That is game changing.

Now that is awesome!! You're on to something there!!

You guys have bad ass forging skills and machines!

This is awesome 👍 and you are very jenius. This is so beautiful and very nice. I have never seen anything like this before. (Smoke coming out from my brain.)

That's crazy cool

I’ve been wondering if anyone will try out a 3D pattern, filling the inner cavities mid-print. It would be a terror to work with but it could potentially introduce some really cool pattern geometry to work with. Imagine alternating alloys inside of the gyroid infill, lots of spheres or other shapes.

Seen this before with 3d laser shark cut steel, that you could slide in to the block of same pattern it was cut from. Think maybe surap or FZknives. was where I saw it at.

Does the 3D printed pattern get removed before welding? Or does it burn out like a cast?

@BakerForge

So the 3D printed filament is fully biodegradable and comprised mostly of cornstarch. Hence it burns up, turns to carbon and is absorbed into the steel during the forge weld

@@BakerForge how thick are the walls of the 3d printed form? I was wondering if the pattern shifts at all once the form is burned away or is the powder metal packed in well enough that it kind of holds it shape if the makes sense? Regardless that is incredibly awesome ol Steve schwarzer does some incredible things with metal and knives. I appreciate Baker Forge & Tool for taking the time to share this knowledge with the rest of us. Great job guys!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 💪+🔥+🔨+💧=🗡

What filament are you using???

Did you have to have a releafe hole for gasses to escape?

@BakerForge

Yes we do, a tiny pin hole in the top of the can near the handle.

Great job. Did you use PLA or ABS or an oser type of plastic?

Thank you! Gotta use PLA for this so it'll absorb into the steel and not create voids

Did you do any prep work to the canister to come off easier?

@BakerForge

2 жыл бұрын

We sure did. We put the empty cans in the forge to scale them on the inside. Then we also used toasted stainless foil sheets inside between the powder and the walls of the canister.

So was that an plastic mold and if so what kind? Also what 2 powders did you use on the leaf that was sharp.

@BakerForge

It was a 3d printed mold using PLA filament. The powders are 1084 and 1084 with 2% nickel added.

@@BakerForge awesome thanks for the reply!

design a pattern and have it printed out of metal that way you can fill it with metal powder of a different alloy weld a cap on and forget about using the cannister method

I'm a little confused by this still. This is the second video I've come across on it and turns out so cool. When I normally see folks do canister forging one of the main things it keeping impurities and air pockets out from between material. How is the burnt Fillamanet (pla?) isn't causing lamination issues?

The PLA is biodegradable and so when it burns, it turns to carbon and is absorbed into the steel. (Vanishes)

@@BakerForge Huh, interesting. Have you tried any metal fill pla then? I wonder if the powder content is high enough to give you a different color outline in addition to the actual image and back ground.

Looks like the organic shape of the leaf worked the best. A little random wiggle from the pressing just adds to it.

What powder steels are you using? Looks awesome man

Please buy a 3d printer that prints metal. Then please try two things: 1.print the whole canister out of two different metals at once and then forge it, by fully printing the canister as one solid piece of metal you can use 3d modeling software to insert your shapes anywhere you choose into the canister, not just form one shape with powder. 2. Attempt to directly print out a billet of Damascus and etch it to see if it worked properly. If it doesn’t work, try adding steps to stabilize it,
