Me texting wife: Hey honey can you come out here and turn this crank beside the burning hot coal to make it even hotter? Wife, texting from inside air conditioning: NO. Got yourself quite the co-worker, turns up the heat and can swing a sledge hammer. She's a keeper LOL. Another great video.
I have been forging metals for about 50 years and am glad to see younger people doing the same. Please accept this as advice to find an old smith that can show you how to manage your fire keeping it small and very hot. Anytime you see excessive thick smoke it is not forging hot and to large. One of the old Men that taught me said ; keep your fire no larger than a robins nest ; I love your videos my only complaint is that there are not more of them...Steve (medicine man)
I sure she will put on shoes and and an apron if she thinks she needs them..that girl is tough..i like that in a woman. He knows what he has .and a lucky man at that
@@mtpockets7352 It is a choice, but not a matter of toughness. Toughness doesn't affect the probability or severity of damage due to doing such work without eye protection, shoes, etc. When I and others do such things it is not bravery and toughness -- often lazy and something like stupidity.
I doubt I will ever forge anything but nice video, however I would like to know where he findd a good looking woman like that who is willing to stand out in the heat swing a hammer and turn a blower all day? I can barely get mine off the couch to cook a meal twice a week and do laundry with whining and crying in a temp controlled house!!! Hats off to her! And to him for the nice tool.
dude if you are looking for an apprentice sign me up. this skillset is right up my alley. your skill with hammers, axes, knives and chisels is damn impressive. thanks for putting out these videos
I’m a scientist and a perfectionist. I appreciate the time honored traditions and craftsmanship you bring to your channel . As as result I have ordered 6 carving knives from north bay knives and two of your adzes (rough and finishing). I reservists most of the carving knives and they are exceptional. I’m looking forward to your adzes in 2
When I saw you cut off that piece of hot metal and it flipped off I was glad it didn’t land on her bear feet! The talent you have using simple tools is impressive.
I know money is tight. For a small investment you could purchase a canvas tarp and create some shade. Would also allow you to see the color changes in your material. Could then be used later to cover other equipment or as an emergency covering. Thanks for the great content!
Hello. just found your channel. subscribed. Been forging for some time now....:) If i might make a helpful hint. Please dress your striking tools faces. i have personally seen what one of those crowned pieces will do to someone if it breaks off in a missed blow. Turning into a molten hot shard able to burn instantly thru an apron and keep burning into the body. Great project. well shot. well explained. beautiful location, help, and that beard. Haha. Look forward to watching more when i'm not in the shop.
Thanks for the reply, Northwest Arkansas, beautiful country!!!!! You know your stuff, great presentation, the guitar playing: awesome, best of all, both of you together put out a positive vibe that radiates thru the phone screen. Keep up the good work, and greetings from L.A. Calif.
Informative and entertaining just like all of your other videos. The landscape and timber around your place makes for a beautiful office. Your videos and channel are much appreciated and as always...Thank you. I purchased a couple of your items from your Etsy page and am looking forward to using them. Also, I am converting a 10 x 20 shed into a small cabin on my 20 acres while my wife and I build our small home. I am interested in a couple of custom forged items for said project....I will send the request via your Etsy page to see if its anything you would be interested in. Thanks again!
OMG! Beautiful assistant, for God's sake, put some boots on her lovely feet!!!! LOL Great job, would love to do some forging with you guys, take care and be safe!
Very good video, nice explanation of ‘hardening and tempering’. I have done blacksmithing repairs for friends since 1980..... I have never been able to explain it as well as you my friend.
This is something I've recently gotten interested in I was wondering where would you get a forge table like you have with the water quenching pit in it and stuff.
Or, make it yourself, exactly to your own design. You just have to figure out welding if you dont already know, and aquire the materials. A forge isn't that hard to make, and there are loads of videos on RUclips to guide you in all sorts of design ideas. Coal acquisition is the thing, in some parts of the world, that may prove somewhat difficult. In the USA, Amazon is one source... If you can't find in already built, look at some videos and see if you think you can take on building your own. As far as the water well, heck, cut a hole sized for a stainless steel mixing bowl and drop one of those in for the wet bath.
Gotta earn her keep for such finerys. In meantime bare feet build character and keep you grounded with nature and in the moment aware of potential harm. Once a daughter hits 18 she's gotta work until the day she has acquired the skills necessary to be considered a master blacksmith. Then and only then is when he plans to put a ring on it and make it official
I Really enjoy your video’s. I am an amateur spoon carver - hobbyist at best. I would like to start carving some bowls and have been looking for a good adze when I watched this video. I liked the fact that you designed your adze from your experience with bowl carving. Essentially creating a better designed tool for the task making a bowl by hand. I would like to make an adze using your design. Do you have any plans, angles, measurements you would be willing to share
@@CarvingAPath Good Morning, I’m not sure if I am sending an email to you or if this is going to the public comments section, so this is a test before I send you my email address
Hey man, I thought you looked like a guy who plays the guitar. Great. My full time job for the last 34 years. Enjoy your films. Especially the sailing.
So I went back and re watched a bunch of your videos. I notice the small things such as jewelry and such. And yall got some skating game! there are some Fascinating stories to be told there I'm sure.
Nice place you got, and cool video. Looks like cass or mulberry area, im further south near ouchitas and blue mountain lake. Love arkansas best place to be in my opinion.
"Back in the day I use to weld the handles on but"....... HAHAHA!! I like your no non-sense videos with just a touch of humor. I thought there was a way to weld with a forge, and I wonder what the ticking sound is on the drill press, belt powered maybe? I use truck spring all the time making stuff but I weld it. I'm not a safety guru but your wife needs some boots, safety glasses and you both need hearing protection. Interesting video thanks for sharing...........
Yabbut @ 4:15, you can see she has the presence of mind to watch where the hot piece of metal lands. They both work with clarity and a high level of awareness, but you're right in that there's no substitute quite like personal protective equipment. I find their approach quite refreshing (in this age) and an authentic "step back in time" in line with what they're producing.

