I liked the juxtaposition of the ancient craft of forging to the ultra-modern lawn-mowing robot!

Love the pitch and resonance of the bell. And the lawn robot was a nice touch as well as the garden "fly-through".

You never fail to impress. You are among my favorite here on youtube for overall quality of both blacksmithing and videography. Thank you!

Not to throw us all back a few hundred years but life would be so much more meaningful if we all used objects made by hand like this. Bring it back!

Very nice project! Your skills are well established at this point, so it's good to see some more of your personality in your videos. The calm nature of your videos and your personality really makes for a very enjoyable time watching!

I don't see how anyone can give you a thumbs down. Another great video and the bell sounded good. I enjoy watching you make things.

This channel is just amazing. The product has a soul a very talented Thunder Bear made this from hot steel and a hammer. The most amazing part is the precision that you have with a hammer. I just enjoy watching watching not only the backsmithing but the total care put into everything.

The garden scene turned surreal. I felt as though I was watching a scene from Star Wars or another sci fi film. Colonist guy on another planet out checking his crops as a robot trundles by tending to the more mundane task of trimming the verge! The mix of your old world knowledge and skills mingling with the use of advanced technology, performing a menial chore, is kind of a minor mind blow! I love your videos.

Beautiful forging and a robot lawnmower in the same video!? Pure genius.

You make it look so effortless, in blacksmithing and your grounds

Love the gardening break. It's a nice contrast to the forging, but also creating.

vous faites toujours de telles œuvres artistiques, cette cloche est le design le plus inhabituel que j’ai vu à ce jour, le plus impressionnant comme toujours M. Ahman.

10000 % man right here I'm adopting your plant planting after every successful and unsuccessful forging or woodworking etc

It must say something about the person who can make such a functional item into artwork,thanks for posting!

Really lovely job on that Thunderbear, what a lush garden too! Laughed out loud when you took a flight through the flowers! Good job!

My grandfather had a philosophy. Love what you do and do what you love and you'll be content. I see that in your videos.

The sound of metal is so pretty, and I love your garden

Beautifully done as always. Your flowers are beautiful as well.

Artfully forged, creatively documented. Another "saved" video in my growing TA archive.

As always, watching the process is a delight, and the finished product is beautiful.

Sono incantato da tanta maestria. Perfetto dominio del fuoco e della mano..... BRAVO

Aside from your skill, your choice of interests are reasons for enjoying your posts.

That has to be the most clever bell I’ve ever seen on YT.

Nice sound, great job, wonderful flowers

Beautiful flower bushes Sir. Also enjoyed watching the process of how to forge a bell.

Wow what a beautiful and simple bell

Mr Thunderbear, I only recently found this channel and have been marathon watching as time allows. Please allow me to say the thing that most impresses me is your materials management skills. Unlike countless others I have watched you don't forge a huge billet of material and spend forever grinding over half of it away as waste.

Beautiful garden and a great project, thanks for sharing

It strikes me (See what I did there?) that a major skill in smithing is understanding the volume of metal you are working with. At an academic level I get that the volume is easily determined mathematically, but to have the sense of how much metal to leave on that bar on either side of the clanger, so that it can be drawn out without any waste is pretty amazing to me.

It's not the place But the journey... it's not the finished piece but the tap tap tap in between with the beauty being rooted in the process - watching how you think... so easily that comes across Each and every piece emanates some bit of soul as well the videos do themselves.

Why is it so pleasing to watch someone hammering hot metal? :D

Very unique design of a bell, made to perfection. Great detailing by the good craftsman !!! And the bell sounds soo sweet!!

Pretty job. You always use boiled linseed oil, is there any reason why? When I was at school the metalwork teacher usually went for dirty engine oil to give the steel a semi weather-proof blue finish. May I suggest that when you produce these videos you them a difficulty rating. Your anvil really is a credit to you, simple measures to prevent unnecessary damage. Thanks for posting.

Decent and quiet Form. Very nice design for a Bell.

I absolutely LOVE that. Thanks from Mississippi!

I just wonder who the hell watches this video and unlikes it? I dont know any blacksmith that would dislike this, and if youre not into blacksmithing why are you here to dislike it in the first place?

I had to add two tons of compost to my garden beds to get them to look like your soil did BEFORE you amended it. Some people have all the luck!

I really enjoyed watching this. Thank you!

Waw it has 2 notes.. one quick high pitch, the other a prolonged deep hum. Never heard such a bell. Very cool!

Very beautiful design, thank you for sharing your story. God bless you and your family

Here's a cool project I did recently. Look up Skyrim horn candle. Or better yet play the game. I made a wall one from a water buffalo horn and forging a loop and wall mount. I also got a live flame light bulb and a wall socket with cord so I could plug it in. I can send you a picture in email or however other methods if you would like. It is very nice and a relaxing thing to have in like a room or shop or something. XX

I expect the temper to make a reasonable difference to the tone of the bell. It certainly does with bronze bells and cymbals.

I would find it interesting to see you make one out of a steel and hardening one side, would it make a difference? Or just making a small bell and have a before and after video after hardening to hear the difference in sound. Anyway thanks for the video, always enjoy them!

That clapper... amazing work.

What a beautiful bell sir. loved it.

And here I thought you were making a door pull for the new shop door, lol. I love the bell and watching you go through the process of shaping. You are a very multi-talented person. PS. that is the largest and nicest anvil I have ever seen. That must have cost you a lot.
