HEY! Thanks for watching! Check out Black Beard Project's video on how he cast the covers ruclips.net/video/DH74_GkI1Wc/видео.html !😍
Can't believe how heavy this tome is, it's truly something else... Anyway - hope you are staying safe and that you liked the vid (and maybe give it a thumbs up if you enjoyed it)! :D
Lol can i hold it?
So excited to see how this bad boy turns out!! All your books are incredible but metal covers takes it to a whole new level of epic!! 💖💖💖
Oh my god tell me why I was literally just wondering when you would post your next book project get outta my heeaaaaadd
Hay can you make a shadow and light book next
Like if you want the to happen
👇
That moment when you're up at 3am ready to go to sleep. Then Nerdforge releases a video and you're like: Ahh shiet, here we go again
A wizard should always carry this around. When they run out of slots, they can use their spellbook as a weapon for 1d4 bludgeoning damage.
Only 1d4?
@@riuphane They're a wizard, not a barbarian
Minimum strength 17
Lol my transmutation wizard/alchemist artificer has str 18,dex 10, intel 18, wis 13, cha of 6
This things gotta be 1d6, at LEAST
"I am going to treat you like my firstborn child" , starts carving and etching ^^
I wouldn't wanna be her firstborn child x)
LMAO!
@@anakomkl938 I would! Imagine growing up with all these crazy creations around you, and the whole RUclips channel of your super popular mom haha
Making him perfect
And here is my firstborn so let's carve him
"To all the metalworkers out there, I respect your grind"
*realizes the joke she just made*
"Yep, I'm committing"
8:56 for those who wants to just hear it.
You know what? This should be the start of a new book series, magical tomes of different races.
YES. Absolutely! That'd be so awesome!This comment needs more likes!
You mean like magical tomes of dwarfs, wizards, elfs, etc? Cause that sounds really cool!
A cover made from beautifully oiled oak for the wood-elves!
imagine bringing that book to class to take notes love it!
Imagine the sound, you walk in and slam it down like you mean business 😂
lmao!
How-
How did-
How did you get the picture there-
@II QuietRiot II wait, I have to know, does that smell ever change; Similarly how you can smell bad coffee?
I would think that the coffee would continue to decompose, and because coffee has NH3 in its composition it could release ammonia making a terrible smell later. Although that does leave the possibility that you air-dried your paper under the sun where the UV could kill the bacteria that form as the coffee spoils.

Dude this girl literally does magic with her hands. I think you're very talented and this channel is bloody underrated
Completely agree! Grossly underrated!
@@awefulwaffle5628 Yes!
could use some magic on that face
Nearly 1 Million subs is underrated now..
@@ddssrr1614 No, no, I mean that she creates a lot of cool stuff and still hasn't reached a million subs.
I am a metall worker and the first 10 weeks of my training were just "How to grind a block of alumium properly" xD
So i can understand your pain! :D But this book is soooo great, good work!
"Shut up and take my money". Would pay anything for these books. You're out of this world, I'm in love.
bound in metal,
fire and steel,
tome of dwarves,
and blood forged seal.
Thank you very much for this lovely post which I will, without doubt, use on my friends to scare them
🤝
Nice poem thing :D
It really does seem like a tome for Dwarves O_O Thank you for this little poem
love this
Girl you are making me to believe that magical world is real ...and it's heartwarming
Awesome Collab. That book is a basically a piece of armour!
You two have inspired me so much. I made my own leather bound tome... It took two months and it looks like trash compared to yours but the sheer fact that I can say I made a while ass BOOK is still surreal to me. I wouldn't have even attempted something like this if it wasn't for your videos!❤️
well I painted my brand new shoes because they looked so boring..I would not have done that if I didn't know Martina who always try something new, which she has never tried before..she is very inspiring
looks like thors text book when he was in middle school lol
_Flora colossi_ is offered as an elective in Asgardian schools, and this is the textbook Thor used.
