Neat! A tool to make Australia's 🎺. Thanks for sharing Adam!
Cheers mate
Great job Adam!! Wayne
Thanks wayne
When you re weld the anvil, pre heat it first to around 175-200 degrees Celsius. Then hold at that temp for an hour or so after welding before allowing it to air cool. Also suggest doing deep bevel and do your root and a couple of hot passes with 6010 or 6011, then finish fill and cap with 7018. Cheers m8! Great chisel ya made there. Look forward to the didgeridoo build...
It all fixed ha ha mig welded this time
Tiny, trying to get the day off of work again? Lol. Good show, mate! 👍👍⚒️😀
Thats quite a bit of coil spring straighten out voin on there. Looks like you did a great job on it. Hope your customer is happy!

Crawford out ⚒️🧙♂️
It was an effort ha ha
Now THAT is a specialty tool!
It is ha ha cheers
Great job. Next video, anvil repair 101 LOL.
I think you mean ASO repair ha ha
Great job, now for anvil surgery, nurse, get the grinder!
Ha ha nothing a bot of grinding and some gorilla snot cant fix!ha hab
Nice job Adam :) the Doo maker will be stoked. Don't be afraid to crank the amps up high and slow down the travel speed bro, that heavy stuff needs the heat for a good weld, if you lie it over and run down hand it will flow nicer also. Best of luck :) stay safe m8.
He was, and its fixed now ha ha
I saw you today in Ivey Forge and joined your team. Watching you here now Brother and look forward to seeing more.
Dont break your anvil!
Ha ha cheers mate. Hope you enjoy the content warts and all ha ha.
..sure would be nice to see the chisel in use. Good job on it!! Now, time to pull out a jar of that Gorilla Snot...!!
Would have loved to, but "tradecsecrets" and all ha ha.
Now I have learned something!
Thank you!
No worries mate. Cheers
Adam interesting video today forge on my friend
Thanks mate
Speargrass Forge ur very welcome Forge on
Wouldn't it be easier to make the chisel smaller and just make the handle out of wood and longer? I mean all that precious metal ... you just need that tiny itsy bitsy tip for carving :D Would love to see building a Didge from one of you Aussies. I have 3 myself. We also used a long file, and a rasp attached to a broomstick to clean the inner parts. Mine was made out of bamboo... not ideal, but it was a starter.
Oh absolutely the tip could be hardened steel and the rest could be mild. The point though is the weight. Didgeridoos are made from eucalypts and other australian hard woods. And they can be hard as Heck. So the weight if the shaft is needed to remove the wood as opposed to using a mallet, or burning them out.
Not a tool to make for a guy with really short arms...LOL. Another fun video Adam. Thanks...
Looks good but quite the specialty tool
That it is!
Yeah we totally got hosed on that deal. Thought we was gonna get to see ya use it! Nice job there anyhow Adam!
Ha ha i dont make didgeridoos ha ha
If you could have someone wire EDM through the anvil all the way through from top to bottom in at least two places, insert a rod of a close size and weld both ends, might be a good solution. Clean up the top with a flap disc. Bob's your Uncle!
The first welds held up for over a year. This time its migged. Hope it works for longer this time
That has to be the most beautiful didgeridoo chisel I’ve ever seen someone make. 😀
Its probably the only one you have seen made ha ha
@@SpeargrassForge Well, I was trying to be positive. ha Well done, brother.
@@SpeargrassForge btw - I remembered where my missionary friends are: Toowoomba, Queensland
