    In this video, I take a more in-depth look at the process of forging a human skull from a 1.5" x 1.5" steel bar.

    Wow, killer my friend. I wish it was a bit more in depth when you did the chisel work. Explaining where to start and how to move the metal.

    Honestly Rob I think you make some of the best chiselled skulls found anywhere.

    I'm enamored by your skill and demonstrating with simplicity that which is beyond most of us. I'm 75 years old and just beginning this new hobby and your videos are encouraging and inspiring! I look for ideas and techniques to do things but try to avoid copying someone's work other than in part on the first trial run in which I decide if I can do something. Please keep up the GREAT work!

    I would not classify myself as any kind of artist. Occasionally creative with materials and I've made a few things in my life that I am proud of, but many more of my efforts have resulted in personal dissapointment than success. I've tried a few times to carve in metal like this and am happy to stand behind my efforts and say I got the result I wanted even if they are rough. I even created a decent anataomically correct skull in clay once as part of a school project. This video makes me jealous that my best ever effort comes nowhere close to this final outcome. As it is Thak, I'll quote some rock lyrics to show my appreciation. "The blacksmith and the artist. Reflect it in their art. They forge their creativity. Closer to the heart. Yes closer to the heart." In my mind Rush was the greatest band ever, and this video made me immediately think of those lyrics. Thanks Thak, I enjoyed the blacksmith and the artist in this video.

    Always cool to see you do a skull.
    The music was fine, just a little loud at times

    That's beautiful! I'm going to try one as an integrated 4 speed shifter handle and knob for the Muncie in my 53 F100. Maybe curve, sculpt and shape the shaft into a spine.

    I love the skull work. I have pretty much stuck with 1/2 in square for mine. less detail needed.

    Fantastic as always. I was gonna ask where the cheesy music, is but we got a few seconds at the end. Keep it up !

      Oh my god I forgot the music! Glad you enjoyed the video :)

  • @NonSleeper_Occasional_Thinker

    loved watching your process!

    That is a lot of metal to move by hand. The results look fantastic though, the extra detail really makes it stand out on another level.

    Wonderful piece. It would make a great mace head. A skull for smashing skulls.
    And nice video as always, a little short though.

    • @ThakIronworks
      @ThakIronworks  Před rokem

      It was a bit shorter than usual, but it's a subject we have covered fairly well at this point and I see no reason to draw the video out much longer than it was. Glad you enjoyed it!

    very cool, not something I have ever tried although I have an idea of how difficult it is. If some one didnt want to pay your going rate for the work you do I would say ...more fool them.

    I tried forging a human skull, but the guy screamed the moment I put his head in the fire. Any advice?