I feel like Thor's school books would have a lot more dents in it. It's probably Loki's and has a permanent renewal spell on it...
@Ian Adam thanx. I got a million of 'em.
I think we can all easily agree that this is gonna be completely epic, as usual 🖤💀
Yes
Nobody can pay me enough to argue with you on that.😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
You actually give me the want to do things like this so, thank you. The book is badass
👏 book👏 made👏 from 👏GLASS👏
👏GLASS👏 BOOK👏
Very "solid" project! I once saw a full metal binding in on of our libraries here that had a chain mail type of construction made out of silver-copper alloy to keep the spine flexible. The tragic thing was that somebody had left the book open without closing the clasps and the parchment inside swelled too much for it to be ever closed again.
I have no practical experience but doesn't the parchment shrink to its original dimensions if you get it good and dry? Or is there a cracking hazard?
@@brocktechnology The problem was mainly the wrinkling, that's where the swelling of the book came from. Parchment achieves its smoothness by drying under a lot of tension and then cut to size. It doesn't have the property of paper to just wet it again, press it and dry it. When it's already in book format, with writing, illuminations and so on, it's rather hard to hook it onto a frame and tension it again to become smooth. It has to keep pressed under all times, hence the clasps on the book.
As the conservators told me, there was always the option to fit it into a new binding, constructed with the change of proportions in mind, though it was a shame it would never fit again in its original beautiful binding.
@@Stopan Very interesting, thank you for taking the time.
@@Stopan thats very useful and interesting info to read thanks
You are- * chefs kiss *
The tome is- * chefs kiss *
This whole channel is- * chefs kiss *
I will never stop fangirling over you 😂💜💜💜 amazing job i love it
Lol such a simp
@@jayde8797 guilty 🥴😂😂
@@katiebellmichelle Don’t worry, I am a simp too. Not for this channel, others.
You should make the Charmed book of Shadows! That show was amazing!
OMG YESS!!! I LOVE CHARMED!!!
Omg yes! That would be so cool to see Martina make that book!
YESSSS
That would be so cool, she should totally do that 😁
The original not the cringy remake right?
That turned out amazing! It almost looks as though it could be an ancient dwarven tome with a cover forged from mithril.
Can I just say thank you? And I mean this sincerely. I've been trying to write a novel and I've written every thing down on notebook paper or in a google doc. But it has quickly become disorganized and messy. I will totally be using that website from now on. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
You should also look into Plot Factory
That’s so stunning when you said you were adding gems I didn’t expect Howlite but it’s gives it such a nice finish it kept it clean looking
Thank you for all you do with these videos, i watch them a lot when im fighting depression/anxiety issues and even re-watch the older vids a lot. Both of you are wholesome and fun and full of positive energy and great content that is chill and relaxing to watch and makes dark days a little brighter UwU Once more, thank you for all you do!
OK by far one of the BEST BOOKS YOU'VE EVER MADE Martina!! WOW doesn't even cover how awesome this turned out - and those final shots... ARGH! PERFECTLY EPIC!!!!!! Please do more book crafting such as this! Imagine if you did a gold book!!! Or a series of a Gold, Silver and Bronze book!! Please consider the idea of doing a book for each main crystal too such as sapphire, emerald, ruby, topaz, amethyst (each colour of the rainbow as crystal books would be rather interesting to see your design of them!
I was about to fall asleep for the night but priorities
Yaaass me
This is me whenever a new video comes out
damn never knew i need a book that could be a weapon at the same time
I can’t believe I’ve only just discovered your channel, I am OBSESSED and you are so talented !! 😍
Welcome!!
RUclips needs an "Awesome" button because a simple "thumbs up" is nowhere near enough for this one!
Or for any of their videos
I like the way you think, Chris Rose 👍
Yes! I could imagine this in an abandoned dwarven chapel, surrounded by the bones of the ancient priests! Such an awesome job!
Have you ever thought about filling your books with things following their themes? Like, painting a page in the water tome to look like a puddle, or pressing leaves into the forest tome, or doodling burning objects in your fire tome.
