Glad you’re back in action! Be sure and religiously do any PT they give you for your shoulder, and do the same exercises on the un-injured side, simultaneously if possible, body mirroring will help the injured side try to emulate the good side and helps recovery!

That is looking awesome! I can’t wait for this series. You are one of the main guys that has inspired my own metalworking journey

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience on bronze processing!! Greetings from Russia! It’s a pity that you don’t have many views there, your channel deserves a million subscribers!

I like these more technical/descriptive videos. Thanks for all the hard work you and your team do to put out these videos for us.

One of the best channels

My brother was a coach builder and used a dressmaker's tape except for longer measurements Great for measuring around curved and round forms. I used to keep one in my toolbox also for circumference measurements in my fitting welding job Alot more versatile than a metal tape Great video 👍

Hell yeah! That is so rad!! So excited for this series!

Love your work

Thac, the seven foot tall bicycle hoplite gladiator Hobbit!

Always good to see your abilities to transform a disk of material in to an amazing 3D piece. Thanks for sharing your time & knowledge

Great video, love seeing your work, I learn something every time. Very satisfying watching you work in the lines in the helmet, thanks for sharing this with us! (Oh yeah missed thumbnail opportunity at 14:09 😁)

Thank you for taking your time and explaining the technique you are using o/

Easily one of your best videos yet. Very informative as to what methods and tools you use. In the past, I’ve found myself pausing your videos so I can get a good look at the tooling you use and I have to make educated guesses. This format helps quite a bit. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the rest of the series!

What a great talent!

Amazing work bud!

Great job and video sir. I hope the rest does come soon from a watcher's view. Glad that it takes you a long time though from a business view.

Awesome work man 👍👍

Really impressive

Exciting new project. Looking forward to how it comes together.

Greetings from Croatia!!! Will you make a full body armor for Gladiator??

Awesome project - can't wait to see more of it!

In my ignorance, i think that this is the standard process of making armor, back in the old days: an heavy doming of a very thick ingot (which joined two stages of work, the thinning and the doming of the piece), then a quick raising to adjust the shape and then adding details; what do you think about it?.

yes!

sick!

so. many. hours. hitting metal :O

Going well.. I'm impressed. what is the "pitch" you use to support the lion head while cold forging?

🤘

Let me ask a question:Why you are feeling need to do it by your hand? For example, using my hydraulic press, I can craft same thing in half hour and save my shoulder

phew, its going to have a lion head, thought for a moment the camel toe was going to make another appearance................ great vid and great work, great to be busy, glad you found some time to make stuff your soul needs

Why not raise it with thinner stock as it will thicken some? I started helmet making then delved into blacksmithing so by no means an expert. Is this for Sca or just for something else?

What country won't you name, and why?

I have a camel toe tool myself, but it's not used for hammering per say...........
