Looking your videos is beside the great respect for your extra ordinary skills really contemplative for me. They are edited very great in it`s simpleness, no annoying music, no hectic cuts. Thank you
This project outlines one of the many joys of being a blacksmith. If something breaks, or needs an improvement, blacksmiths can fix the problem or improve the equipment with their skill set. Great video and I congratulate you on your skewing skills! You're doing great!
Torbjörn Åhman I got to show my grandchildren videos like yours! They grew up with the reality that if you want something or if you need something you do not even have to leave your house, it is brought to your door. It‘s not that long ago that if something broke or was needed you had to make it yourself or if you were lucky to have a blacksmith within a days travel and were „rich“ enough to pay him, you could have it custom made for you! Keep the good videos coming to educate our offspring!
I've only watched two of your videos so far but I enjoyed the little nature interludes in both of them as well as the more obvious appeal of your videos. Thank you.
Great video. No time wasted on grandstanding endless gabbing, as most videos do. Your actions send the message, "This is how stuff gets done." very good
Ferreiro, Marceneiro, Arquiteto, Agricultor, Soldador, Cozinheiro , Chefe de família e RUclipsr ! Parabéns ! :) Blacksmith, Joiner, Architect, Farmer, Welder, Cook, Head of Household and RUclipsr! Congratulations ! :)
Ohhh you made my day, just came in from forging a round ball wall hook for clothes, and then I saw you put this video up....you never cease to amaze me with your talents.....so good. That swage worked out fabulous.
Fantastic work! I paid $160 for a forge last week, along with a bunch of coal to use as fuel. I've already made a hive tool out of an old file to use in my top bar hive. It's very basic, but at least I got to get some steel hot and bang away at it with the hammer. Your videos are inspirational. Thanks.
Best game of ‘can you guess what it is yet?’ ever. Always enjoy these vids. That paint looks good. Better then the watery rubbish we get here in the U.K. now.
Another innovation on your tool great have done things similar to that but never any forging . But at the beginning seeing that hack saw going and the that short tuff blade, reminded me of my first knife dad made for me but he let me help it was in the 50s but cannot for the best of me remember the year probably mid 50's . Any way still carry that knife to this day great memories of good times as you will have when your 75 . Happy Trails young man
There's a certain *irony* in 'dirtying' the surface of the perfect ball, arc welded onto a rod, on the belt sander so that the surfaces of swaged pieces eventually have an 'authentic' look.
A very useful tool and well made too, every tool in your workshop that is missing a handle will soon have a new one made for it now. Regards from your Aussie mate.
i can't belive that the beast youtube blacksmith has not done yet a Ram's head , it would be great if were something like ram's head bottle opener. I love your videos, i learn a lot with them :) greetings from Mexico, master .
Very nice... I always wondered how these handles are made... expected that they come out of turning shops but obvious forging is older than turning. Thumbs up.
Very cool tool! Kept me wondering until the very end! Thank-you for all the great videos. I love that you take a break to appreciate nature, it creates a nice balance. Kudos for your consistent use of safety gear - you take the time to work safely and protect your health. I know Sweden has its share of problems just like the rest of the world, but watching this is a pleasant respite from the political and social chaos here in the United States.
Hi Torbjörn, great video! Love how you make tools that are for using around the house. No crazy swords 👍 keep up the good work! Greetings from the Netherlands
