I honestly expected the cube to go flying

Love it!! Maybe, Test that die to see if it favors higher numbers. LOL

Thank you very much. I did give it quite a few throws and it did not seem to have a favourite side, although I would not sell any of them to casinos or avid monopoly players just in case.

Good video and nice simple forging projects. You need to take care when quenching pipe as hot water and steam tends to shoot out of the end not being quenched. Stuffing a rag in that end can help prevent injury.

thank you for the advice! I will do that.

Great for those beginning in blacksmithing and can use hand tools with no problem. I particularly like the bookmark.

Thanks for the ideas for beginners. Every time metal is moved we’re learning more about how it behaves & how to use the tools we have. You’re the first blacksmith I’ve seen working copper pipe- that really opens up a whole new avenue, great look with the hammered finish too 👍⚒️

3 great useful projects Joel, you make it look so easy..😍

I really liked those projects....well done

Onya mate, get stuck in! The craft of smithing will never die but it needs guys like you to keep the interest alive. You try, you learn, you discover and you share! Hey, everything including a simple pick-axe needs someone to come up with the idea and make the first one! The tool develops from there, just needs a idea to get started!

What size copper pipe did you like for the bookmark project?

I think it was 12mm but you can use any size you want.

And how will these help every day life

What did you use to twist it?

@@The_Nailsmith For a beginner I would suggest getting the following : an angle grinder, a drill, a set of files, a vice and a stick welder is a good investment.

Omg thats ALOT of work for a page"thing"...

good time wasters. not practical though. none of these projects are worth the time put into making them. If The budding black Smith was try to practice making things to sell one day I wouldn't recommend any of these projects.

Hello Daniel, as a family we are acutely aware of time. Fighting poly-autoimmune diseases, the debilitating effects of a stroke and cancer, means I (Joel's mum), have to spend too much time in bed. Joel made the die and bookmark for me. Definitely not a waste of time. Everything that he makes is functional perhaps not to your standard but nonetheless, he is not deterred from trying. That is essentially his message to others....go ahead and try. Have a good day Daniel.

@@penelopedavids-austin6384 I didn't say it wasn't cool or a bad way to try and hone a person's skill. Sorry I wasn't trying to be offensive. Was just saying if you were making stuff to sell the time spent and material assuming you weren't just using scrap would be cost prohibitive.