I know this comment wasn’t for me (a random joe), but your question was similar to what I was thinking. My husband taught my younger sister photography, and she wants a book to put them all in. She wants a cool portfolio but not a scrapbook. She also draws cartoon strips. I was going to start making her these tomes, and she can fill each one with photos that follow with the theme of the tome itself. Unique, clean pages, whimsical enough to suit her arty nature, and her own individual incentive to keep pursuing photography.
I've watched your videos for a year and I noticed something this time I never had seen before...I'm just even more amazed by your dexterity now.
This has to be some kind of dwarfen user manual.
"How to forge 101"
I'm doing a book with black watercolor paper and a wooden cover. Thank you for being inspiring XO
I love this! It makes me think it's something for Thorin Oakenshield's memoirs ❤️
That was awesome. As always you take us on a journey of creativity and wonder, diving into the realm of possibilities and imagination. Keep it up, you guys are great. Oh and any chance you can get Honz on more of your projects? You guys work so well together and with you and him, projects go from awesome to beyond.
This is my favorite one so far. Love your videos so inspiring. Ive was in hospital since mid october. Had 3 surgeries to get rid of an infection that was literally putting me on my death bed. Im cut deep from between groin and let all the way up to my hip. Got out around first week of november. My 30th birthday was spent you guest in hospital. But watching your vids really kept me inspired on what i want to do once im all better.
Sooo, is someone here who still doubts that magicians exist?
PS: Stunning Work Martina, as always! 😲😍
Found you from Black Beard's cover build vid. Love it. So many awesome projects!
Linked from Blackbeards channel. WOW, Super impressed, the planning, the hours of work, beautiful piece. presentation at the end was spot on as well. Now i have Another channel to catch up on. wonderful....
This book can be a weapon, it's the most amazing thing I ever laid my eyes upon
Ya this book is amazing
Hand write it full of metal songs. You know...metal covers in the book with metal covers...
Ba-dumm-tiss.
*cricket chirping...
Right, ok, i see...i'll just be seeing myself out then.
Boo!
(I'm kidding, your comment made me laugh)
Would this be...te legendary book of heavy metal? ruclips.net/video/l_WMHg8c_4I/видео.html
Viking Metal =)
Brutal
No come baaaccckk
It looks awesome! Time to write some secrets of Moria there.
Okay I love the project but that is seriously the coolest sponsor I’ve ever seen.
I remember being on a D&D server with a 7ft, warforged wizard who had what was basically this book. Gold inlay for writing, metal pages, inch thick covers of pure steel, and has straps to lug it around like a backpack since it was so damn heavy. The idea was that it was basically invincible and wouldn't break.
My favorite part was when my gnome wizard interacted with him, and compared spellbound. I had a paper field guide that fit in my pocket because it was convenient (which for a gnome, might as well be a business card holder). The warforged would slam his "book" on the ground, and my gnome could've used it as a stage it was so big.
Now this is not only a book it is a secret weapon to knock some annoying classmates off, no but seriously this is insane😍
Now stay safe everyone 😊
Edit: the pink goodie goes so well with ur hair 😍
A metal book?! That’s something you don’t see every day.
this is honestly one of the best projects you guys have done!
I love how good it ended up looking
*I want it*
I started watching your channel over a year ago, maybe close to 2 years, when you were uploading a bunch of hand-bound tome videos. I'd never watched any video that was anything like those ones, which instantly hooked me onto this channel. I then fell in love with yours and Hansi's personalities and I've watched every video since.
This video and your pure enthusiasm really feels nostalgic and is really helping me get through some rough times. Thank you so much Martina and Hansi for being some of the coolest content creators on the web.
Thank you so much for watching our videos
If you setup a P.O. Box I guarantee you would get more chocolate then you would know what to do with
They have one...
