Tell you what Denis, what you do is amazing. I have no other words to describe your know how + not afraid to convey your techniques. keep it up bud. love the videos.
funnily enough I remarked on the last heat treat video you did saying I had seen it done in sand rather than metal shavings...... now I am wondering which one is easier? Thats a pretty impressive hole in the stainless pot..perhaps a cast iron one might be better
That looks tricky to forge. Why not just have a single flat spring act as a detent to hold the bolt in place? It only needs to stop it from slipping around right, so not much force needed?
Hey Denis, never thought of using sand on the forge, that's inspired! I have a vid about building a small tempering oven, I used it to make a similar spring out of a hacksaw blade for a flashlight. I'm going to try your method though, you can get graphite sheets on eBay which would handle the heat well.
I find myself looking for your next video for this lock. Its a privilege watching you.

Now it all makes sense! Great videos can't wait to see this thing finished. Define Your Legacy!

Great project.

Its a original way to temper. I never see that before. Great vidéo and i Wait the Next one. Merci 😉
Actually I borrowed this from the marquetry trade. They use hot sand to darken the edges of the wooden pieces for their inlay.

I've never actually seen anyone using the sand method to temper a part, it's pretty interesting stuff.

Just a thought could the smoke that was coming of the sand could it have been from the sand braking through the bottom as well
I don't think so. The sand had been cooking for quite a while so anything that would burn at that temp would have been long gone.
