I really fancied having a go at forging a socket chisel. I thought it would be a fun challenge and also some good practice. I reckon it turned out great but I'm sure I could improve on it next time! :)
As always I'm happy to answer any questions.

As a proffesional blacksmith with hand tools specialty, including chisels, I must say- good work. Hard to belive it's your first one.
Thanks very much for your encouragement Greg - that means a lot! :)
I guess when you get experienced enough from previous 'first tries' you learn to avoid those things and plan ahead more. Not speaking from personal experience, in my mid 20s still a child.
Im in the same boat, a blacksmith of 14 years specializing in tool production and I was impressed by the overall quality, as well as his partial success in forge welding the bit. Most newcomers cant get a forge weld down for a while, but Id say he’ll have it within a few tries. Just goes to show that true craftsman talent does in fact translate and transfer between fields.
Man, this chisel is looking weirder and weir...oh that's the part that connects to the handle!
ikr haha! wtf is he doing??? oh ... :D
I thought the same, I was thinking this is not a chisel its a Bowl Gouge until a few minutes later lol
I’m like cool dovetail, how does that... oh it’s for the socket 😅
Ditto
ha ha...I had EXACTLY the same thought!
I like the rugged looks of low spots and dimples. Nice work. Thanks.
I just live the fact that that was your first time forge welding and you came away with not only a successful weld but a beautiful and useful tool in the end. Wonderful work Mr. Pask
That camber of speech of yours and your calm demeanor make watching you fun. Your exquisite attention to detail and careful execution make you a master.
Dear Neil, I've been watching your videos for sometime, I'd liked to say you're a great teacher, thank you for your amazing effort and sharing all your knowledge and experiences here. That's priceless. What you do is a great example of teaching and education. I believe governments need to learn from you how to approach the younger generations to help them to become real persons who are also helpful individuals for the society. Thank you very much again. Love from Istanbul. And your photos are amazing... Keep on taking!
Your metalworking skills continue to progress/impress. Love your work! Keep it up!
Wow amazing. Forging a decent socket always looked like a magic trick to me. Nicely done.
Aluminium foil - only genius can do that. Nice CHISEL ☺ Cheeers!
Agreed another one for my bag of tricks
Yeah, brilliant!
Oh yes, definately keeping this one in my bag!
Good job on the forge welding! Beautiful result.
Grinders and paint make me the welder I ain't 😁
I love your videos. No BS, No sponsorship you just get right into and you explain as you go without dragging it on. Built a set of truck drawers off your videos, don't change how you do them!
I didn't know your channel 6 months ago. Now it's one of the ones I look forward to. Every project blows me away. Thanks for sharing your talents.
That is fantastic. Its amazing what you can make with a relatively simple setup.
Wow! Lovely big chisel, and some seriously good skills on display. I wish I could be only a fraction as talented as you.
I never cease to be amazed by your mastery of every skill you attempt. Well done!
Wonderful job! Your videos are always inspiring!! Thank you so much for sharing your creations with us!!
Love the true workmanship. As one wood expect from hand forged tools some imperfections that make it unique. Enjoy your Chanel.
What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship .
Really enjoying the blacksmith work you've been doing lately.
A lovely job as always. I really enjoy your ingenuity and clever ways of getting around little 'problems' like e.g. how to easily polish a metal ring/band using a wooden cone shaped holder in the drill press, so I am always picking up very useful tips and tricks from your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Really enjoy your channel.....very inventive and not afraid to try anything. This video brought back memories of my father, who was a blacksmith whenever he needed to be and was very good at it. Thanks.
Such a beautiful chisel. Reminds me of an Auriou chisel, with the hand-made imperfections still there. You should make an entire set, that would look beautiful and a center piece of any tool collection. Great work!
That chisel is fantastic, man you are a inspiration! Great JOB!
I have an very old carpenters slick and it has come in handy a least half a dozen times a year. Great video! Thanks for sharing.
awesome, I really like that you reuse all the tools you previously made
That was cool! Fun project and you have a great attitude! "If the forge weld doesn't work, I'll grind it off and do it again." And it totally worked a dream. Well done!
