ok 4:25 was just crazy lol

Dont let the core of the cable get too cool while setting the welds. Also if you would have forge weld each one first then stagger them to create less space for scale

Great guide! Thank you

Do you sell froes?

Bought the same vice about 3 hours ago..... i also was wondering if the knob came off the back bit so i can clean the thread, thanks for the vid frome the uk👍

Ribbon burners are a fad. They work so well because they are forced induction. Make a regular forced induction burner and you will have a superior heat source. I have a 2 burner forge with burners I built myself using a .025 mig tip. I forge at 4 psi and forge weld at 6 psi. I used a 75 cfm blower motor for the air source. Forge On!!!

Amazing❤

Man stick to your day job.. That was hard to watch. Have you ever heard of a wire wheel??!? Jeez it was lije watching a 3 year old try and put a round peg in a square hole.

Nice video, im looking at one of these myself.

You might want to consider removing that piece welded to the jaw spring. It is restricting the compression along the entire length of the spring as it is designed to do. With that plate welded to the spring,it is restricting full length movement and concentrating the compression to a small area that will eventually cause the spring to crack at that point. Otherwise very nice job.

By now I'm sure you've discovered that running the motor as slow as you were showing us puts serious overload on the motor. Most VFD RUclips video's caution the viewer about reduced cooling air flow at low speeds. This because the fan is integral to the motor spindle. What those RUclips vid's never seem to mention is the slower fan is only a small part of the issue. VFD's employ PWM along with varying the Line Frequency. Most manufacturers control this by varying the Carrier frequency that produces the PWM. They usually set this to deliver maximum torque @ 50 - 60Hz. . Problem is this setting will dramatically increase input current at very low frequencies. If your not careful your motor will emit smoke if run for long periods at 10 to 20Hz ! Wakodahatchee Chris

You used the wrong turminals those round fittings you “ground down”

Thanks for your reviews. Looking at upgrading from my Princess Auto 2x28 and nexus is only about 40 minutes from me. Just trying to see if I can actually fit a 2x72 in my space. But the nexus price point I just might have to make space.

This is easier then I thought thank you

Sorry I should say I tempered at 400 degrees F not C!

Thanks for making this. I just ordered the motor from your link. It's hard to find a decent priced 3 phase in canada.

The heat definitely saved you time. The liquid wrench works just gonna take time as you've documented. Nice

Thanks for sharing! I take it froes aren’t typically hardened?

👍

Thanks for the review, I'm eyeballing a Nexus for my small workshop/garage and I'm heavily overthinking it.

Does nexus have any contact wheel attachments? I see you have another smaller wheel?

Great job! keep it up! I know you are another Canadian brother, so i am wondering where you got your jigs for grinding. thanks again! ps my Nexus grinder is here this week! i got the motor from the same site as you, got my vfd, and I am going to watch your video to see how to wire this bad boy up!

do you watch anything from Green Beetle? he does some really interesting work,

What you do to close those gaps in the cable is Before you weld all of your four bundles together you take each bundle of cable do a pretty good heat stick it in your vice and twist that cable tight following its current twist and then stack your four bundles and weld them all together then go to for your first forge weld. But i’m sure you know that by now

I have the 2hp iron horse motor from the same place. Is it safe to assume the wiring should all be the same? Also I saw you mentioned in a different comment that you used 12/3 and 4 to future proof it. Meaning you all you’d have to to do is reconfigure the vfd and switch the plug for the wall if you end up switching to 230? Thanks for making this video, helped me out a ton!

Cool video...what steel did you use...

Great job bud really enjoyed watching you make the sword can't wait to see more from you!! 👍👍

How'd the wood not burn when you were blowtorching it?

I've been looking to move into a bigger shop and offer bigger knife/sword making courses with 2 or 3 students and I was looking to buy a couple more grinders. I'm really glad I stumbled on your videos, you've helped make my decision for me. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you very much!

Kind people don't need or want to video what they do for others cuz they are doing it for the people not for themselves.

🤝👍👍👍👍

Hey, I am most likely buying the NG3 with a 3 phase 1.5hp motor and vfd. I am in ontario. I am concerned about power. I have a plug that goes to my panel and is 20amp. Do you know if this will work with my power? thanks for the good video.

Thank you sir

Your first effort is better than mine. In my valley South Africa, I countered the freezing of the bottle by placing it in a big drum of water. Looking forward to your next video.

I have the same grinder and I agree 100%. I've had it for a little over a year now as well and its held up quite well. I bought a cheep used motor 1.5hp, but single phase so no variable speed. so far so good but I wish I had the option to slow things down. Hard to beat 40$ though. I also wish I had the option to tilt, especially when using the small wheels. All in all very pleased with the grinder and it's likely the best budget grinder on the market in Canada.

🤝👍👍👍

Nice work, Bro!

Heard using a 60° V swage forge welding cable helps alot. But, I'm a rookie and can't even forge weld yet, so... don't rely on me to have good advice 😳

So how has this 2x72 been treating you I mite buy one but my only deal breaker is I'd like a tilting grinder for my shop

Beautiful!

Awesome! At what pressure do you run it?

dooope, great video

Could've made a bridge for the chasms :D

Nice 👌

How large is the propane orifice going into air pipe?

Build a dam, block the stream, work the furnaces night and day! Eat your heart out Saruman! (I like the mixed wood on the handles)

Mousehole anvil?

Great job finishing this off! When you told me about smithing a few years ago (was it 3 or 4 now?), I never knew you'd get to doing some really really cool/intricate stuff like this! I'm proud of you! Keep up the good work!

I love this! It looks so good :D Does this mean it's time for strawberries and some longbottom leaf?!