No,I am thinking that a axe is to rough and a saw also. Making a tree look nice and not cutting a tree down. Like bonsai but than a bigger tree. I want to know how to make that chisel not how to cut the branches.
Nice video, Torbjörn. Not bad your tool, that has become really good. Such "gags" were always used on machines as "on and off, switch". Smile, as a Wood turner, you're doing good.
I love a good shop-made handle. Also reminds me how much I miss turning, I did some many years ago at school but I've never had a lathe at home. One day.
Getting an actual lathe may be a thing put off due to cost ... but if you like DIY stuff, you can make a spring/pull lathe fairly easily, loads of videos on that on youtube (just follow along), technique does look a bit different due to the drive mechanism, but the end results are pretty much the same. And a spring/pull lathe can be build for a fraction of the cost.
Another great build Torbjörn! Enjoyed the sequencing to get to the finish line and didn't get you were building 2 from one billet...got me. ;-) Man your lathe skills are like everything else you do...a natural, with practice of course. Thank you Sir! Love the interlude of geese and Kronoberg Castle, nice!
Great to see you using the skew chisel. They take a bit of practice but are so good to use. Most RUclips turning videos are scraper from start to finish. Real turning should use the cutting edge of the correct chisel for the job, resulting in a great surface finish.
I could watch u for hours and well hey I have been! Lol 😂 u r just so talented at everything u do. I went crazy for ur green-hse. I am retiring and want something to keep me busy and I live working in the heard except I’m to old to work the property now so I just thought I’d scale it down to flowers and ferns and the such...juts something I can handle. But heck...I’m going to have to pay someone to build it and I know they would never build it as good as u...ur green -hse is immaculate and perfect for what u will nee. Don’t forget the earth worms. I buy mine..,about 250 -500 at a time and they add everything to the garden. I have my own compost barrel and use it every year...my specialty is hot hot peppers so if u would like some let me know ...I would live to send u some Free of course. I’m even growing the hottest pepper in the world. ‘’ the Carolina Reaper” yessiree...also ghost peppers, scorpion, scotch bonnets, jalapeños, and cayennes so if u would like some let me know...I’m not sure if there is a custom problem since they are raised here...have a good day sir...
im a long time sub. ive watched alll of your videos at least twice if not three or four times on some vids but i just love your work and channel. keep up the great work torbjörn!
sweet no swage for me, but.. got to make a pair of tongs today. and helped with live demonstration today, and doing one tomorrow for art show. have to keep craft alive!
Thanks! Interesting, never seen that kind of "mallet headed" chisels. Do you know why they look like this? I assume you can hit them with a greater degree of "non-accuracy" so to speak. Don't need a bang on square strike?
I love your videos that turn out to be cases of, "I showed you how I made that tool so I could show you how I made this tool." Fantastic stuff!
My Dad had a fold-out yardstick like the one this blacksmith uses. I haven’t seen one like that in a long time. Brings back good memories of my Dad ❤️
You made a tool, to make a tool, to make a part for a tool, utilizing another tool, and I enjoyed every minute of it!
He he... thanks!
You TRULY are among the very best channels for Blacksmithing my Friend!!!
You are a man's man who likes things done the proper way. I did my lathe the same as you a few years ago. Great video.
mark
Thanks! That's great.
Love the simple workshop noises and lack of poxy background music. Keep up the good work.
Again as always, elegance, beauty in functionality … such a pleaure to watch. You set standards that ought to inspire all blacksmiths. I thank you

