project, it's a picture from ...
building a waste oil and gas forge
Просмотров 1,5 тыс.5 лет назад
Record of my recent rebuild of my forge. I focus on the new gas and oil powered forge I built. This is the first video I've made that took some serious editing, and as such, it's pretty rough around the edges. In the future, there are a number of changes I'll be making; mainly a bit less rambling narration, and a bit more text. I didn't figure out how to add that until I was almost done. Stay t...
Shostakovich Waltz No 2, on Accordion
Просмотров 5145 лет назад
Dimitri Shostakovich’s Waltz No 2. It was not originally written for accordion, but still one of the best sounding songs to play on accordion in my opinion. I have some minor technical difficulties, bit I do an Ok version of it here.

    Great job. I'm working on a similar torch right now with a 1lb tank with 18 psi output. No compressed air just compressing propane after it leaves the tank with 88 orfice and ventura effect. Only bad part so far is too long torch head and battery pack and compressor and wires and hoses it's a mess to look at

    Seems meteorite iron not the best, in terms of being forged. Seems very brittle to me, and doesn’t cooperate like our terra firma elements (which ironically came from the same source as meteorites, a star that went super nova)

    You should forge the entire Katana blade out of meteorite. You’ll need about 30 lbs worth though to have enough metal.
