    You are spot on about the practice with the hacksaw. The angle grinder lads, and some are very able, look surprised when the old school chap gets the job done neatly without power, leads, ppe or harmful dust in short order. Files = same thing. A tip of value. Chapeau.

    I made my first one from coil spring last year and accidentally made it left-handed. I saw a few comments here about mild steel bending, so I'll add that the coil spring was very tough even though it was drawn out very thin. I did not quench it, just air cooled. I figured it was safer to be a little soft than too brittle.

    Great video! I appreciate the metric readings also. This is a really cool project. The drilled hole is a quite high level of blacksmithing. I first saw that in the Lillico book. Most people probably don't realize how useful and smart it is. I had an idea about the forging process. Maybe the handle part could also be done like making a nail. Upset the head above a hole, and draw that out to the sides.

    Hey John, you never show any grinding. It would be nice to see your technique there.

I am sure that I am not the only one who would like to see how that translates to grinding.

    • @waynelewis881
      @waynelewis881 5 лет назад

      Black Bear Forge, yes, I wind around 5/16" because that's what I had that came closest to matching a commercially manufactured corkscrew that we had. Works fine as long as the lead of the spiral remains consistent. I don't see any reason that any diameter up to about 7/16" wouldn't work. I've tried larger diameter, but it made the cork crumble. Like a screw thread, the pitch diameter and lead must remain constant.

    The first one I made was in mild steel and when I did use it, it did not work at all, it become almost straight when going out of the cork instead of getting the cork outside the bottle, since then I make them in tool or spring steel so that I can harden them and it's way better this way !

    What kind of steel is that? I never have luck with mild holding up long at all at a cork screw due to the torque. I always make mine out of 4130/4140 now or sucker rod or something of the likes. Even normalized it holds it's form under torque unlike the mild steel ones

    As mentioned earlier by Iron Eagle Forge, Mark Aspery has an excellent video on making a corkscrew. I use his method now instead of trying to wrap the worm around a mandrel. He also provides the length of material, 4 1/2" for 3 1/2 turns of the worm/screw. At first it seemed odd to do it this way but it goes very quickly. As he mentions, you have to be careful of collapsing the coils.
