Mr Ed, I'm almost speechless,, Those are such Great ideas! And to go over them and work with them to show us what they do!! This is One of the most informative Videos On RUclips that I've seen yet. And I'm sure alot of the other Black Smiths on here would agree....! Thank you Mr Ed for your time in making this video for all of us to watch!!! GOD Bless
Thanks for posting these. I bought the videos when they were available in VHS format. This is the first I've seen them presented via digital media. These really are excellent resources.
Hi, even as an humble hobbyist blacksmith I've found your video quite usefull to learn some good general forging technics too. Power hammer make it looks so easy lol ! Thanks for sharing !!
A very well done video. I'm about to bring Dad's old hammer to my shop and I will be needing to look it over. Many thanks for your experience and sharing the info.
What a great video! Full of ideas which anybody with a power hammer will want to adapt. I'm very impressed with the recording quality, which is no small achievement in a room set up as a forge rather than an audio-visual studio. Well done!
The best video I have seen for utilising a power hammer to get the best out of what it can do! Not lucky enough to have found a little giant in OZ, they are just not around! I built my own, its a leaf spring helve hammer but very controllable and has a hundred pound or so ram so quite a beast! Looking forward to watching more!
Some stuff is better cut rolled and welded. I make sockets out of 14 ga. Two piece, welded. It's much faster than forging, and a lot less work. My Grandfather had a coal forge he used for riveting. When I was a teenager I used to pound out mild steel knives. They were crude and soft and wouldn't hold an edge. Neither my Grandfather or I knew anything about heat treatment or tempering, or what the right steel was. The sad part about that was that I had a uncle whom lived in the Chicago area, and every time he came down he brought a bunch of junk to give my grandparents. Often there were spud wrenches in the mix. What I didn't know was that with a little knowledge I could have been making real blades. So as a retired sheetmetal worker I finally learned how. It was on my bucket list. I digress. What I ment to say was that it's nice to learn new stuff. You brought new stuff and I appreciate it.
Hello Dave great show. Im from down by Elkwater Alberta i did the same thing on the drill press my hand wrapped up so fast but the drill bit broke off lucky it was only a 3/8 bit
Thank you for posting these videos! I have wanted to see them for a long time. I met Dave a few times, and saw samples of his impressive work. Could'nt afford the videos at the time they were produced, now I have.
Great video. Im slowly making the transition from hobbyist to professional. Im gonna be in the market for a power hammer soon. Probably gonna start smaller with one of the hammers that Ken at kens custom iron makes.
Dave was an Alberta guy for many years.. in the notes, you'll see that he died a few years ago. As the keeper of his videos and the caregiver during his end of life, I am delighted to have so many people accessing and learning from him.
This is a Legacy video from about 20 years ago when Dave operated as Wild Rose Forge in Peers Alberta. The video was filmed in a shop on the east side of Edmonton AB 'Front Step Forge' frontstepforge.com/. The owner there might be a worthwhile contact for you. Thanks for commenting and appreciating!

I'm so glad you found them, enjoyed them and Dave's legacy lives on.

Excuse me, how many cycles(rpm) of the motor used in the hammer, i have 3000 cycles useful?
You don’t happen to be located in Alberta?

I just found your channel. What is the name of your company? I’m in Edmonton too.

Why do they call it black smithing? You can't work the metal until it's red. Shouldn't it be called Red smithing?
Red Smith was an American sportswriter.
