- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- In this video, I make a Steel Knot Metal Handle which is an Industrial Style Metal Handle, bending rebar to make the knot. I love the look of industrial furniture and all the decor that comes with it, and this rebar handle has the look I like. I hope you enjoy my video of the project, it was a lot of fun to make.
The main tools used, are a MIG welder, angle grinder, drill, and bench vise.
The Rebar in the handle is 7mm, the wide flat bar is 50mm wide, 250mm long, and 3mm thick, the smaller flat bar is 32mm wide, 207mm long, and 6mm thick, and the bolts are 25mm across the head and 50mm long, the shaft of the bolt is 16mm.
Tools / Supplies, I often use are.

Always use all the correct safety gear, and use your tools safely, I am not a good role model for this.
Hope you found something of use in my video or at least found it entertaining.

Note: When you bend metal/rebar, you naturally weaken it. Bending it cold will normally cause fine cracks, and it may even break if you put enough strain on the rebar or bend it in the same place too many times. Do not rely on cold-bent steel/rebar to support a load.
Finally someone that knows to show the finished product right up front in the video to generate interest in the video.
It's astounding how many videos I have to fast forward thru just to see what the heck is getting made.
Give this guy an Academy Award for doing his video the right way. He shows the door handle at the beginning!!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Brilliant. And it a pleasure to finally see someone that actually knows the correct use of a file ,one way stroke .
Thank you very much.

His high school metalwork teacher must have missed a few things though. Keep your work low in the vice to be more efficient and avoid vibration chatter and never use a file not fitted with a handle. Still, a nice end product. A cheap 4 speed Ryobi pedestal drill from Bunnings would help. I really like your good old Aussie metal work bench.
Haha, I thought the exact same thing. Was taught by a machinist when I was in grade school.
добродушный,жизнерадостный и простой человек,очень приятен
Большое спасибо за очень хороший комментарий.
красота, без всяких я придумал, как без этого жить... взял метал - сделал красоту, лайк.
Большое спасибо, я ценю ваш комментарий.
Молодец мужик.Приятно было смотреть .Руки золотые 👍👍👍🇦🇿🇹🇷
всегда приятно видеть ,что человек,что то умеет делать своими руками!!!
Большое спасибо, я ценю ваш комментарий.
Even the birds were cheering when you got the pieces together! I like how you did everything without big, fancy tools. Great video, thanks.
Thanks so much, I am glad you liked it, thank you for your comment.
That's the most beautiful handle I've ever seen. It's a real pleasure to see a true craftsman at work. I've never worked with metal or welded anything in my life but watching that has given me the urge to try it. Thanks for posting Gavin, excellent job mate 👍
Thank you very much for your awesome comment, I greatly appreciate it.
I used to be a rodbuster (reinforcing ironworker) and I've tied it in nuclear power plants to skyscrapers. Parking decks to bridges. Footings to columns. Bank vaults to foundation walls. From #2 to #18 rebar. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think to do something like this. Outstanding work mate.👍Just goes to show your never too old to learn something new. 🤯
Thank you very much I am glad you liked it, and especially from a rodbuster. Thanks mate.
You get very good things from ordinary rebar scraps, handmade work is appreciated now.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it.
Brilliant idea. I think I'll have a go at that and maybe add semicircles with short legs on at the back of each bolt to make the bar look like endless loops passing through the bolts. Your ideas are inspiring. I never watch one of your video's and fail to come away better educated and with a head full of potential projects. Thank you and regards from Scotland.
Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it. Greetings from Australia.
Sir, you are a person with an excellent perspective and development of your work. My respect and admiration.
Thank you very much!

Well I was trying to watch the football game till I strolled across the your site and after 4 videos and now this one I couldn’t tell ya the score or who’s even playing! Love the videos and now a dedicated follower Love your work ! 🙋🏻♂️👏👏👏
Lubię te rustykalne dodatki i cieszę się ze wracają do mody.Dobra robota Gavin👍🏿
Dziękuję bardzo, cieszę się, że Ci się podobało. Lubimy to samo, dziękujemy za komentarz.
Your work is very impressive.
About 3 years ago I had need for handles like this, for a project I had in mind.
For various personal reasons, since then I've had no enthusiasm to be creative.
You've inspired me to get back into it.
Thank you.
Thank you very much True Aussie, I am glad you liked it. I wish you the best for your projects.
I been a fabricator for many years. you got skills I did tons of production work. It takes a true craftsman to make thinks form basic tools without punches and presses mills and torches. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful work.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it and I appreciate your comment.
I ve admire your masterpiece great job, I have learn something considering the fact that I was struggling with a thinner piece of metal now I know how to straing it up beautiful well done, thank you MASTER
Thank you very much I am glad you found something useful in my video. Thank you for your comment.
Inspirational, great to see someone making something like this without having to use expensive tools. Even a basic welder can be purchased fairly cheaply these days. I have a feeling some of these will be adorning my property soon
Thank you very much, you have nailed my thoughts on lots of expensive gear, there are other ways, I am glad you liked my video, I really appreciate your comment.
From start to finish, what was your time?
As us Aussie Blackfulla's say: "Deadly!"
Awesome craftsmanship Sir, got me inspired and my creative juices flowing, Cheers mate!
Thank you! Cheers mate.
40 years as a sheet metal worker. You did a very good job sir.

