- Epic forged blacksmith coal shovel Stove-fireplace tool
Hey everyone and welcome back to Empty Pockets Ironworks. Chris here, hope everyone has remained in good health since last week.
For this weeks video I thought I would demonstrate how i make our Coal shovels, These vary in length and are paired nicely with our fire pokers, spatulas and other fire tending tools. I truly hope you enjoy the video and if you so feel inclined please drop a like and subscribe if you haven't already.
The channel is growing, were already almost to 1500 subs! I will no doubt do another giveaway once we reach that milestone. I may do a mid week video with an instruction on how I create my templates and the theory I have created with halves when designing skull templates. for those of you that wish to make your own templates maybe there will be something you can takeaway from the video.
I had recorded an intro to this video and had a few key things I wanted to discuss but it had to be scrapped as I was about 3 minutes in and the lovely neighbors mutts decided to start barking at absolutely everything....they are the type that bark at everything all hours- day and night and really serve no purpose other than keeping the grass virtually non existent and escaping constantly. Typically while recording any intro I have to record 2-3 due to random barking today I didn't have the fight in me. I so long to live back outside city limits but as we own this home and shop i fear we may be stuck for a few more years.
Enough venting, I hope this video finds you all well and that you can possibly take away something from my process and or spark some sort of creativeness. as always thank you so much for your time and views and if possible share with your friends.
Chris
That's a lovely piece of work, thanks for sharing with us
Thank you
Love it nicely done.
Thank you!
Nice !!!
Thank you!
That’s a great shovel. I’ll have that in my mind for a long time. Thanks!
Thank you for watching, and very welcome.
Very, very nice combination of twists and techniques, IMHO. More and more, I see why you use that double-ball setup more and more! Nice touch with the angle iron, also.
Thank you sir!
Very nice hearth shovel😉
Thank you
Very nice, keep this up and will be known as heavy pockets! Love the tow ball tool, be making one of those! Thanks.
Hahaha thanks
Just in time to fill stockings with coal
By the scoop full!
Nice build Chris! I'll have to remember the technique with the angle iron.
Thank you
Best looking coal shovel I have seen more like art pice mate. (:
Thank you sir.
I really liked your steady pace while you were working at the anvil. Nice work, sir!
Greetings from a fellow blacksmith, and a new subscriber ;)
I really appreciate that! Thank you for watching and the sub
Bon, c'est à peu près....
How long is the initial length of the angle iron before forming it?
Beautiful work!!
Thank you, this particular one was 11.5 inches. If course a tad longer won't hurt and will allow you to get in behind and weld a bit easier. Thank you for watching
@@wrotiron thank you.
First!
Thank you
Hi how did you sketch out that pattern for the shovel any chance of getting a copy of it?
Hello, it's actually just a design I came up with based on some similar shovels I had seen. It's a bit larger then a normal swage pattern. I have the template saved and can add it to our template inventory that's pdf downloadable sometime tomorrow after work. We have an out of town show today and won't be back till late. Can shoot an email to emptypocketsironworks@gmail.com and just put in that you had some with me about the shovel template and we can get you set up.
@@wrotiron Thanks very much mate appreciate it.
What thickness (metric if you don't mind) are you using for the scoop part?
Thank you for the comment, it's 14 gauge or approximately 2.0 mm light but string enough with side bends to be useful.
@@wrotiron Thnx! :-)
I'm sorry I haven't called, but somethings changed and I don't have it right now to order anything. Again sorry
No worries
