CZcams recommendation has got better.
Thank you thank you!
Thanks to CZcams I now know I wanted something I didn’t know about
Arya Asylum wait, was that an insult or a compliment?
Yup
@@Crawlerjamie why not both почему не оба
Don't know how I got here but i like it.
Same
Same
I was recommended here. Unknown as to why
Ssme
First step: Buy thousands of dollars worth of tools/equipment.
Some viewer feedback- the whistle sunshine music you’ve got playing it even louder than your speaking audio.
Cool video otherwise!
Got it thanks ✌🏼
@@MtPhillipMetalWorks you should change it to something else tbh
@@MtPhillipMetalWorks good content btw
Came here to say the same.
@@MtPhillipMetalWorks just try to Either turn it off when you are speaking or turn it down
_My body moves by instinct when your fingers are 2 close to the hot metal_
Haha
It shocked me too when he shoed at 0:50 the red hot metal and at 1:00 runs his finger across it. my god!
MikeOnBike his hands are like leather
That's a REAL blacksmith: leather-like hands and strong arms. x)
I was thinking the same! “You’re going to get burnt!!” Haha
I'm watching this tutorial but it's not like I can do this 😂
I like watching blacksmiths. My brother co oped with one and we could also watch them work at the Pioneer villages.
So most tutorials
Actually you don’t need super expensive equipment like this, you could do it with bricks wood and a hairdryer, you could use sandpaper for engraving like he did here. czcams.com/video/Fuk7Lw_uV5s/video.html
That’s awesome looking! But go a little quieter with the music please
When it still warm rub a brass wire brush. It will melt slightly leaving the meetal a golden colour. It look really good. I learnt that from a guy from the herberton historic village when i was on holiday there
after the grinder cuts it looks like to most brutal stake ever conceived... 10 out of 10 Vampires hate it
more like 0/10 not made of wood
would fuck up a person or a monster tho
@@hugglepuff1 the stake is actually to pin them to the ground so they can't rise.
Dino CZcams ad- “vampires hate him for this!!”
i want to die
Iron is deadly to a couple creatures, and is a repellent for some forms of undead. I imagine a pure iron stake would probably kill a vampire. You gotta destroy the heart, or alternatively you just have to chop off the head.
Don't believe @@ninboy01 , I tried iron and the vampire still killed my whole family. He's most likely one of them.
Yes!!!! More more more
Thanks Jim!
You should have said I want that
Why was this in my recommendations . . . ?
Whatever it does it looks cool. Very talented!

What do you mean "why was this in your recommendations"? Why wouldn't it be in your recommendations?
I am guessing you do not understand how YT recommendations work.
Hello. Blacksmiths wife here. This is a really cool twist. Well done. Ill be sharing it 😊
Thank you
I wanna see this implemented into something like a Chinese styled table with those but longer as legs, spiraling as they go down in order to support weight. That would look so cool!
Would look cool as heck thats for.sure. but would hurt like hell when you stub ur toe on it during a bbq
@@brandona4618 How did I know that this was going to be one of the things someone would reply?
@@Chop__. you must be as left footed as i am. 😂 im always smashing my toes on tires or car parts and other various items around the house😂😂
@@brandona4618 Exactly, I can't walk in the dark around my own home for fear that I will bang my toe on the corner of something!
You guys are lucky, I stub both feet.😅
Seeing tutorials like this really makes me wish I had the equipment to try it. And if I was to try something like this, I’d also try heat treating the scales to change their colour slightly. Would give it a unique look.
Awesome!! Very clear tutorial I think I can do it! now All I need is some metal and an entire workshop
And of course, a couple decades of experience? Haha!
Lmk when you get all that. I need the same stuff so I'll come over and keep you company lol
@@meshuggahdave5607
Hell yeah you're welcome to come over anytime... You'll just have to wait.. I don't know.. Maybe.. 80 years give or take..depending on the land I have to get for myself 1st to put my house on
@@gegasmeef7850 bet. I'll be older than 100 but metal craft is worth the wait. Lol
Out of all the blacksmiths ive watched, he's the only one who has the funkiest looking automatic hammer. I LOVE IT 😆
Beautiful result, I had no idea you could make this from 1 piece of metal
YES!!!
Since you put it up I've been trying to figure how it's done, and I feel vindicated that this is the method I'd come up with in my head. Going to have to try this out very soon!