Thank you James! Yes, I believe that was the key for many blacksmiths back in the days.

Thanks!
Making a tool, to make another tool, to be used as part of another tool, to make something else. I love it! I wish I had that skill set.
Tools are a contagion.
Great video. No time wasted on grandstanding endless gabbing, as most videos do. Your actions send the message, "This is how stuff gets done." very good
Thank you Kevin!
Can't get better then your channel! Thank you!!..great editing...great camera angles...and great talents!

Every Citizen should have these abilities and more! specialization is for Bugs!
Paulo Monti Don't forget his actual job in life like computer graphics! Great video once again Torbjörn.

You are so talented, blacksmith, woodworker, cinematographer and who knows what else. Driven by desire and commitment. Thanks for shring
Thanks!!
Just made my first ball and that's what I need in near future....I will be the hat hook hero.
Thanks
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I find your work inspiring.
Watching your work process is much better than being in a relaxation session ..!
really like how you add the great looking sceanary into your videos. so peaceful. very nice work.
These help a lot with anxiety bro!!! Respect and Thanks!!!
Ohhh you made my day, just came in from forging a round ball wall hook for clothes, and then I saw you put this video up....you never cease to amaze me with your talents.....so good. That swage worked out fabulous.
:) Great! Thanks. Sure it's a bit overkill for forging two handles... but it's fun to try new things. I'm sure I'll get more use from it.
Fantastic work! I paid $160 for a forge last week, along with a bunch of coal to use as fuel. I've already made a hive tool out of an old file to use in my top bar hive. It's very basic, but at least I got to get some steel hot and bang away at it with the hammer. Your videos are inspirational. Thanks.
Thank you! Sounds great!
Nice and useful blacksmithing tool. A peaceful place.
Just when I think I see what it's for you go and make something else with it. Thank you so much for producing such great video.
Thank you !
Best game of ‘can you guess what it is yet?’ ever. Always enjoy these vids. That paint looks good. Better then the watery rubbish we get here in the U.K. now.
Thanks!! Yes, this paint is the old style, smelly stuff...

Thank you Mike. I love that short story.
Dude, I totally get it!!! Respect bro, you totally make your own toys!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼😂😂😂 Should have seen that earlier!!!
Landscape are beautiful at your place. Nice work, as usual !
That's nice to make something by our hands. We do not care for time or money, because we do not do it for living. We are doing it for love.

These handles turned out so well! Always a pleasure to watch you videos. Their quality seem to improve again and again ;-) thanks!
15 minutes and I honestly learned a great deal.
Thank you for sharing.
Cool. Thanks
There's a certain *irony* in 'dirtying' the surface of the perfect ball, arc welded onto a rod, on the belt sander so that the surfaces of swaged pieces eventually have an 'authentic' look.
Great work as always! Your attention to detail is outstanding and I love the practicality of many of your projects
A very useful tool and well made too, every tool in your workshop that is missing a handle will soon have a new one made for it now. Regards from your Aussie mate.
Ya good with metal. Wood. Plants. Computers. I mean this is rare combo. May Allah bless ya more
i can't belive that the beast youtube blacksmith has not done yet a Ram's head , it would be great if were something like ram's head bottle opener.
I love your videos, i learn a lot with them :) greetings from Mexico, master .
:) Thanks!
Hi torbjörn, I'm Brazilian and I very like your channel, every day I watch yours videos , good work.
Thank you so much!
His work always looks so easy, think I’ll try it. 🤔😂😂🤣🤣😁
Very nice... I always wondered how these handles are made... expected that they come out of turning shops but obvious forging is older than turning. Thumbs up.
Well, this is one way of making them... there are probably many better ways. Many were most certainly cast
that is so cool!and now you have a custom made wrench for your lathe!
I really enjoy the complete story contained in your videos. In this case, I had a very well-rounded experience 😅 from start to finish.
Thanks!!
You have a Fort?! And big birds that walk on water?? How satisfying was that Torbjörn?! Making tools to make tools!
Yea, spent an afternoon tossing up stones... easy peasy japanesey. He he, even I can walk on water, you just have to freeze it :)
Very cool tool! Kept me wondering until the very end! Thank-you for all the great videos. I love that you take a break to appreciate nature, it creates a nice balance. Kudos for your consistent use of safety gear - you take the time to work safely and protect your health. I know Sweden has its share of problems just like the rest of the world, but watching this is a pleasant respite from the political and social chaos here in the United States.
Thank you Johnny!
Nothing better than making something you’ll use to make something else.
Making tools to make tools to make other things. My kind of video, awesome!
Hi Torbjörn, great video! Love how you make tools that are for using around the house. No crazy swords 👍 keep up the good work! Greetings from the Netherlands
Thank you Jojo!!
I want to make a kind of chisel on a long stick to cut small branches from the trees, any ideas maybe?
I think you're thinking of an axe dude. Or maybe a pole saw
No,I am thinking that a axe is to rough and a saw also. Making a tree look nice and not cutting a tree down. Like bonsai but than a bigger tree. I want to know how to make that chisel not how to cut the branches.
ruclips.net/video/rffkcgs0CS8/видео.html maybe something like this will get the job done, its still a axe but a smal one groetjes vanuit limburg
Elegance in simplicity. Thanks for sharing, as always.
Gooood ! And very quiet place, that landscape and the geese traveling remember me "Nils Holgersson", Hehehe ! Thanks for sharing !
Cool. Interesting that you know about Nils!
Nice video, Torbjörn.
Not bad your tool, that has become really good.
Such "gags" were always used on machines as "on and off, switch".
Smile, as a Wood turner, you're doing good.
Thank you Günter!
very good you did a great job and the castle is very beautiful !!!!!
Greetings from Houston, Texas! Great stuff. Thanks for sharing!
I find your videos relaxing and mesmerizing! Amazing skills!
Most excellent. I always learn something from you . Thank you!
I do enjoy your videos always informative and relaxing for some reason, no distractions keep up the good work ;)
I adore the nature intermissions :)
Nice!
I was wondering how did they manage do forge the round back of the walker revolver ,paterson and so on..I would try to do that.
You are wonderful son, husband, father, blacksmith and artist... As far as I can see at videos ^.^
Thank you!
I love a good shop-made handle. Also reminds me how much I miss turning, I did some many years ago at school but I've never had a lathe at home. One day.

