FOR NEARLY 20 YEARS I WAS A JOURNEYMAN UNION IRONWORKER/CERTIFIED WELDER.I HAD TO GO OUT BECAUSE OF DISABILITY...THIS VIDEO BROUGHT BACK SO MANY MEMORIES,I SURE MISS IT.EVERY DAMNED DAY! BE SAFE &WATCH OUT FOR THE OTHER GUY.

I find both the brute force & the engineering behind it intriguing.

I like this version better. You’ve done videos similar to this before but didn’t have all the background info along with it which I think makes it a lot better and more interesting to watch.

*Calls itself "Top 5s"* *Every video Top 15s*

I'm mesmerised yet still confused - you don't actually show what any of them actually make and you keep cutting frames randomly!!

Why exactly is this in my recommended videos? And why exactly am I so enthralled with it?

I like how everything is so precise and so perfect but then some dude shows up with a twig brush to get rid of some scale.

I found this video interesting. I find all manufacturing and warehousing interesting. I've worked in a few heavy industrial factories. Didn't really like them because I'm very "gun-shy" when it comes to being around welding. It scares me. However I do think how things are made is interesting.

I know what you mean by gun-shy, I have a couple buddies like that, that arc that welders make can be intimidating, but just remember, as long as you have 4 or 5 shade glasses, and you are not right up on it without proper leathers, and a hood, you have no reason to be scared of it buddy!

Excellent video. Finally a content producer that presents quality videos within this genre. Thankyou for not being another click bait channel!

Absolutely mind boggling ,,also the amount of energy needed ,,doubt it came from solar or wind ,,what I want know is how the forms are made ,,like for those gears ,,and massive machinery

The world's largest counter blow hammer (at Ladish, now ATI) is about 2 miles away from me. When it's running I can hear it from where I'm sitting right now.

Charlie Sheen is at it again.

Surprised they didn't talk about induction. I have a client they run their rods through an electrical current, heats them up for pressing in a matter of seconds (also Germany also is known for making custom machines themselves for clients, I know of one, there are only 2 of the presses in the world). For the record that first step, gears can be done that way too (if there's a mold). (Actually surprised of my clients didn't show up in this ... then again it seemed like 1/2 were specific companies, and 1/2 were processes)

Sick thumbnail

I used to level steel coils. The coils came to the company I worked for already rolled. The machine I worked on leveled them out and cut them into sheets.

Let’s be honest, you didn’t search for this.

Pretty stupid rumor considering he plays Taylormade sticks.

Sotomo got a machine that I thought looked like Godzilla picking up a piece of the metal and placement from one area to another that was incredible

Listening to you explain this was making me yell at the tv. Most of those “hammers” are hydraulic presses. Also even though you saw the you didn’t mention how amazing Glama manipulators are. They make the largest forging equipment on the planet. I would know I work for the company with the largest free roaming manipulator on the planet.

I wonder how long it takes to heat a piece of metal like that 7:42. Some of those giant hammers would be a bit intimidating to stand by. Ntm the heat 🔥

Wow that’s hot

awesome video.

I remember the sound of the forge @ Bethlehem Steel until they shut down completely 😭 lots of people lost there pensions🙄

"Several segments are licensed."

Cool videos

Wonder what force the forging hammer that forges forging hammers forges with.

Great pictures and good narrative voice, Too bad we have to listen to statements that are wrong, such referring to casting techniques while showing ring forging or vague stupidities such as we go from "round steel pipes to the "complete opposite' - square bars.". Pipes and bars are not "opposite", just different shapes, as they are both still long lengths of steel but the piple is rolled up from a flat bar and welded (seamed pipe) and the square bar is merely hot rolled down from a thicker round or squarish billet. Different products, but no opposites! Why don't they consult a knowledgeable person to review the 'script' he's reading ? !!

He's obviously never heard of the skyforge steel, best forge in Tamriel

would be cool if one could figure out a type of reaction to keep steel in a perpetual state of being red hot but not melting away.. then make a fantasy sword out of that lol would be like super powerful against humans, even its proximity would do damage let alone coming it to contact with it.. but it would be very weak against hard alloy metals ect ect ect