Hope you dont mind but I'm watching this one and some of your past videos again. The problems you had getting carving wood was one of my favorites, misery loves company I guess, either that or I like the way you explain stuff.
That's really cool. Reminds me of the projects in the Weygers books I used to read years ago. Please keep up the good work. BTW, I switched to propane a year ago for the sake of my neighbors' air quality and my own lungs. It's not quite as good as coal, but it's ok.
You sure do have a great looking motor on that blower!
Smoking hot girl
Power hammer as well. Some of the nicest equipment I've seen for years

That's what I was thinking. No particular purpose but the views. I suppose it works but I'm here for the adz.
She's stoking my fire.
@@josephtackle9727 can't believe I'm watching this but parts of it were worth it lol!
@@SuccessShared the foundry work is fantastic, but watching her crank that handle is mesmerizing.
Well worth it
Buy the girl some shoes, for crying out loud.
And an apron. If that chunk of orange-heat metal had have gone down her shirt there would have been a pretty unfortunate outcome.
I sure she will put on shoes and and an apron if she thinks she needs them..that girl is tough..i like that in a woman. He knows what he has .and a lucky man at that

That’s it, I am learning guitar and forging...
Stick with guitar!
I not sure if your motivation for that is correct 🤔
Me too!
I'd go into engineering and keep that motor well serviced
I only got one of em down lol
This comment section is cursed - no respect. Love the metal work and the camera work. Great video!

have three female friends like dont mind using manual or power tools
If I had an “ AZZ” like that around I wouldn’t get any work done.
Hear hear!!!
Bro that could be his daughter,
@@anselshamash377 I mean that kinda makes it hotter ...
@@dallas9795 yea mabey cause ur thinking about her father
@@anselshamash377 well I am non binary.... 😂
I sure wish that I had a beautiful back woods lady to help me on my projects.
Just ordered one of your adze for my carving hobby,
The distance from the ground to his beards end minus the distance from the ground to the hot coals determines how long his beard will grow.

Y’all living the dream! Great video
I'm sure you've probably heard this a lot, but your assistant is quite the beauty 😍
Great video. I've always been confused with the difference between hardening and tempering until watching this 👍
I think I need a striker/ assistant like yours, mine always seem to have too much hair in places other than the head
I was thinking the same thing. Don't think my wife would like it though! 🤣
@@jameshuggins4300 Shaving? 😉
@@court2379 she doesn't have a problem with shaving. She wouldn't like another woman helping me in the shop!🤣🤣🤣
Love the team work, but you need those shoes, I have burnt my feet on scale, offcuts and shavings so always with the shoes
All respect. She has a beautiful figure
I would breed her for sure.
And barefoot!
What an amazing wife.
Awesome forging, I like how well you and the misses works together, your a great team thanks for the great content.
Bare foot forging, she is a brave woman. Thanks for the video.
Smart man. Keep her bare foot and toes up... Lol sorry couldn't pass it up.
Really great point and explain the colors in real time I've missed that in a lot of other videos
Her little bare foots on them rocks. Shes tuff. Hard work but you got it.

Maybe its the video sound- but your anvil is singing- take care of your ears
Great place for a blacksmith - have fun
Wont it help if he tightens the bolts that connect his anvil his stand
А меня жена заставляет бороду сбрить. Пригласите меня в гости я вам помогу
He keeps his woman barefoot and not pregnant at the blacksmith shop.
It's hard to get a female pregnant when he has a vagina.

My grandfather had a forge. I had fun as a kid cranking the fan.
This is one adze that I didn't skip! Lovely craftmanship 🤗
This is something I've recently gotten interested in I was wondering where would you get a forge table like you have with the water quenching pit in it and stuff.
The best place to look for blacksmithing equipment is craigslist or Facebook marketplace.
Or, make it yourself, exactly to your own design. You just have to figure out welding if you dont already know, and aquire the materials. A forge isn't that hard to make, and there are loads of videos on RUclips to guide you in all sorts of design ideas.

Ауууф не могу какая там красотка
Those lame cogged belts on those Ryoby sander...I converted mine to chain. Way less down time, and a segmented bicycle chain provides years of supply.
Please help!!! Whenever I try and make an adze the end cracks off. What am I doing wrong??
We’d be happy to help!. Here is our email address so we can communicate better..

Friggin awesome in every way!!!
Outstanding! Fellow blacksmith here. I dig what you got goin on. Love your channel.
Excellent chape I like the metal neck and pocket knife handle, Yes this was a tutorial. Wished I had the wife's help too, lucky man.
A question....inside or outside bevel...which is best for this application ?
That's really cool. Reminds me of the projects in the Weygers books I used to read years ago. Please keep up the good work. BTW, I switched to propane a year ago for the sake of my neighbors' air quality and my own lungs. It's not quite as good as coal, but it's ok.
