I'm such a huge fan of how you don't use a bunch of music and overlapping edits in your videos, along with a constant stream of chatter and nervous laughter that just assails the senses as you watch. You let your work, and your environment, speak for itself, and the ambience that creates makes the viewer feel like they are right there in your shop. It's simply the best way to convey a channel about true craftsmanship, rather than some over-hyped TV commercial type made for "awesomeness". It's refreshing, relaxing, and worth it's weight in gold. Thanks to you, sir!
The attention to detail and the camera work and editing are second to none. The personal touch showing that Thunder Bear also has a sense of humor is what makes these videos works of art more than just a here is what I do type of video. The craft of blacksmithing is as more than beating hot metal with a hammer, it is also a full understanding of what you are working with, what you want to make and how to hit it. The thought to use the lathe was wonderful. Awesome work once again.
You do wonderful work. Thank you for not talking a lot, not exaggerating anything, and not being eccentric. Your work and occasional subtle humor is what I come here to see...and your cats. Thank you!
I half expected the note at the end the say INRI 😅 Awesome video as always! I really appreciate how quiet your workshop is when the hammer is off. It's very refreshing, the way you don't have unnecessary noise that's constantly in the background. For being a "Thunder Bear," the way you work is admirably thoughtful and precise, not loud and chaotic. Please never stop making your wonderful videos! I promise to keep watching them as often as you put them out!
I was taught to roll in seals like that with a round bar. Doesn't leave dents in the sealing surface. Old school trick from the era of leather and Oakum seals.
I love watching people fix their own tools. They've worked with them so long they have an understanding of how they're supposed to work, and can tell when even the slightest thing is off... and then they know exactly what needs to be done to fix the problems. (Even if they have to do some thinking first.) You impress me more and more with every video, Torbjörn! Thanks for sharing your work with us.
It's nice to see you keeping the old thing going. Those old forging hammers are well made. A lot better than any new one you can get for anything less than an astronomical price.
After the last RUclips video I watched on the subject power hammer maintenance, I'm still reeling from the horror. But this one was as relaxing as all your other videos. Nice to see the family pitching in as well. I knew the timing was going to be an issue after the modification so I was thrilled to see you diagnose and successfully remedy things on the first try! Great stuff Torbjörn.
I love the look of disdain you give the driver because its battery dared to die on you. Thanks for a demonstration of how to approach a problem, solve it, make a new problem that was unanticipated, work the problem, think on it, solve it and continue with making an epic nail. With no drama.
Unquestionably a man with substantial talents "and indisputably so". It is forever a delight to view your work and observe a true master share his knowledge. Peace and Love to You and Yours Sir.
For my pure enjoyment I watched this video again. You do such beautiful work but the most beautiful thing is your mind and your thinking obviously the result of wonderful parenting and teaching. You are a blessing to watch.
Id say you nailed it. BIG TIME! Thank YOU for the time and effort put in to new content. Always looking forward to a new video. Never disappointed. Hope all is well! Be safe. Be blessed!
Brother Torbjörn! Your ram slide was perhaps your greatest creation yet! In Texas was say one has “big balls” for attempting feats such as sawing and drilling dies. I am sure this phrase is universal. I was not anticipating the timing issue! Many extra points for working that out. Your life will change now that you can attach tooling to your dies! I expect to see the uses of this in the near future. Please make something cool from the die cutoffs!! YOU are THE MAN! (With big balls!)
So I have two things to say about this video: One... I like that you're showing something besides forging bc it's showing that it takes more than hammer work to run the shop. Two... you show that you put as much effort and precise work into something menial like maintenance as you do your work. As a small engine mechanic in Florida...I can truly respect that.
I would have panicked as well. In fact I did panic while watching. But if I were editing my own video I would leave out the crying and swearing, get a shot of myself thoughtfully stroking my goatee, and then go to the part where I got it working again.
LOL that feeling you get when you're about to hack apart your dies! Your facial expression was very appropriate! Nice video, Torbjorn. Thanks for sharing.
*- Aha... at **16:07** one can start to see that there is a slotted screw in the Upper Valve Air Flow, and more clearly at **16:11**.* *- The added air flow is just enough to allow "dumping" of air so the soft/light hammer function can work well at your preferred lower height.* *- Clever engineering for multiple/variable hammer strength solution(s) per different heights for different type of job requirements in any factory/shop. Brilliant!* *- Wonderful tutorial!*
While I won’t pretend to know how a power hammer works, it is super cool to see the guts of one and get a general idea of how one functions. Very cool. Very interesting. Thx Torbjörn!
Thank you for your video in the hammer. Lots of things to think about when you become a blacksmith. My grandfather taught me at an early age , never own anything that you can't repair yourself.
I admire your work Mr. Åhman . Thank you for creating this beautiful content. If you would like to clean the tiny rust and dirt on the shafts there is a really nice shop trick. You can buy some patch of scotch brite pads and cut circles out of them in desired diameter. Then you can attach them on a bolt then on to the drill. Coarse scotch brites are even finer than extra fine wire wheels and it leaves really smooth surface. I personally use 30cm long M8 bolt and attach 4 scotch brite pads (Each one is around 9mm thick and I cut them around 10 cm diameter). That way it enables me to use my both hands and apply even pressure.
After cutting forging dies for your power hammer, you should heat treat them again,especially after removing such thick layer of tool steel. Otherwise working surface stays soft and gets mushroomed very fast.Even self-hardening type,such as H13,requires re-heating in that case.
Precision thats what make you stand higher from all others. No fooling around just professionalism. I dont understand tools but thats how work is to be done.👍👍👍👍that huge nail look awesome👍👍🔥🔥
Hey torbjorn,it's me the strange guy from Belgium, now my back is Cured I made a herb chopper, it's not so beautiful as yours but I'm happy with it. Thanks for your explanations in your mail to me, I've learned a lot and now I'm back in business, thanks and hail to torbjorn the blacksmith master😎😎
When you scratch your head I get worried. I always have wondered what a power hammer looks like inside. Thanks for sharing your repair with us. Stay safe. TG
I'm so glad each time I'm getting a notification for on of your videos! In this one, as expected of course, I enjoy your engineering skills starting from a proper and safe hammer maintenance, continue with a successful and useful upgrade and finally hit the nail like a proper Scandinavian guy🙂👍. Thank you for the treat! Looking forward for the upcoming Xmas video(I guess and wish).
The huge nail was a funny touch! A hunnerd or two years ago when I was a kid, an elderly gent taught me to use a metal spoon for rolling in leather seals and the like. He gave me one of his old spare tea spoons and showed me how to thin the edges with a file, then smooth it with fine emery paper, then polish it. Made his own polishing compound from stuff we had lying around where I worked. A little Coke bottle (five cent deposit, but no one was looking) from the rack by the machine, a shop rag, a hammer (or a rock, anything to break the glass) and a couple of pieces of metal to rub the glass between. Keep grinding the glass against itself until it's like flour, mix it with a little bearing grease, a little dab on the shop rag, and get after it. A thin edge, but not a sharp one. Slightly rounded with no burrs. Worked perfectly.
It is so pleasing and relaxing to follow Torbjorn's videos. Even for a complex maintainance work he needs no words to make everything understandable and comprehensible. In comparision to most of the other chitty-chatty, self-promoting and vain craftmans channels Torbjön is a wellness oasis :)
I´d say the traditional blacksmith through times has been in the perfect spot for controlling all other local trades by their personal whims. -"NO SOUP FOR YOU !" :D