Also, great video man, for your first one, this is super impressive! Can't wait to see more.
MoonshineMetalworks Awesome!!!
@@jeffallen3382 aye or you can go make your own blacksmithing yt channel if you want to make demands
@@sloth0708 hes trying to help the guy better his videos.
@@idk9637 there was no need for him to be rude about it though
Dude that looks so cool, now I have a new twist to add to my list, can't wait to try it out
Finally, something that is worth being recommended! 👍
That's badass thank you CZcams recommendations for finally doing something right
Thanks for watching Darren
@@MtPhillipMetalWorks thank you for uploading such an amazing video that gets you a sub
*It's great!!😱.* This channel has a lot of future. A greeting mate
Thanks for not adding a stupid intro that takes a whole minute.
"stay for the twist at the end", but seriously so good, so good.
I just wanted to thank you. I saw this vid some time ago and used it on rail stakes knives. Once it cools down i took it to an extras stump and used a wooden hammer to smooth the scales down. Then worked the blade. So much fun
Glad it helped!
I love art pieces where, if u just look at em, ya have to think "how the fuck did they made that", and this is definitely one of em. true art.
Thank you
Very interesting! That design could be implemented in so many ways too!
i personally can’t weld or blacksmith, but this shit was tight! i could watch this all day. the time and patience it must is crazy.
MORE!!!!! I need more of this kind of art, i'm starting slowly with my own blakchsmith workshop. I need to see moar!
That is awesome! I don't know what I'll do with this information, but cool!
That's so cool!
Idk what this is used for or what really to do with it but glad I saw how it was made.
Always love watching these kind of creations, especially when they teach people a new craft!
These particular ones were being made into bottle openers
Would make A wicked coathanger
With background music, some transition screens, etc. this video sets itself apart from all the other garage cam videos 🤙🏻
Well done
Thanks 👍🏼
Beautiful work and very well explained! This is the kind of detail that really attracts customers
Sick work brother! Great first video, keep rolling them out!! As good as any of the top CZcams smiths!!
Thanks Man!
Damn that is nice! I'm a silversmith that loves anything blacksmith/metalsmith. Now you got me wondering if it's possible to make that in silver...
Would silver be too soft for this type of forming? If it is possible it would look so good, maybe form a chain of scales etc
@@stuthhamster I've actually been going over it in my head. Thinking if I get the right amount of heat, I could maybe get those twists in but it would be more like one at a time or possibly two
Sure you could do this in silver, so long as you've annealed it.
@@MrTheweerobin Yeah, but it's the thicker part I was concerned about. I had a thought if I brought it up to a dull red on the thicker part, I could twist it nicely, then the thinner stuff would be easier annealed yah :D
@@Tactividz do you mean twisting the thicker parts while it's still hot? I'd be wary of working hot silver, it's super soft.
Revisiting an oldie but goodie. Hell job as always Chris!!!
Real nice work with metal. Will make a mental note as to try this later this week. Keep up the great work too.
Cool video! I have a great admiration for Blacksmiths :)
Very cool technique and such a fabulous dragon tail! And a great video!!
Figments Made thank you!
Beautiful effect and expertly done! I'll make one in the forge myself, so thank you for the tutorial.
Simple technique, beautiful result. Love it
Idk why I am here but I like it a lot
Cant believe watched the whole video and i loved it
Gonna have to save this vid to a playlist, that twist would make a gorgeous crossguard on a sword, thanks, man
Idk how anyone could give this a thumbs down 🤭 this was one of the most creative things I’ve ever seen done to metal. Awesome 😊
Found this down the You tube rabbit hole and I like it.
Glad you like it
That would be a sick design on a hilt for a dagger themed after a dragon or something.
Only down side would be it being impractical
Great opportunity for many changes...lots of twist changes ahead
Big Thanks
The modern master blacksmith to us digital apprentices, thank you!!
Damn dude thanks!
Great job Chris. That looks awesome man. So glad you have a channel now. It looks a lot easier than when you forge welded 12, 1" bars together at Matt's shop. Giving him the credit for showing you that technique...class act brother!
Thank you. 👍🏼
Chris, I was just about to ask if you came up with it. So you answered the question. Cool that you gave credit. That said. Well executed. This pattern is absolutely stunning. Great job on the video as well.
Thanks Man!
