i have made many of these blades and others with bandsaw blades and old files and they perform really well considering that they are not "Known" steels. Many makers and some of the product websites say that Nicholson files are 1095 but hey only way id believe that is getting it tested by a lab hahaha!!! Anyhoozle hope you enjoy this build and stay tuned for more. Email : gcgerber@hotmail.com In...

Good to see a young engineer getting into complex tasks, you should be very proud of your ingenuity. 🥇👻
Thanks!!!👍👍
@@daveh777 you are very welcome
barefoot??
Work with metal and no shoes??????? This guy is crazy.
@@artamandi should i wear safery shoes in the kitchen when i cook...
that`s some serious work right there :)
👍👍👍😁😁😁
Beautiful
Great job 👏
Thank you its been a while lol
Do you have any clue as to how absorbent your cuticles and nail beds are ?!!!!!!!
Sounds safer to buy. To do chemical work, you need chemical tools, such as fume hoods.
That looks cool just wondering why water quench
Not trying to be a smarty pants but on the tap and die set, the 13 doesn’t stand for mm but it means 13 threads per inch. Just love your videos and I’m working to build one of these sanders myself
It sure does I figured that out soon after lol thanks for the advice!!!
Awesome video
Thanks!
When’s your next video?
soon im hoping lol
Where did you score that Pomel cap carving that is awesome
What is fortscale? You mentioned it 15.18 ‘ permanent marker simulating fortscale’
Awesome. I've come to the conclusion that there is no easy way to draw a spike out by hand. There are just slightly more efficient ways. It's all hard work. I have found that a diagonal cross pein works pretty well. Still hard work though.
Can you do that design on thinner blade steel? The knife steel I am using is 2.5mm, or does it work much better on thicker steel? Great video's by the way, really keen to get into this, Cheers..
Yes you can BUT its going to take waaaaaay more finesse and patience...waaaaay more hahaha but the end result would be amazing if you pull it off
I find that letting my cable soak in kerosene over night does magic to cable. Brakes down the rust and cleans out the grease
I will use this idea next time thank you!!!
@@CGSmithing your welcome sir
You better name her BARNEY!!! I love the accent and be careful that none of these idiots call you a zenophobe ! Lol best regards from NY
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN Straight its called Barney hahaha!!!
Is there a forge function reason why you went for a round forge instead of a square ish one?
Materials and flame movement is all nothing too scientific
*This is the kind of crap you get from Millennials watching too much FinF on the History Channel. Flip Flops in a knife shop? Really?Even Wifey is like "WTF?"...RMFES* 🙄👎
First off im not a millennial so FU for that one. As for the rest lol its in my basement my "clean" shop so sanding space leatherwork and watching tv sooooo its a ppe free zone its like you telling me i need to wear shoes in my house or safety boots in my kitchen because there is knives there... oh and FU for the millennial thing again hope you enjoyed the vid though no hard feelings i love these comments broski it keeps me safe and on the long and narrow but was definitely not warented for this vid. 🤜🏼🤛🏼 @Fireworxs2012
Very nice work !
Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks man, love to do these, never really get them symmetrical. Will definitely watch again soon while in action!!
Dude!! I like it!! I’ve seen other videos but I like the fact that you take the time to explain the different movements and angles!! Thank You for your patience!! Ya know I gotta tell ya , years ago I was bare foot in my sons room, I had fabricated a simple workout bench with a lat bar attachment for him and I left a burr on the edge and he mentioned it so I got up and before I put my shoes on , it was Saturday, I figured I’d fix the bench and remove the burr !!! So I turned my angle grinder on ,and was gonna take the burr off ,,, before I knew it the grinder was out of my hand and dropping rapidly!! I had accidentally bumped the rail and dropped the grinder ,, long story short,, I ended up in the emergency room getting stitches for a severe wound !! The doctor said, you better be thankful you didn’t cut a tendon or you’d be in a very expensive surgery and may loose the use of a toe or multiple toes!! I learned the importance of wearing shoes! Just a word To the wise !!! Thanks again!!!
This is just what I needed - brings a press to my hobbyist budget as a real possibility and allows for forge welding. What I can't do I can ship out to local welders and machinist. Great video.
Very welcome!
awsome dude ,,,,,,you have skills :P
Lame af
You are the best teacher on this thank you
Great video! Love your work. You should consider investing in a horizontal band saw and you can make those cuts yourself. You can get them in the US for about $350 new, but I’ll bet you can find them used online. Keep up the great content! I’m a bladesmith also and just started following you on Instagram too!
I bought one id say 3 weeks after i made this one lol i wasnt going to have that issue again and it is still going strong
Great build, just doing research for my build.
That is excellent, thanks for the video. Good enough for me. I have heard of other guys wiring a foot switch to the green button circuit. Nice demo.
Where do you get the steel wool?
Just noticed the Tim's coffee cup..So are you Canadian too?
I am Now yes wasnt at that time of the video. Born and raised South-African
I enjoyed the video thanks. New subscriber
Make a paddle to push that button and pull the lever down at the same time.
Looks like a low cost way to start and prove your interest or not
dude I hate those guys that try to tell people mistakes and what they do wrong and shit but man why did you put your work so high, and max out at 3100 on a 3000 home build. Also your top is bending man...That ain't good at all
I would absolutlely LOVE if you could explain what you mean...one thing for sure...top DOES NOT BEND...has not bent...soooo explain pls
cute...!
Ted Mosby twin brother? 😅 nice video!
Maaaaaaàn lolol im not even surprized anymore hahaha
Cool video!
Use a product called SLIP Plate No.1 to ease the up and down movement on the sides sliders, you will thank me later
Ferric chloride is a corrosive, not an acid!
Great work !
Don't know if u will see this comment but I want u to know I've learned a lot from you working on my log splitter press now and I even made the barney edition 2x72 lol thanks for all your help
Damn straight i see every single comment hehehe thanx for the love man my barney is still ripping steel apart!!!
It's amazing how similar your build is to mine. Even the coal forge was almost exactly like mine. I used 2in. Of kaowool and refractory from Canadian forge. Also itc 100. I have 2 burners. I have an opening door on my forge. I mean almost exactly the same. Thank you for sharing. Oh, I live in southwest Ohio.
Nice!!! Yeah my forge is still going strong ive made many many maaaaany things in it with zero issues!!!!
@@CGSmithing I built mine mainly for heat treatment for knives but who knows what I will do with it.
To slow? Not powerful enough? Lot faster and a whole lot stronger than a hammer and 💪
For what it is its damn awesome!!!
That's fandamntastic! Love it!
Fantastic, thank you!!