Beautiful work and tremendous skill. Black Beard sent me over and I am very glad he did. You have a great talent in a field that is almost become extinct. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
Thank you 🙏☺️
every time they post a video I think "they can't ever top this" and then they DO
Just adore you and your channel. My house is filling up with your projects. Even a camper van conversion. X
I'm still so surprised and excited that you featured me in your inta story. Your new merch is amazing. I really enjoy watching your content and appreciate your work.

The inverse would have looked really nice as well.
I like that’s there so much of the mirror finish visible here.
It you etched just the thin lines and the rest was shiny, it would be next level.
Omg this is so amazing. I want one so bad. I’m writing a book and I would love to write it in something like this.
man im always so impressed, youre such an incredible artist... just super glad you guys are continuing to just do what you do and turning out such incredible beauty ! keep inspiring i'm so glad i am subscribed!
and this is why im proud to support you. YOu are soo FREAKEN creative and talented
this reminds my of the metal book, from the mortal engines book series!
That is magnificent! Looks like what I imagine when Gimli is reading from the book in Balin's tomb!
Me to Fiancé: LOOK NERDFORGE!!!
Fiancé: Let me know how cool it is
me: YOU SHOULD ALREADY KNOW HOW COOL IT IS!!!!!
lovely work as always!!!!!!!!
I never get tired of hearing SKJERA BAGERA! sounds way more bad ass than English.
@Florencia Aurelia It's Norwegian, but those are not actual words, it's from the Jungle Book or something and for some reason people in the nineties started using it as "what's up", I don't know. "Hva skjer a?" is asking what's going on and that's shortened to "skjera" which sounds like Shere (Khan) from The Jungle Book, then Bagereea from The Jungle Book. Then you can answer with "ingenting tingeling" which means "nothing" plus Tinkerbell from Peter Pan. Why? Well, nobody knows.
@@daniel4647 Thanks for the explanation. Being Swedish i assumed I should understand what it means, but nope. Now I will understand and hear what you are saying.
I like to think it is really a secret warning to the haters:
"ShutUpOrGetOut"
😄
I'm going to try it on my Norwegian husband. Then I will give the explanation. Lol
Oh i just thought it was some kind of seasure turetes thing 😅
Amazing! This is the 3rd NerdForge video I've watched. I have about 25 pages of a script for a film and have been stuck for over a year on it. Your videos have inspired me to start writing again and I realized that I need to create a "world" for the setting for the film in order to proceed. I watch this video and you're advertising world building software. Keep up the good work!!!
This is really such a blessing to spend all your time with doing what you love! Imagine waking up and being pumped about you project for the next couple days. Sadly I am really afraid to just completely drop everything, dip into my interests and try make a living out of my hobbies...plus I think you need a little bit of luck next to your hard work to actually make it.
I feel like we should be expecting a fantasy-style wizard’s bookcase/library build someday
I just finished making my first book and then this pops into my recommended. Time spend my whole week on a project im not ready for.
That was incredible!!! You are insanely talented!!! Also, the round side of the hammer works better for riveting, but both sides get the job done. I wish I had your ingenuity, I would love to have a couple of these around the house!!!
I'mma need one of these as my notebook for my forge work and woodworking techniques.
A friend recommended your videos to me and it really was what I needed right now. Thank you for kicking my anxiety and depression to the curb for a few hours. Hej hej från Sverige!
Ahhh... The great book of grudges, Thorgrim Grudgebearer would be pleased to have it.
I love how much work and care you put into each video/creation
This is absolutely gorgeous! The amount of you both have put into it is mind blowing. Thank you so much for the inspiration. Love from Alaska.
AWOOGA
I want to be as good at engineering and building like her. She is such a successful person.
Something useful for projects like this (etching) and loads of other projects is a vinyl cutter like silhouette cameo or cricut. Then you can easily cut out vinyl decals for masking. More high end ones can even cut leather :)
This is an absolutely incredible work of art. Thank you so much for sharing this with us all!
