    Thank you brother!! As my 15 yr old son is just now beginning to forge, meaning that he just set up his forge and hasn't put any metal in it yet, this is one of the most useful forging videos I've seen.

  • @scotty4899
    @scotty4899 Před 6 měsíci +4

    Thank you!! Realized I've been running in an oxygen rich environment with my little forge. Great to see a demonstration with the same forge I have.
    Thanks for all your videos as well, I really appreciate them.

    As a brand new blacksmithing hobbyist, when you explained how excess scale formed, all of a sudden the “ahah!!” moment hit me! Thanks so much for this!

  • @AaronTWas
    @AaronTWas Před 2 lety +15

    This is by far the best explanation of flame management that I have ever seen for a gas forge. Super helpful, I honestly had no idea what I was looking for in the process of forging with gas. Now I have more direction in the way that I am practicing with using the forge. Thank you!

  • @rustbeltmachine
    @rustbeltmachine Před 2 lety +4

    This is a fantastic explanation. I just had a “weld” come apart and I was wondering why. Turns out louder is not always hotter. You just leveled me up Roy. Thanks.

    @craigwhite1491 Před rokem

  • @OEF_Vet_0331
    @OEF_Vet_0331 Před 2 lety +6

    I’m only half way through this video but wanted to pause to let you know how informative this is for me! Thank you! Your videos are always great. I am an aspiring blacksmith. I just in the past few years got heavy into woodworking and crafting things, and of course I always need more tools, which are expensive (especially now) so naturally it made me want to get into forging my own tools and now I discovered I absolutely love forging. I built a box style bellows and a brick forge,using lump charcoal, but it’s been so hot and dry here lately that I’m too concerned that the sparks from the charcoal will start a fire (there was just a brush fire close to here last week) so I’m trying to learn about gas forges now. Thank you for your knowledge.

  • @Smitty_JT

  • @jonathannovak5961
    @jonathannovak5961 Před 2 lety +17

    Well that's awesome Roy!! Explains why i didn't get that weld to stick. Oxidizing vs carburizing flame from oxy acetylene was my frame of reference before but this was definitely more beneficial and being the exact forge I'm using it's the best tutorial I've seen yet.😁👍

  • @caydenwootton7293

Will be watching this again the next time I fire it up to compare. And I’ll be trying to get one of these in your giveaways this year haha. Thanks!

  • @DownunderFarmandForge
    @DownunderFarmandForge Před 2 lety +1

    Nice explanation Roy, the difference Heat treat to forging, is you want to be a little more on the rich side rather than neutral. Scaling and Carbonation on the blade means some of the outside carbon has migrated to the surface then you have to grind it off, lack of oxygen helps to reduce carbon migration. A lot of people even put a carbon source inside blade foil to react with any oxygen present.

  • @HighDesertForgeIronworks

    Thanks for the great information. However, I have no roof or cover over my forging area. Full bright sunlight makes it very hard to tell the differences! I had no idea how it was running when I fired my Atlas "Graham" forge for the first time ever, but I was surprised how much scale was coming off of a piece of 1/4" square stock. It has an adjustable speed blower and I had it set about 5 to 7 psi.
