Hot Cut Chisel From Coil Spring
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Making a chisel from an old coil spring from a car, a good project to start on if you are just starting out with blacksmithing!
My name is Timothy Dyck. I got hooked on blacksmithing when I was 13 years old. I quickly realized that in order to keep blacksmithing I needed money to buy costly supplies, so I started making small items and selling them at the local farmer markets. The farmer markets turned into craft shows and craft shows turned into custom projects. Right out of high school I had the opportunity to apprentice under a blacksmith, where I worked with him for four years. We did projects for some of the most prestigious houses around the rocky mountains and were apart of many large public sculptures. I learned many valuable lessons while working under his training, but the desire to set up my own shop and go out on my own was always something I dreamed about.
So in 2013 I started setting up my full time blacksmith shop out of BC, Canada making custom projects and products like railings, gates, lights, stairs, fences and all the many blacksmithing tools required to keep the blacksmithing shop running. I love what I do and this is my dream job. I enjoy showing you what's going on in the blacksmith shop through the lens of a camera and would love to have you along for the ride as I live out my dream of being a blacksmith in the 21st century.

Mahalo Tim! I heat treated four tools tonight in this exact method. I usually get 3-4 temper cycles.
Three strikes and a cool? Like in the end of the video?
MAN I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND YOUR PERSONALITY !!!!!!!

very good video now I know what to do with the coil springs my son gave me . and thanks for showing the chisel in action
Great job as usual! Keep it up.
I just wanted to say thank you, this is a brilliant video, and your instruction was clear and concise, but most of all, as someone starting out blacksmithing, I can really appreciate the wisdom of what you said about making your own tools, so thanks again. Subbed.

Thank you!
You are making awesome videos
Looking good
Moving the piece while quenching mitigates against the Leidenfrost effect. I've never seen anyone harden and temper using your method. Very interesting.
Nice beginner project. Simple enough for guys like me who'd eventually get into it. About the indentations for the fingers, I thought of that a few seconds before you mentioned it. Except that I figured enough indentations for all the fingers. Of course, it'd have to be longer than this.

Nice idea, I like it let make sure to show pictures when you get it all made up! :)
@Tim, would you consider making a steel file or rasp? It would be very interesting to see how that is made especially the hardening and tempering!
Thanks for another awesome video Tim!

maan, u could really make a video making an axe/tomahawk drift! im planning on making a tomahawk, and using a chisel is great for losing less material! but i dont know how to shape the eye, so that would be great. fantastic video as aways man. best yt channel by far!!
Finally got some coil springs! Rewatching before trying to do. Question: Why an octagon shape on the struck end?

I mostly use Tyrolit these days. I find they are the best quality vs value. Best quality abrasives are Walter by far. But you pay a lot for them... Hope that helps.
Great video, except for not cooling the tool when you demonstrated it at the end, but great explanations thank you.
Tim what's that square hole in the side of your anvil? A blowout? Or does/did it have a purpose?
The tang on that file looks like its red hot lol
What colour do you use for hardening
To explain the heat treating just explain a prince Rupert droplet... its literally the science behind that... that gives metal its hardness..
Tim. Three hits then cool it off Hits it 38 times without cooling it off
Hey Tim. It is nice and relaxing to wach your Videos ( except wreking und shooting stuff) but realy nice Work. Can you please try to show us how Letters and Numbers Marks are made? I mean Like your T Mark ( stamp, don't know realy the Name of the Tools). That would be awesome. Thank you
hey you should only do three hits at a time before cooling this off *proceeds to hit it 38 times without cooling chisel*
Nice tool, but the first time you used it you made approximately 40 blows without ever cooling the cutting edge down...lol By the way, that is exactly how I make my chisels and punches and the material that I use for them!

Doesn’t matter if it’s staying a hot cut. It will only matter if it’s used as a cold cut chisel.

Yes but that makes the hardening and tempering an unnecessary step if you're going to loose the temper in use anyway. Think his point might have been 🙂
Hey! You made a Cheetos. Yum.
Using a hot cut tool to make another hot cut tool... 🤭😳😱
Sorry but a hot chisel should be made in WWS so there is no HARDING needed. All your work wasted ones you keep it to long on the hot bar. I normally oilhard my springsteel
