Looks like Eoin sent a lot of us, I live in the antipodes (Australia) but have old school friends and some family around Kilkenny. Oh and I enjoy blacksmithing, learned a bit on the old farm I grew up on in the 60's.

Heard about your channel from Eoin. Your work looks amazing.

Your ideas/designs seem so unique compared to those I see here in USA...perhaps they are more traditional in your part of the world. Never the less, a fascinating project and a wonderful demonstration of your skills. You make the forge welds look so effortless! Loved this...

Thank you, my training was based in the UK under two master blacksmiths. The handle is based on one of the methods I was shown by Master Blacksmith Paul Allen.

That nice chap Eoin sent me here :) I love watching proper craftsmen doing the things I wish I onew how to!

Eoin mentioned you; as I do both woodwork and smithing, I thought I would join and see what you do! Nice selection of tongs you have there.

another who came by the Eoin path, checking in. A bit sad not to hear your voice at first, but the clangs and dings of ironwork are beautiful as well. Looking forward to watching your content!

I'm glad Eoin recommended you, this looks like some good content here my friend.

Honestly, I don’t wanna be that guy, but I would love if you did shorts similar to your friend since a lot of the people that watch him don’t understand a lot of the woodwork so he kind of dumbed it down into shorts. Love the vids!

Amazing work, i do wonder how old his forge is, i havnt seen alot but i do like to learn the history behind things like this.

@oconnorblacksmith

16 күн бұрын

I'm a Blacksmith of 8 years in the craft - traditional ironwork. My forge isn't much, but it's enough to allow me to create, I worked my fingers to the bone to earn what I've got. Most of my tooling would have been early 1900's and bought from older forges across Ireland and the UK. 😊

Do the little sparks that come off the metal hurt if they touch your hand?

@oconnorblacksmith

15 күн бұрын

Yes, that's the forge scale. It likes to stick to the skin, but it doesn't stay hot for very long, and it doesn't happen often. During certain forging operations, I'll use a leather glove, but it's not always needed. I find it safer to use my bare hands for most tasks. 😊

Nice forge welded handle to tines, did you use a flux for that or do you just rely on a good hot temperature?

@oconnorblacksmith

7 күн бұрын

I learned how to weld without the use of flux, just a good welding temp is all you need. Unless I'm welding high carbon steels, you need flux for that.

Pretty cool video but I cant help and wonder why the choice to film it vertically. Maybe it’s just me but for longer videos vertical is the better choice, especially as I am one of them PC folk.

How did you do a forge weld without rust building up? And why didn't you split the end of one piece of metal into multiple spikes? I know absolutely bugger all so please don't think I'm criticising lol just curious

I'll do a video sometime explaining! It was much faster for me to fireweld the pieces, plus I just love welding in the fire 😁🔥🔥 I'll do some chisel work in my next video! 🔥🔥

Why do you tap the hammer on the anvil?

@oconnorblacksmith

11 күн бұрын

To be sure it's paying attention! 😄 Honestly, I do it without thinking. Sometimes, it's because I'm changing hammer grip, position on the hammer shaft or swapping to the peen on the hammer, it can be to keep a rhythm - when changing the force I hit white while carefully examining my piece. Every hammer blow is calculated, and each one counts! 🙂 I hope that makes sense!