Picked up a bunch of nifty tricks AGAIN! So happy I found your channel 😊 thanks as always!
So good Neil! Thanks for the video! Your blacksmithing is getting better! Keep it up.
Thanks very much Erik! :)
I cannot take my eyes off the screen, I stay transfixed until it ends. I watch the video twice to see what I missed each time I blink. Lol. Great Job. It's a joy to watch your video.
Great project Pask. The chisel turned out beautiful. I have always wondered how the socket is forged, and now I know.
Thanks Bob! :)
That turned out great! Love you ideas and the way you bring them to reality! Great job!
Yes I do enjoy watching you make things I guess you have a lot to learn, but if I could do the things you are capable of, I'd be a happy camper.
Thanks for filming this for us.
Your videos have so much personality to them. Love everything you set your mind to.
Thanks very much Hakeem! :)
I just don't manage to sharpen my chisel and you simply make it yourself. RESPECT!
As always, humble, inspiring and educational. I really look forward to your videos. Keep up your fantastic work, and watch out for the sneks. ; )
Wow, a really nice chisel! Beautifully done sir!
Beautiful tool! I really connect to the way you think and work. Keep rocking! Cheers!
Well done! Practice makes perfect, and you are getting better and better. Looking forward to your next creation.
Thanks very much Tom! :)
I'm practically drooling... Thats so cool!
One of your best working. Great job!
Love this project, will have to try doing that one day. Cheers Neil!
Absolutely love your videos, very informative and fun to watch!
I happened to watch one of your older forging videos this morning. You’ve improved dramatically! Love the chisel, and as always thanks for sharing!
Thanks David - that's great to hear! :)
@@PaskMakes I agree, forge welding is not so simple. Congratz!
Hmm... i think i will try making my own hook knife this week - will be doing blacksmith work for the first time ☺
My Mora knife is working ok, but it doesn't feel perfect. It's a bit too slim and i want to make a hook knife in a water drop shape, just like Lee Stoffer makes.
Bought some charcoal today and i will make a simple forge Torbjorn style - in a box of sand with a little blower.
THANK YOU AWESOME PEOPLE FOR SHARING IDEAS ON RUclips!♥
A stunning build and fantastic result.
A very handsome chisel. Thanks for sharing your work.
Hello Neil, here in Germany it is now 9 pm. Since you have really made a beautiful tool again. It makes working so much fun and fun again. Super 👍 👍 A great part. Greetings Martin 🙋♂️
Thanks very much Martin! :)
Gorgeous, I'd be proud to call that my own, even more so if I'd made it myself. Fantastic job sir! I love the character of a hand made tool.
Damn ! I need one of those chisels in my workshop , awesome job Neil
Fantastic build Neil, enjoyed every moment. You seem so quietly confident in each step, you're like a maker's guru.
Thanks very much Keith! I generally am quite confident with most things but not so with the forge welding. I was pretty unsure about that! :)
Always enjoy your videos Neil. This looks like a fun one.
Nicely done Pask! That chisel is both beautiful & functional. You really do terrific metal fabrication & woodworking! Cheers.................. :)
Thanks very much Steve! :)
Quality job, you never fail to impress with your skills sir
Been waiting for this video since your Instagram post a week or so ago! Very nice work Neil, I would guess only a handful of these big mortice chisels have been hand forged in the last century so you are now one of that tiny number! As too it’s usefulness, I have a chisel that size and its used very often, nothing like a big heavy blade for roughing into heavy timber. You will use it more often as you get use to it! Well done, great work!
You continue to inspire me. Great trick with the foil. Beautiful piece of kit you made there.
That's a really nice looking chisel! May God Bless you and your family Greatly
Lovely job on the chisel Neil, you certainly haven't shied away from trying your hand at some advanced techniques, despite being relatively new to the craft. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
I like the way you start each new task in real time, let’s us slow minded keep up. Good video once again
Mate! What an absolute corker! 👍
Schmicko build/forge, Neil. 👌
A useful piece of art. Congrats on how it turned out!
Congrats on your success for your first time forge welding, another awesome project and video. very impressive chisel Mate !!
