Thank you for sharing your experiences. I have learned a few things from your videos that have helped make things easier with goods results. I recently purchased the same saw blades. I am impressed 😊👏👏👏👏
I very happy to hear that! Knowing that my videos are helpful means a lot ❤️ And happy you like these blades! I was very pleased with their quality when I first tried them
Another EXCELLENT video! I sawed OFF the extra metal beyond the handle on the non- "C" side of my Haymaker saw; the big bulb shape and the shape with holes in it (what were those for anyway?)!!! It's aluminum, so it can be sawed off easily and those two parts of the saw are no longer in the way, bumping into my plate, the bench, easier to draw the blade through the bench based cone lubricant, and most of all it no longer falls off my pin when I'm loading a blade, etc. I recommend this DIY saw improvement! Chris designed a gorgeous and solid saw, and now....guess what, it's STILL balanced! It's such a better saw now, and I use it all the time without cursing.
That's so wonderful! It's very exciting that you're starting out, good luck! I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun 😊 And thank you for watching my videos, I hope they will be helpful
It is, isn't it! It's by Lisa from Bring Me My Battleaxe and she still has some in stock: bringmemybattleaxe.com/collections/battleaxe-editions I absolutely love her art and work and these are super cute and affordable wersions of her jewellery. Thanks so much for watching today!
Love your videos, thankyou for sharing.i am a begining metal smith from the states who is now living in spain.what suppliers do you recommend for metal smithing in Europe. For tools for metal chemicals ect
Hey Basia! Always love your vids and learn so much! I need your help, please. I am trying to make peices from brass and the darn saw blade just keeps sliding! Even with beeswax! I'm getting nowhere fast and have many pieces to make for a show in four days!😢😢 The blades are frim Gesswein and have always been fine and the gauge is 24. Thanks, in advance, for any advice.❤
I found mine at a pound shop, but I've also seen it at a hardware shop and even at a craft store. It's a very thin tape and comes in various sizes (smaller or wider). I hope you'll be able to find something like this! ❤️
Hiya Lady Stardust, again, I knew I'd forgotten to ask something, so; the Knew Concepts, people say they will not use it as metal dust will drop into where the blade goes and block it up. Have you had any experience of this happening at all? Stay safe, Steve xx
I got it from a shop called Aldi (similar to Lidl and other chain markets). It's just a regular small bench vice, not a particular brand, with an opening of about 7cm. Many shops have them with different names and colours (I believe it's a basic tool sourced from China, that shops buy and add their branding).
Hiya Lady Stardust, Great video of your tattoo, flowers? Not my name, okay not Jareks name? Oh alright, the sawing first, yes, an excellent tutorial video Dear Lady, even after all these years I learned something. You really are so very good at this you know? I like that you quoted the rules, the three teeth etc, but also shared why you use the blade size that you normally fit. Talking of fitting, very good of you to show the 'Haymaker' is it? Anyway, not the Knew with that wonderful cam action. Showing three ways of lubricating your blade was good too, simple beeswax to engineered top-of-the-line, all work, and work well so mainly taste. Rather than fingers to apply the lube and get it on my hands, I use a broken blade. I've always used Swiss blades but I keep hearing how good the blades you had are so I may just have to try them and see how easy I can break them too. Oops giving away too many secrets now... So a wonderful video, well up to your usual standard of teaching. Thank you. Now about that tattoo? Stay safe, you two, Steve xx...
Oh true! Using a q-tip is another good way to apply the blade butter onto the blade. I'm very happy that you've enjoyed the video Steve! I was testing new set up with new lights, what do you think? As for the Swiss blades, I agree, these are great too! I've been using them before I started using Nano ones, and I liked them too. Thank you so much for watching ❤️❤️❤️
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithingthe lighting was so good I did not notice it. I'll have to watch again this time looking at the lighting and not the saws and blades. Steve...
It's much better than the basic adjustable one! Absolutely. I think you'll like it a lot, I found it especially great for straight lines, circles and larger shapes, where the line has to be as even and smooth as possible. I personally think this frame is easy to control. Has a good weight and changing blades is fairly quick. Overall, a good saw frame as an upgrade from the budget one.
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithing Great that’s good to know, I found the steel adjustable one gets in the way of my wrist, where the Haymaker doesn’t stick down at the back, and the Haymaker has more reach for larger work on sheets of metal 👍👍
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithingyet more teasing... If you could send me your address for postal packages, again, you can watch yours too. To my email? Steve xxx...

Can you do a video on different ways to hold things in place and at different angles to get a good solder
do you mean while soldering? Oh, I have some cool little tools and solutions to do that, I will show it in the upcoming videos :)
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithing ty i love your videos they are the best for learning. And yes while soldering
Hey Basia! Always love your vids and learn so much! I need your help, please. I am trying to make peices from brass and the darn saw blade just keeps sliding! Even with beeswax! I'm getting nowhere fast and have many pieces to make for a show in four days!😢😢 The blades are frim Gesswein and have always been fine and the gauge is 24. Thanks, in advance, for any advice.❤
ok this sounds silly question but what kind of double sided tape do you use?
the one I use is very thick and makes it harder to cut out a design
I found mine at a pound shop, but I've also seen it at a hardware shop and even at a craft store. It's a very thin tape and comes in various sizes (smaller or wider). I hope you'll be able to find something like this! ❤️
Sooo coolllll
Thanks so so much!! 🥰
I buy all their tools
can't blame you! :)) They're great
😊👍🏼💕
Hiya Lady Stardust, again,
I knew I'd forgotten to ask something, so; the Knew Concepts, people say they will not use it as metal dust will drop into where the blade goes and block it up. Have you had any experience of this happening at all?
Stay safe, Steve xx
Hi Basia, I need to make an elevate ben peg for sawing. Please could you tell me where you got your vice from or what model it is? Many thanks.
I got it from a shop called Aldi (similar to Lidl and other chain markets). It's just a regular small bench vice, not a particular brand, with an opening of about 7cm. Many shops have them with different names and colours (I believe it's a basic tool sourced from China, that shops buy and add their branding).
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithing many thanks Bastia for getting back to me, much appreciated:-)

@@TheArtOfMetalsmithingtease!!!
@@TheArtOfMetalsmithingthe lighting was so good I did not notice it. I'll have to watch again this time looking at the lighting and not the saws and blades. Steve...
Sorry what size do you use 2,5,8 ? Or /0 ?
My English is not good enough;p
btw thank you so much, your amazing 🤩
I’ve just ordered the Haymaker saw frame how are you finding it to use ,
Hope it’s better than the adjustable steel one.
