    Today I'll use my new heat treating / casting oven to cast an eagle head pommel out of german/ nickel/ new silver (whatever you want to call it). The blade is made out of 80CrV2 and the handle is out of dyed and stabilized beech. Hope you enjoy the video. I had a blast filming this one.

      @@NjordArtisan yeah, like DIY "river tables" were massive on CZcams and then came a wave of people with lathes make things from wood encased in resin or using resin to fill in holes and rot. But it quickly grew tiresome and cheap looking. There's a channel in particular that frustrated me. He exclusively makes black resin and wood tables that look basic and cheap. He polished them well and sells them for thousands. It's shocking.

    Hope you're catching that silver that you're sanding off. Always best to do as much of the shaping in the pre-cast instead of just making a general shape.
    Funny thing about casting- you basically have to just DUMP the metal into the mold, because every second you spend pouring is a second it's cooling down.

    • @NjordArtisan
      @NjordArtisan  Před 11 měsíci

      Yeah I learned that the hard way 😄 in part 2 next week it‘ll be even more apparent 😄
      It’s just called german/new/nickel silver because of the color. It’s just an alloy and not actually silver. But it’s still pretty expensive so I did my best to catch as much as I could

    Second comment cause I only just had time to fully watch the video!
    I could make you a pair of tongs at school if you'd like, only trouble with that though is actually getting them to you lol. Just some food for thought. Great puukko though, I'm going to have to actually get back into making knives (I've only made one and that was a sharp piece of mild steel flat bar). Also what was the sound track you used at the end of your Dagger Challenge video? Been looking for that track for ages, but I can't find it.