Every time I see that big belt sander I'm filled with envy, that thing is amazing
Hi, one of the things I like about your channel is that you are happy to try anything, and do quite well. I love your scrap wood challenge any only wish I had something like that around here. I should not complain as I have a supply of six foot pallets but they are all softwood.
Brilliant job on the chisiel well done.
I liked the foil trick for getting the inside shape of the socket. Clever.
Looking great. Nice job on the forge weld and socket. The touchmark looks good too. 👍
Thanks David! I was actually a bit disappointed in the touch mark, only because I didn't strike it very cleanly. I need to get my flypress setup for that process! :)
@@PaskMakes It's recognizable, it's well positioned and it nicely completes the chisel, I wouldn't worry too much about it. :-)
It has to be the most amazing beltsander I've ever seen :) - so envious :D - Also, fantastic work!
Hope you work your way down to the 1/4" chisel!
I like your working style , the spanner calipers & tinfoil were great 👍
You are a man of many talents! Your videos are well edited and always a genuine pleasure to watch. I would love to see a Q&A video about you. I am curious how you got into woodworking, what you do for employment (besides RUclips), were you born in Australia, etc. It would also be fun to see your property and have a shop tour. Thanks for sharing!
That method of using the caliper to carve in a depth cut into the wood is brilliant lol you just sand to the bottom of the cut and you’re at the correct diameter. Awesome!
Nice chisel. Well done. I love the tip to use aluminium foil to get the shape of the inside of the socket. I have some socket chisels which need new handles so the tip will be useful.
Dave.
Thanks! Glad it was useful! :)
It’s a great tip, I’ve heard of using plasticine but foil wouldn’t leave a residue.
Absolutely amazing job Neil!!! I’m a timber framer by trade and I would be proud to use a tool like that! Another fantastic video brother! 😁🌲
Wow that came out beautiful!
Nice chisel! Impressive. I want to be able to do that too! There are so many steps to producing things like this!
Always enjoy watching. Don't know how I missed this one...cheers...rr Normandy, Fra.
Really nice work mate. You're getting better at blacksmithing all the time buddy. Keep up the fascinating work
It looks amazing, what a creativity!
That is one awesome chisel Neil! Well done.
That's a beautiful chisel great job
Great chisel, I could use that every day at work.
Awesome job Neil! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Found your channel a few weeks ago. You are quite talented and have interesting projects. Thanks!
I think we need a new segment " Pask Makes Coffee " that's some piece of equipment
I am also interested in that contraption!
I've been using these coffee makers for about 8 or 9 years and love them, I had the earlier model too. To find it search Rok coffee maker. It's a shame I messed up the milk pour, I had the jug in my opposite hand to normal as the camera was in the way, I normally pour it silkily! :)
"Pask Makes Coffee", I like it!
That was the most complicated part of the build
Yep, just wanted to ask the same thing, but you got it first. =)
BLOODY HELL THATS A BEAST!! 😳
Great make my friend, well done 👍🏼😉😊
Great to see Monty again. Nice chisel, too.
Love the outcome!
Great video of the skills
Also your forge caught my eye as I get ready to move forward from only coal.
Yes I like the opening of the front. Do plan a slide split door .Got my tank soon to get a start figure a three leg as I have gravel floor.
Also a ribbon burner seems they a more effective saves gas so I hear.
Thanks
Beautiful job absolutely amazing well done and best wishes from England 👏 🇬🇧
Beautiful work! You must be a proud man!
Great job my friend it's always good to see something made from scratch
Regards
Steve UK London
Great project, great job.....aluminum foil was BRILLIANT! So pleased to have found your channel
Excellent job, you must be very proud of that.
That’s an amazing job pal well done!
Awesome video and build mate. That was labor intensive for sure but the end results are great.
That is very useful tool .I especially like the finish.
love it , would have loved that chisel back 30 years ago when i was timber framing, lol had one much smaller ssame width just not the heaft that has , great job again enjoyed
Awesome trick with the tin foil! Never thought of that when making handles for my socket chisels.
Another great project Neil, and your execution and attitude are remarkable and extremely encouraging as always! Just found your photography site, which is a great job as well.
Thanks very much Stefan - glad you enjoyed the photography! :)
Neil, you are the MAN!
