From an outsider's perspective, you have a seemingly endlessly calm character. In point of fact, it is quite admirable. Having said that, I imagine that forging can be somewhat frustrating at times. I would love to see some swearing outtakes from when things did not go quite to plan :P
Happy to see you Gary. I have a friend who makes armor, he has procured a variety of dishing cups from a shipyard where they use a giant hydraulic punch to make holes in the ship parts. 4, 6, 8 and even a 10 inch dish. Perhaps if you have somewhere local to you with such equipment, or know someone who is, you may be able to find some nice cupping swages from their scrap bin.
When I was at sea we used a tool identical to your 'hot set' only we called it a 'cold set'. Used for cutting wire rope strands if we didn't have a guillotine, which often we did'nt.
Hi Gary don't won't to sound like a dick but the beginning of your video the sound was really poor , love your videos keep up the good work mate . Great to see, real craftsmanship. Regards Andy
Love your videos ,but,if you'll take a word from an OLD smith-PLEASE grind the mushroomed head down on your hot cut so one of those shards doesn't go into your hand..
Gary Huston at the start I think he meant it is comparatively more quiet than the next clip where you forge it. Otherwise another excellent video! Cheers!
Nice project Gary, glad to see you back.
Great job Gary. I'm sure the wife will love them. Thanks for sharing.
Hello Gary, I haven't seen you around here much lately. We have missed your well done videos. Keep-em-coming.
Very nice little project. Looking good both you and the pup. Hope the hand is doing better, too.
Hi Gary, Nice to watch you again doing your metal work. Great idea those candle holder's are.
As always good job.I'll do this heart on both ends of my hat hook project coming soon.
Thanks Gary
Great project, great job. missing your videos. more, more.
Glad to see you back!
Yes! Another vid from Gary! And it sounded like a new project coming, swage block stand.
I really like that one! Simple, yet elegant. Looks like you hand is working for you.

Very nice , good to see you back behind the anvil......
I made some very nice looking oil lamp holders on that concept only with a scroll for my daughter for Christmas.
cool little project. I bet they would sell well at craft shows too.
Nice Gary. Still get a kick out of the British adjectives compared to ours in the US. Keep up the videos
Gary is back!
That's good work!

Alan Hill it’s the same as a cold set but made of different material so it can cut hot rather than cold.
Thanks
Nice work. Thanks for the video.
Muy buen trabajo heres un artista. Un saludo desde españa

Молодец! Хорошо получилось.
I thought you retired ----NOPE ==== HE's BACK

Amazing job Gary, as always. Question, every handyman has its own brand of tools they swear by, what is your favorite brand of quality tools?
I don’t really have one. I like bessey for clamps but other than that I like anything that does the job.
you were tryin to explain move metal down-but couldnt think of way to tell it
Thank you so much for sharing this video! I have a question for you, is this the method you would use to also create a boat hook or a pike pole?
Not sure what they are so can’t really say!
Oh I see, it's ok, thanks for the reply :D
Hey Gary 👋🏼
Hey Gary, thanks for your usual excellent video. I hope this means your left hand is cured.
Not cured but much better.
nice
Yeah a nice 1.5 to 2.5 lb is best for most jobs.. I use a 2.4 lb. Give or take
👌👍
Liked the candle holder. I may give it a try. Love all your videos, they have helped me a ton. Thanks again.
Shawn they helped me a bunch too
That’s quite an anvi

John Hartley must be your end. It’s made with exactly the same settings as all my videos.
