Thanks to you i only do stainless cannisters now, i just started and did 3 with normal cannisters and that was a drama getting it off. Now i only use stainless and it peels of like a banana!!! That saves al lot of frustration and work!!!Thank you so much!!! Have a great day :-)

Thanks for sharing this experiment. I remember Tim trying stainless for the canister, and the additional step of scaling it with a torch makes a lot of sense.

Thanks Bryson. Yeah especially using a stainless such as 316 or something in that range of chromium content and lack of carbon. It will not weld to your billet. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the lesson, haven't tried canister yet and don't have a press, so wondering if it will work OK with a hammer?

@TonySeverioKnives

4 жыл бұрын

You’re welcome. Yes it will work but it’s a little more difficult. The press with squaring dies presses all four sides of the can at the same time to make the weld. This keeps the powder from possibly shifting and not welding. However I have done it with a hammer before on a smaller can with a hammer. Make sure to let it soak in the forge a bit before you hammer! Thank you for watching, I appreciate he support!

Thanks for the tips. I've been trying to make some Canister for a little while now. I keep getting better but so far i have yet to get a good billet. I'll keep trying keep learning and keep watching.

@@TonySeverioKnives Yeah the Stainless looks like it works great. I haven't had any problem getting the cans off. I've been doing the whiteout trick. My issue has been cracks in the billet. I don't have a press so It's just me and a hammer. Think I'll try to make a real small can and see if that works out better.

@TonySeverioKnives

4 жыл бұрын

Jim Valliere ahh yes big chunks can give you a fit. Usually cracking happens because the steel is getting too cold under the hammer. I work at nearly welding heat most of the process. If it gets under yellow heat put it back in the forge. My press is too small so it forces me to take small bites and heat often. The downside to re-heating so much is loss of steel. But yes keep it yellow to white hot under the hammer. If it’s cherry red it’s too cold. Once the billet is welded good and worked on all sides, it’s not so bad. The billet is thinner and moves with less force. Hope that helps!

I just had a thought... 302 stainless is a non-weldable grade. I wonder if anyone has tried using 302 instead?

It would probably work great. I find that the 316L works great however and I have a ton of it. 😁

LOVE the filler music! Very interested in your press. Is it air powered? I will subscribe and have a look around your channel to see it in more detail. Thanks for the video, I have wondered if sooting the inside of the canister with oxy-acetylene would also help? Have seen some people use Krylon white spray paint instead of correction fluid too. Haven't made Damascus this way yet as my is arm powered but I am going to soon. Have everything to do it with, just haven't yet. Thanks again for this helpful video.

Thanks! This is an old vid and I no longer have that press. It was air over hydraulic. Very slow, slightly effective. I built a 24 ton hydraulic press a while back that is much faster and efficient. Now I just use white spray paint inside the canister and it works perfectly. I haven’t posted a newer canister vid since this one but I do have plans for one soon. Thanks for watching and supporting my channel. 😁

great video, good info. I believe Steve Schwarzer uses stainless foil that has been carburized like you did the can. .

@TonySeverioKnives

Thank you. Yes Steve uses burnt stainless foil. I tried both in the experiment but my can worked better than the foil. However, the can was made with 316l stainless (no carbon) and the foil was 321 or 309. Carbon works against you on a can weld (it wants to weld or stick). So the foil I was using may have caused that. Steve is where I got the idea to use stainless. He’s the man!

Neat.id be interested seeing how your press works.

Can a guy get the same results with a power hammer if he doesn't have a press?

@TonySeverioKnives

I think so. I’ve set the welds with a hand hammer in a canister before. I would start with even light hits. You will feel it compress and solidify under the hammer. I’ve seen Steve Schwarzer do it on a power hammer and he pretty much invented canister welding and using burnt stainless foil.