That's Good Example of Working Safely. Your the man...
That prove again that with blacksmithing we can do anything! i'm in my first year of ironwork art!
Ha ha, almost! :) Cool
I love the way to build tools and I think that you are good at machining. I also make pieces and for this I recognize your work. Angel from Spain
Вам спасибо! Не важно что сделано, важно как. Снимайте ещё! Успехов мастер.
Väldigt snyggt!! Det är alltid ett helvete när man måste leta efter verktyg bara för att flytta nått på svarven
Tack! Ja, jag köpte denna svarven billigt i lite halvrisigt skick så det fattades en del saker. Kul att få ordning på den.
Ja det är helt klart värt att lägga lite tid på dom gamla gjutjärns svarvarna, dom håller en evighet om dom bara får lite kärlek
props from sydney australia, you make great stuff man
Awesome. I loved this video. I love your videos as a general rule. 😊
Been watching you for a couple years and could never think who you reminded me of..
Finally, I figured it out..
Agent 47 is a blacksmith!!😁🤣
Ha ha, ok
Outstanding job you did torb another great vid to watch !
As always, a truly enjoyable video. Thanks!
Another great build Torbjörn! Enjoyed the sequencing to get to the finish line and didn't get you were building 2 from one billet...got me. ;-) Man your lathe skills are like everything else you do...a natural, with practice of course. Thank you Sir! Love the interlude of geese and Kronoberg Castle, nice!
Thanks!! I have a lot of practice to do on the lathe. Especially the business of switching hands...
Really enjoyed that one Tor! 👍
Great to see you using the skew chisel. They take a bit of practice but are so good to use. Most RUclips turning videos are scraper from start to finish. Real turning should use the cutting edge of the correct chisel for the job, resulting in a great surface finish.
Thanks! Yes, no scraping for me.
Amazingly beautiful ! ... Work of art ! ... I realy liked ...
More of everything. More, more, more, more, more. Haha, awesome as usual. Thanks for sharing TÅ.
Ha ha, thank you Glen!
Muito profissionalismo, competência, produção impecável na fundição, usinagem, marcenaria, vídeo, editoração excelentes! Parabéns! Meus respeitos.

Ha ha, bizarre? :) Thanks
That play fort in the backyard you built for the children looks like it can use a few cannons too.☺
Yes, I have to work on that. :)
Congratulations ! work and nature, superb!

Thats an exellent tool. also good for making mallet headed stonework chisels....to the maistro.....bravo.
Thanks! Interesting, never seen that kind of "mallet headed" chisels. Do you know why they look like this? I assume you can hit them with a greater degree of "non-accuracy" so to speak. Don't need a bang on square strike?
I love you're power hacksaw.they are all gone in the U.S.