@@GavinClarkdiy Para los tiempos que vivimos alrededor del planeta, una vez mas constato que las soluciones a nuestros problema, están mas cerca de la solución, un ejemplo de voluntad y generosidad es el nuestro, con barreras idiomáticas aun así nos acercamos y colaboramos. te insto a seguir esa senda ya que los paises del tercer mundo, sumidos en nuestra pobreza y explotación mercantil. abrazamos la generosidad de unos pocos.

You have a wonderful talent you are playing with those bars like you do and you never think that it is possible to do it that way this is my first time watching someone bedding something and no torch just your hands and your imagination you are a genius mister and you made it look so perfect and I wish I could have a handle like that on a door what a beauty and sir you have a talent to make those things happen and it works and they are just beautiful and strong very smart man and I’m sure that you have many things that is amazing and simple to do when you use your head instead of a torch or any kind of heat that is amazing to watch thanks you for the video
Thank you, I very much appreciate your comment.
Lord you are an iron master. Here in Portugal there are also many masters working on iron, but I have never seen any piece made like this. I'm just jealous of not having one to put in my vacation home. Thank you for showing people this beautiful work of art
Thank you very much, I really appreciate your comment.
Excelente trabajo!!
Un placer observar paso a paso, y la pieza final una obra de arte.

Some heat always makes thing easier for sure. This was a great build. I learned a lot. Thank you. And BTW- I like the big vise. Looks like a beast.
Thank's very much, I am glad you liked it. Yes lots easier with a bit of heat, I like to do it cold with the gentle persuasion of my hammer. I love my vise too, an awesome chunk of steel. Thank you for your comment.
What beautiful work. It was a pleasure watching you turn some ordinary items into something so spectacular. Thanks for sharing.

Muchas gracias por sus enseñanzas desde Bogotá colombia viendo tus magníficos videos y de nuevo muchas gracias
I have seen a few videos already, incredible how well it looks and how well you work, congratulations, but for my taste the second plate, the one with the holes to fix it to the door, you could do without it and make the holes in the What has the handle for my taste is better, more aesthetic, but we must recognize that your works are incredible and they are a gift to see them, a greeting
Thank you very much, I am glad you like my work. We all have different tastes in what we like, I also like it the way you described with just the one plate, Thank you for your comment.
Você passa algum tipo de verniz pra não enferruja ❓
Belo trabalho 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Muito obrigado, fico feliz que tenha gostado. Decidi não comentar os acabamentos, pois são tantas as respostas e dúvidas. Quanto ao clima em que você está, é de dentro para fora, muita chuva, gelo, você quer a longo prazo e raramente toca, ou uma cera com um pano todo ano. É por isso que não tenho opinião
I’m in the process of making a gate, I think I’ve seen the handle that I want to put on, hope you don’t mind me copying this, great video, subscribed.
No problem at all, copy what you like, glad you liked it, welcome to the channel.

I've made a bowline outa 7mm same but used heat mainly because it was set up and my vice is not on a solid enough bench at the time.
Great work fella very inspiring

Thats great fella, 👍🏻 so many people think they need a gas forge or something to manipulate things like mild steel into cracking usable objects like that.

I don't get the dislikes on such an amazing work..
Thank you very much. Everyone likes different things, all is good, thank you for your comment.
I congratulate you !! It is admirable. Work the metal as if it were a rope !!!

That’s beautiful real beautiful
Thank you very much.
A million views . What can I say?
Great idea, skillful execution.
A coupla drops of oil on the barrel of your vice will stop the chatter.
Fantastic piece of old boiler room floor plate for your bench. After you've walked into that corner once you wont do it a second time , Ouch.
Hope there are no grandkids around.
I like how your workbench is fixed firmly to the floor and wall. Nice and solid.
Good looking workshirt.
I think I have the same number of raucus birds in my yard too. Them and the wattle birds and the ravens sure kick up a storm.
Thank you very much. I will give my vice a bit of a service soon, yes my bench is old and very heavy, not at all flat on the top either, it is not bolted down or to the wall it is just heavy and solid. I don't mind the birds, but their noise does sound louder on the video. Thank you for your comment.
A real masterpiece by a real craftsman .
Excellent filming.

Thank you very much, I wish you the best for your project.
au - The big Vices we broke using in spring factory bending steel rods :)
We got them to build a Decent welded 1/2" plate vice - Crap cast snapped easy it worked then they Sold many after that :)
The on I am using has taken quite a beating over the years, so I have my fingers crossed I will never be doing a "This is how you repair a broken vice" video. thank you for your comment.
Checkered plate would also be a nice material. Nicely done👍