There was obviously a time in Germany when everything was made to last forever. When the relationship between Humans and Machines was not killed by Screens and digital stuff. Sad but true.
Any old machines, German or otherwise. The cast iron was much better quality back then and the castings much heavier construction. And you can refurbish and resurface and re-scrape them and they'll last ANOTHER 75 or 100 years! Like brand new.

Another interesting video from Mr. Torbjörn After using the tool for a while, you need more maintenance because the useful life of each piece decreases over time, but you repaired it the moment before the hammer was damaged. good work And the final scene was very exciting and fancy Good luck
could it be that cutting the dies down changes the stroke of the hammer (makes it longer) thereby altering its timing. adding extra airbleed in that valve solving the problem? I would also like to know how old that power hammer is and if there are still spare parts for it.. looks like something from early 20th century..!?
I’d say it almost looks like it was originally timed for short dies but then someone modified it for longer dies and their fix was to add a screw. Mr Ahman here might have just had the same idea as the original designer in wanting to maximize the length of the piston. Who ever added the screw and longer dies may have been the same person to put the seal in backwards.
P.s. it really is remarkable how much of a story these old machines can tell if you know how to read the signs. Seems to apply across all old equipment from the old airplanes I work on to heavy machinery like this old power hammer
Reminds me of when I was a kid. We lived near RR tracks, and we played on them every weekend. We would walk the tracks, hop trains, and every once in a while we considered it a lucky day if we found a RR Spike. Nice job.

After using the tool for a while, you need more maintenance because the useful life of each piece decreases over time, but you repaired it the moment before the hammer was damaged. good work
And the final scene was very exciting and fancy
Good luck
wow, remove one existing screw and you fix your timing, that is either a really forgiving power hammer or very lucky
could it be that cutting the dies down changes the stroke of the hammer (makes it longer) thereby altering its timing. adding extra airbleed in that valve solving the problem?
I would also like to know how old that power hammer is and if there are still spare parts for it.. looks like something from early 20th century..!?
The hammer was built in 1955 I think, so it's not that old. Yes the longer stroke makes a difference apparently!

Who ever added the screw and longer dies may have been the same person to put the seal in backwards.
P.s. it really is remarkable how much of a story these old machines can tell if you know how to read the signs. Seems to apply across all old equipment from the old airplanes I work on to heavy machinery like this old power hammer

Reminds me of when I was a kid. We lived near RR tracks, and we played on them every weekend.
We would walk the tracks, hop trains, and every once in a while we considered it a lucky day if we found a RR Spike.
Nice job.
As west here “Nailed It”!
Great video and awesome job fixing that beautiful hammer