Most excellent you paid tribute to the guy that taught you! Keep up the good work! Nice pattern, I don't know what I would use it for, however cool never the less!
Perfect length of video. I'm excited to see more! Please post soon about fun techniques like this.
Workin on it 👍🏼
Well done Phil keep up the good work
I’m not a metal worker, I’m a carpenter, however it’s something I am ready to learn.
Awesome!! i did a video on this about 7 months ago and then re did it about 5 months ago... i have been looking for others who do it as well, I called it the SharkTooth Twist because i couldn't find anything with a reverse image search!! good job man!
Awesome Video man!
CZcams recomends scored big today.. Thjat was hella cool. I,d like to see a finished art piece using that concept.
Very good sir. Thanks for uploading
Hi as a beginner blacksmith I’m hoping you upload more twist like this it would be very helpful to have online quick tutorials
That was awesome! Do some more videos please!
Workin on it! 👍🏼
All of those dislikes are from dragons
This absolutely epic! Thank you for sharing Sir
I like taking railroad spikes and twisting them with different designs and using the twist as handles for knives that I make from the railroad spike. Awesome a new way!
Thank you! 👍🏼
Thought you looked familiar, ive bought blacksmith tools from you! Good to see you're making videos man
Thanks Man, fairly new to all this stuff will figure it out soon and get the videos out! 👍🏼
Pretty cool, not really a fan of it being crooked but I can see how it would be difficult to straighten without deforming it. All in all its still a cool effect.
Thank you for the demonstration. Very cool twist....
Good stuff. I learned the hard way with twists. My first was a twisted handle for a rail spike, started at the top, it was all wonky and uneven lol. Learn and go!
Great video! Keep it up!!!
This was the odd one out in my recommend but I like it!
Im super excited to try this after i learn how to blacksmith( well after i get some more experience with easier tasks of course still exited about learning though!)
Dude I can watch this all day lol
I love dragons!
I’m intrigued
I really dig your subject matter and the work is awesome! I have to say for posterity that the whistle music was a little distracting. Honestly though, I don't think that makes your video any less cool. Great work supreme artistic skill!
Also, you're fire is incredible. That went to red hot in less than a second!
Im sorry about the comment, I didn't see that the whole world mentioned the music.
Bad ass tho
This is amazing man. Saw your video on Facebook. Your shop is awesome. I'm going to try this someday because of this video.
What a cool effect. Nicely done.
Imagine building some parts of a dragon then build it thogether
Thank you very much CZcams recommendations
Thanks for watching! ✌🏼
Awesome Love the scale factor and will definitely be using this on some of my future stuff to come
This is awesome! I could think of all applications!
That would make a bad ass double sided sword guard
Astonishing...Pure art
Thanks
Good tip about where and why to start the twist.
Very cool. Cant wait to try and make this one day.
I do alot of diff twists even kinda made one up my self but that is bad ass!!
That would look badass as a shifter in a ‘57 Chevy chopped roadster
That's very specific
Yup. Just a project in my head.
Gary Busey very nice choice tbh I really like imports like the nsx but I do like the old chevys
Finding this was unexpected, but surprisingly enjoyable
Such a peaceful music for an epic craft
Reminds me of the Gundam Epyon so cool!
Awesome craft dude. Love it! Subbed.
Thanks Man!
Dude, that's awesome! I'm going to try to recreate that in brass, I think making that without the taper, then cutting it in half, I could make a great bangle!
That is awesome and simple I can't wait to do that thanks
That is just too cool
This looks soo badass. Looks like skyrim dragonbone armor😂
This is so fucking cool! I saw this video randomly when you first posted it, and just randomly came across it again.
That looks badass when it's glowing
Hear that? Thats the sound of me throwing my pineapple twists into the scrap in disgust. Hats off to you!
Not sure what a dragon twist is, but sure looks cool.
My friend shared this video to me...and I'm so happy they did
Awesome thanks for watching!
Looks fantastic. It shows class giving the credit to your teacher. Keep it up man!
Thank you 👍🏼
i love how it plays this generic wholesome song in the backround as if anyone can do this
You're A Metal Wizard
🙏🏼
Wow neat video. I love these kinds of vids, plus youre quite lovely to listen to. Very informational!
AND YET ANOTHER EPISODE OF WHY THIS IS ON MY RECOMMENDATION!!!
