Helping hands tongs! Love them. Great stuff, thanks for haring your journey.
You bet!
Wonderful show as usual always try new things because even in failure there's the success of experience
Clapping your little hands made me happy as hell
Four dislikes? Who in the hell would dislike this video? Obviously people who have never tried to make canister Damascus let alone Drill bit canister Damascus. Amazing man!
I love your tongs, they look quite handy.
Woohoo!!! Awesome! Email is sent, Tim. Thanks for the "congrats", guys!
Man those pickup tongs are so bad ass, I'd love to buy a set.
All ways interesting thank you
Love the tongs
new subscriber. love your videos, and humor. keep scrappy and Floyd busy.
Thanks for the sub!
Nice video Big Dog, I learned a lot. Thank you, look forward to see more projects.
love the little hands on the tongs
Thanks for taking the time to show us what you do, entertaining and educational
Nice tong heheheh i love it
Congratulations James McMillan
..Congratulations James !! and the Other James,.. aw heck all the James's. What better thing to make with drill bit damascus, a drilling hammer... Good job Tim...!!!
Congrats James!!!
Tim, great job on the second drill bit Damascus. Congrats James
I love the little hands forged into those tongs you're using on the press lol, great creative touch, I might steal one day!!! you're videos are great, I wish I lived close to other smiths like you!
Big Dog I love the tongs. The clapping was a nice touch.
Those hand tongs are just hilarious!.
HAHA love the little hands on your pickup tongs.
The hand headed tongs tickled me good! owf my sides !! Subscribed for more hand tongs adjusting billets!
I wish I knew you personally. You really seem to be a good decent man who I'd have been proud to have as a friend. I'm going to become a patron because of the quality of your videos. I always learn something each time. 👍🏻
Really enjoyable to watch. thx
Nice, Great job. Thanks for sharing......
I LOVE the little hands LMAO
In love with these handy-Tongs
Thanks
The tongs! I enjoyed watching them in use here more than I enjoyed watching you make them. XD
I wouldn't mind working with a billet of this, though I'm a Damascus snob and naturally think mine is the best lol. Great work, sir.
Thanks 👍
Congrats James.
Very nice!
Always enjoy your videos Tim. Keep them coming.
Yea, those tongs!! Had me lmao!! Love it!!
They are awesome! D:
I have a shit ton of them kind of bits, awesome now i have a use for them.
Glad to see you still have a helping hand LOL
Very interesting! Nice Job.
Hi Tim. I love your work and your sense of humor is wicked. I subscribe to both you and also Alec Steele who is from England like me. It would be great to see you guys collaborate on a project because he also likes Damascus. Thanks Tim .
The music is a nice touch!
Excellent video neighbor you just live up the road from me about 3 hours depending on traffic, love all your videos and your excellent
Very interesting and very fair thanks tim
You should make a shovel out of the auger Damascus btw lol
That pattern is awesome, that would look good on a small hatchet or viking style axe
Awesome result and very nice vid. Liked and subbed !!
The tongs that you used to square up the billet are great!
Great video. Love the hands tongs! You should try twisting a long basket and put that in a canister.
How is he touching that with his bare hands?!?!😱
Really good content 👌
another good vid! always enjoy your vids and the work that you do! keep it up man
I primarily stick with what works but it's great to experiment so hopefully one of these days I get to meet you and give you a bunch of carbon steel cable to pass on or do with as wished then there's a few more different kinds of metals that you might really be interested in some of them got a lot of nickel in there towards non-ferrous anymore if they're real hard to work with
Great work Hoss. I hit the thou
those tongs are amazing XD
You've got some pretty tough hands... Just grabbing that red hot steel like that
As always Tim your ambition to try anything to see what sort of pattern you get . This is something I really like to do here at my shop. The exciting thing is when you put it in the etch and pull it out to see what got birthed from the experiment.. Martin
I love those handy tongs
I love this video!!!
BD nice work..
Thanks Tim, I saw some squares in the pattern from the end pieces, just wonder what the pattern would be like if it was forged sideways instead of end on?
Ahh, watch out for your hands 😉
those hand tongs are so cute hahha
Annealing the bits beforehand helps.
That sucks. I was excited at pattern possibilities with the multiple twists
Cliffhangers are good! That new billet looks really good!
your tongs with the hands are hands above all the rest. even if they don't hold the best you can cup them and use on round stock if you make them for sale i know the will sell love your vid. be well and be safe
cockatoobirdman bill I was thinking the same thing! Those would be sold out in no time! I think even non-blacksmiths would enjoy them as a piece of art!
