    I have been a Mould Maker for most of my 62 years of life and you have put together by far the best presentation on the hardening of tool steel yet. I have been shown since my early apprenticeship years, by experienced Journeyman Mould Makers, an unclear method of oil hardening our tools. You have explained it way better than it has ever been explained to me before! Thanks! i can't wait to get back in the shop and practice on some tool steel.

    Thanks for your insights.
    My maternal grandfather was a black smith. He told me he was apprenticed to three different men. In each case, when it came to performing a critical operation they would turn their back on him so he could not observe. Being a good student of the College of Hard Knocks, he went around them by reading books at the library. His understanding became greater than theirs. An unconfirmed family story is that he was the preferred sharpener of bits for the Mount Rushmore project because his bits stayed sharp longest of anyone's.

      +Dennis Goodrich Sounds like a classic case in job insecurity, if you ask me. Your grandfather was wise to glean as much from them as he could, which sounded like the very basics...and then educate himself with more pure knowledge unspoiled by opinions. They actually created a better blacksmith by trying to limit his development...nice.

    I work in the demolition industry and have cut ALOT of steel over the years (oxy/LPG, thermal lance, hydraulic shears) and love every minute of it. We are taught about heat affecting steel lifting equipment(chain, hooks, FSWR) in Rigging, so I have always been aware of the topics covered above in a broad sense, obviously for the safety factor. This video has just added another dimension to my way of thinking about the whole experience. Literally another dimension. Thank you so much for sharing your immense knowledge mate. Appreciate it.

    ...I'm investigating how to fabricate some spring clips to stabilise a baffle assembly in a telescope - and here I discover yet another youtube gem video. Thorough and clear, many thanks for an excellent video, a classic. I've watched many videos before this but none embed the presented phenomena and techniques in a rigorous empirical & scientific demonstration as your video does. A classic. Thanks kindly for your effort.

    I have just gotten into your videos and already I want to thank you for giving clear and simple explanations of fundamental matters in working with metal. Many of the CZcams videos give very poor explanations of the things in their titles and I'm not sure why people bother to produce them. Not all of us have fathers who worked forty years as machinists and not all of us have access to a fully equipped professional machine shop. Thanks again.

  • @sharkbaitsurfer
    @sharkbaitsurfer Před 9 měsíci

    That entire presentation is just brilliant, didn't need complex tools or measuring equipment and the visual differences are clearly identifiable, it's like advanced metallurgy for beginners, provided in a way that we can understand.
    You are an excellent teacher!

    Thanks a lot for covering this process so methodically and presenting it so absolutely clear. Its easy now for me to chose the best way of hardening and tempering the little anvil I am making with a bar of st 37k steel. I was under the impression that tempering after hardening was not needed. Now I know better. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.

    I've read about austenite, martensite etc. decades ago but now I really understand what it means. The 1-2-3-4 rod was really descriptive what happens inside steel when heating and quenching. This was by far the best educational video I've seen for years in CZcams. I have to check the other videos in your channel too!

    I'm not really a metal worker but in general working with steel and hardening has always been something I have been curious about. I looked through a few CZcams videos tonight and did not come away feeling like I have learned much, and in general felt somewhat disappointed in most of what I was finding. But then I suddenly found your video. After having watched all of your video, I now feel like I have actually learned something. I feel like I at least understand the basics now. Thank you sir for making this video. You are an excellent teacher and I feel happy to of (finally) learned something new today. I have saved your channel and I will return to watch some more of your videos later when I have more time.

I heard it was very durable steel and to better understand it’s possible application for a blade I have been looking at videos to educate myself on the basic properties of steel and it’s types of alloys. This is the best explained and most educational video I have found yet to introduce me to the basics. Thanks again, hope you are well during these times.

    Your talents are absolutely priceless.