I just signed up for the World Anvil, literally the coolest thing ever. When you said you were doing an add I thought "noooo pls no adds." I DO NOT regret watching through that one XD
Whaaaaaat?? My fellow italian Black beard projects!! Omg! When i saw the italian stuff i immediately tought of him but i said "na, his projects are usually a bit different from this" .. Awesome collaboration :) now back to see the video (I stopped to comment after a minute 😂)
Amazing tome. Best of yours so far, and the others were awesome as well. Also, love your energy.
Relatively new to this channel but your videos are insanely awesome. Absolutely love your enthusiasm and the awesome content you guys make.
You are a bloody amazing master craftsmen!
SO COOL!!! 😍🤩😃
...can you make another out of bronze? 🤔😁
This is so cool!!! And I love Black Beard Projects! 🖤 He makes such cool stuff. Two very talented channels and I think it's awesome how you worked together to make this magnificent project!
Hi! Some time ago I tested a few techniques to etch aluminium and I described the one that worked best for me in my notes. I laminated photoresist onto a roughed up aluminium surface for masking as I would do for electronic PCBs, but nail polish works well. I had some failed attempts with electrical tape, the mordant finds its way under it at some point, especially if you etch deep. For the mordant I used 1 tea spoon table salt and 1/2 tea spoon citric acid for each 20mL of water. The aluminium piece is completely submerged into the mordant and attached to the positive electrode of a generator. A sacrificial copper object is connected to the negative electrode and submerged as well. Then 45 to 50 minutes under 1.7A current for a .5-ish mm depth (I assume this would vary depending on your application, etching depth is a somewhat linear function of time with this technique). Citric acid is used to neutralize the sodium hydroxide that forms during the electrolysis, which would otherwise attack the surface in a non controllable fashion (and also ruin the photoresist).
Hope this helps if you intend to try this again at some point!
Always a pleasure watching you!
Skjera Bagera. Awesome project Martina. I was astonished how heavy the finished book is since the cover is aluminium. Makes also some astonishing effect on the book shelf. I would like to see a lantern made with that design. I would use blue or purple paper or fabric to cover all the nooks and crannies from the inside in order to let the light shine through.
Oh my god this book! it’s so beautiful 😍❤️ you really inspire me at art stuff and "crafting" (sorry for my english 🙈)
and btw I may get your jacket as a Christmas present :3
This is one of the most incredible things you have ever made!!
Love it, you're so talented. Painting, making books, whatever idea you come up with is always amazing.
This is absolutely amazing! One day it would be awesome to do this for my homebrew world bible. Words can't do this project enough justice.
Hi, a few days ago your video appeared in my Playlist and I Don t know why but I was really happy...
You do great things
Kisses from Rome
This looks so freakin cool! 😍
For the masking for the etch... This is where a vinyl cutter would have been nice. Like the laser cutter, it could cut out the pattern you want on sticky sided vinyl.
Apply like a sticker and no hobby knife required.
The way her face lights up before opening the package SO CUTE! 🥺🙂☺️
As someone with braces, I feel sorry for you right now.
why?
That's interesting. I'm on my second year with them, just had two more teeth removed taking my total teeth extracted for the process to 13, my mouths in constant pain with the alien feeling of metal in my mouth.
@J Fz You're lucky, I literally spent two weeks with a swollen jaw, living off Panadol and codeine. It was a full on surgery.
bruh, that is one THICCCCCC book!
This is freaking incredible. Amazing work you guys!
I am so amazed at how open you are to new mediums and methods. You are such an inspiration!
now, let's have a look at the final result! *epic climax, watchers are excited to finally see the result, everyone is on their toes*
ad: tHe nEw mAcbOoK aIR
My reaction to every step: “wow that’s beautiful!” Even when it was covered by the masking tape. You carving out the pattern... 🤯 Woman! What are you made of?? 😳
Outstanding job as always. I have to admire your dedication. Possibly need to look into a vinyl cutter to create accurate masks for your etching in the future.
I've been watching your stuff lately and I have to say your books are my favs. This one just tops it. Great work.