You bet just think about using to turn hot dogs on the grill and you are right they are art, and you can tell your friends that you can put your hands in the fire and not get burned lol!
Yes it always cracks me up to see those, I love it when the fingers get red hot.
Love The tongs
it makes sense that the HSS bits nearly shatter when you break one & those auger bits just try to rip your arm off
nice demonstration there proving that theory of non compliance in workability
but, I have recently been working with some HSS structural steel that is special order and need to try some blade testing with it
i need those hand tongs haha
Never knew you had 4 hands!!! The tongs are hilarious and functional!
The new piece of damascus turned out great! It'll make a really cool hammer!
I am going to be "trying" to make the mokume gane and I thought that I bought copper shim stock, but just the canister was copper.
The roll inside the canister is silver shim stock! I know that you are using the silver solder and this will be perfect for your bandsaw blades, it's 3/4" wide and.002 thick I believe.
I'm not going to be using that much of it as it's a high % of silver and I don't know if I'll even be able to make the mokume lol...
Take Care bud and email me when you get some time
love the tongs
It was funny enough when you made the handy tongs, but this was next level funny stuff. Damascus came out cool, I think it deserves better than to be a hammer.
Hey mate good commentary on the video keep up the good work
I like the hand and fingers on your tongs
Wow, really late to the party! I got super excited when I realized that you were making a billet for a hammer.
A couple of thoughts about the high speed steel:
1. I know many high alloy steels like high speed steels have to be kept at high heat for long periods of time during heat treatment. This is because of the exotic elements need more time to form carbides and such. With that logic you might need to let high speed steels sit for longer at higher heats if you decide to try something like that again.
2. It could also be that the steels were too dissimilar to each other. Think forge welding stainless with more simple steels. At the very least the expansion rates would create difficulties.
3. Next would be who made the steel. I remember in the early 2000’s people were trying to put cheap tools from places like China or India into their pattern welding but it would fail. Could be many reasons but the quality of steels could be a problem for some materials you put in your billets.
Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for the info. and thanks for watching.
Still in the process of chopping that stuff up it takes forever and so hard to cut with the factory grease in it
Regular everyday drills are normally M2 or some other nasty stuff - heat treating temp for M2 is 2250 degrees - that's its 'critical' temp. The wood augers, at best, were 4340 or something similar and will forge weld at about 1800 deg.
Not surprised they wouldn't weld but it would have looked cool if it worked.
Put metal shavings in a watch how nice it comes out!
I really like the look ..would you lose or gain more pattern by folding it?
Hey there "BIG DOG" love your vids they have inspired me to have a go at blacksmithing..
I was wandering if you could try heating the drill bits before they go into the canister ? Just a thought I will now subscribe again excellent work and very inspiring
Your assistant has very small heat resistant hands. Good find.
Nice video how much Pressure can this press build up in tonns ?
the hand tongs lol
Nice video! Got me to scribe
You rock
You had me at Forging a Burnt Oatmeal Cookie.. ROTFLMAO
If it was me I'll be thinking about high carbon steel crane cable, is the quickest you can pull out something that will do the job
It looked like wormwood Damascus lol
I tried to forge a valve stem once that came apart like that
Pretty
Awesome all around, the tongs,the billet, but mostly that cobalt blue bottle in the background... is that Valhalla Brew, Odin's Ale? My wife and grandson found me a bottle of that about a year ago. Sadly,it was empty when i got it.
Fill the canister with iron filings?
Do you have a video on the tongs that you are using to make this Damascus
Yeah Tim once those drill bits get reheated again they turn to a crumble I heard it was some how to do with nitrogen
great video, just shows not all metals can be reworked
Hand tongs!
You should make a climbing ice pick so you can do another cliff hanger 😂 badum tss
Gratz James. And thanks Tim for sharing the end result. I am looking forward to your next projects and a Dog tag! 😇
Sweet Glasses there.. Who makes them? Would Love to get a pair
Just a learning experience as I see it. For somebody with NO experience that is good.
Not the high speed steels fault...The coatings on drill bits can be a plethora of things and they won't let the steels inside fuse together.
great billett that should make a nice hammer or knife by the way can you use oxyclean as a flux for welding big bear forge said he never tried it but told me to watch out for out gasing fumes fron it when heated thx
