u do see him getting burnt a few times tho. my my younger days when working with a crew i was holding a metal pipe for something when they where grinding it fucking burt alot when the red hot flakes of metal goes down your neck or eats away at your gloves..
The most amazing part of this video is that he was able to overcome his handicap. Being left-handed and still doing all of these things is truly inspiring!
If not for else, these videos serve as an excellent demonstration just how much of a difference even the simplest, crude, rough forged metal tools make compared to wood and stone.
Not only do you have good quality content, but you also have probably the most peaceful and respectable comment section. No hate, no arguments. It's just beautiful
Can I just say how very impressed I am, by this young man's determination to make a simple and happy life. By his creativity and ingenuity, and by his skill. Im not often awed by people. Lately, were not showing our best selves. This guy has us all beat, hands down. If you read your comments? Thank you so much for sharing the story of your life. Its a lot better than most of what you see in the world of media today. 😊 Good luck in your journeys.🥰🥰🥰
Hot Take... Primitive Skills is the only Legit Survival Channel, The only Good Survival Channel and the only enjoyable survival channel to watch. I mean fakes be making waterslides in Primitive survival while this guy is progressing to the iron age for crying out loud. Its just awesome, Keep up the good work Primitive Skills
By now you have all the tools you may want/need my friend. And you learned smithing the hard way. How about creating something like a loom? To make your own cloth? A strong blanket as f.e. a door may be a good idea.
i'd say needle and thread first. maybe then an inkle style (band) loom for making straps. easiest method would likely be cotton, though i would love to see a taming of a wool producing creature. however, being aware of the rainy seasons as well as not knowing how he would pen said creature durring the story seasons, i dont see this as immediately viable.
@@Minion0ne I have not yet seen "primitive" channels making leather. Needle and thread are not a problem to build for "Primitive Skills". No idea what creatures deliver wool in these countries. I have never seen sheep there. I would put stuff (like the mask is made of) on the bottom of an water-purifying-system (to prevent charcoal-particles from slipping into the purified water). For real clothes, wool is needed? But blankets or other mats don't need wool. Hmmmm.

Yeah. The current handle make the hammer lost some energy force when wield. Plus, its dangerous, the hammer steel would fly away if the handle loose, might hit his head. He should make a new properly handle for hammer. Hope he read this. Sorry my english suck.
Good advice from all of you. Remember though that this is an exploration, a evolution of skills. He must go through the learning process, step by step, making improvements as he works through his growth. If he jumps ahead to use a more modern improvement, he will miss some of the evolutionary process.
I was watching that hammer slide back and forth thinking the exact same thing. Also the hits would pack a lot more force if the head wasn't moving away from the workpiece.
no high dollar anvil, a self made hammer, not even a pair of pos shoes on his feet, great work my friend, another very useful tool created. thanks for sharing, new subscriber here. 👍 🙂
Don't Know if you have heard of it but mojang released the smelter furnace it's much faster for processing raw ore, you could save some time by building one of those, it only cost 3 cobblestone and 5 iron ingots
If this was hardenable steel you may wish to temper it. Otherwise you could bring the piece to a cherry red temperature and stick it into a bucket of charcoal powder for three hours. The piece being big enough to hold the heat and coupled with that the insulating properties of the charcoal you would be able to case harden the piece. Then quench like you did in the video.
@@Laugh1ngboy Actually not at all, iron gotten out of a bloomery as he did is very low in carbon. However this iron was not from the bloom he made so carbon content is unknown.
I new shelter! I've been waiting for this. And it looks like it's going to be connected to the water supply.. So many things you can do with that water. A workshop room? Multiple floors? It will be the best primitive house builds on TH-cam I'm sure. I cant wait to see this.
I noticed that the head to your hammer keeps sliding back each time you strike (presumably the reason you keep flipping the hammer) this would mean there is a loss in the energy transfer between the hammer and the metal. And sometimes even a small amount of movement can mean an exponential decrease in how much energy is transferred directly to the metal. Maybe try making a handle that would hold it more securely. It would keep the head in place and that would also improve the effectiveness. Also another tip, you may want to consider rounding one side of the hammer. Rounded hammers can be very helpful in moving more material
I agree with the other replies. Such an awesome job. I watched you until you were completed. I am so impressed with your skills and work. You are surely blessed by God.
Absolutely, what you say is true, but thanks to his ability and inventiveness, he makes us always expect more from him, the hammer is not worthy of him and not the opposite ....
He is the cleanest primitive person i've ever seen, with barely any calluses on his hands. This is a whole new level for reality tv. But i like it, my suspension of disbelief is not really broken. Well, i just mean this is loads better than other "reality" tv.
@@velazquezarmouries nearly impossible, maybe the right shape rock could be used but I dought it, first tongs where likely cast of a softer metal like copper or bronze
@@ziamckeithen1322 but riveted tongs are way easier to forge compared to a propper hammer he maybe should make a trip hammer or a water wheel hammer to get that extra power he needs for punching those kinds of holes
@@velazquezarmouries he should uses his hammer to make a punch and drift, then a better hammer, even a hold in the sides for rope, then tongs, he has plenty of power it's just being wasted when his hammer head slides around, rember this is at best mild steel, so it's verry soft, heck I would have used a stone hammer and wooden anvil to make chisles before attempting iron hammer but at the verry least a Grove could be added to lock his hammer head in place.
@@velazquezarmouries it's also not a question of power but skill, and tooling, I garentee he dident make thoughs tongs with the tools he's shown us alone
Too bad about the hut corner beam. That's not a simple thing to fix. Your new tool will improve life so much. I still think some forge sandals are in order, metal that hot is a burn like no other. Keep up the journey thanks for bringing me along!
Sensacional, muito legal seu canal, continue fazendo as ferramentas e construa uma casa melhor de pedra. Parabéns pelo canal. Brasil está te assistindo.
Great Video!!! And like i said, LOVE the subtitles! it also work to maintain the attention in the video. Maybe make them last a tad longer, 3/4 of a sec longer should do the trick.
Am I the only one surprised that the only wide rounded part of the forging was to wrap around the handle? Seems he could have gone a little more broad, with maybe a pointed end. I say this, but I'm not the one who made their own iron forge from raw materials.
Man has skill and he is brave. I honestly would have widened the spade head some more and would have given it a slight edge making it better at driving.
If you are hardening it in water to get the full effect and Harden it all around you have to have it moving around in the water so steam doesn't encapsulate it and keep it from hardening
while i personally am not a blacksmith (i just watch a lot of videos) i highly recommend that you temper that thing properly (as in; stick it in an oven so that it's just liquid enough for the atoms to move around and release some of that stress,). otherwise, it stands a high chance of instantaneously shattering like glass from that heat treat.
Oye que bien lo que hace esta persona.... me parece asombroso fabricar sus propias herramientas de LA nada y transformar su entorno son LO CON sus manos su intelecto EL manejo técnico de los materiales... muy muy bien
I like the style of that hammer though the head could have been shaped to fit the handle more still. A sturdy fit head to the handle will keep both your tool and hands for longer and make your work easier. Keep what you know that which is tested to be good.
Well, the hammer was one of the first iron tools he made mainly as a prerequisite to many of the other tools. He had to shape it by beating a piece of iron with a rock, so it's incredibly rudimentary. I'm sure that once he has a need for an upgrade, he will go for it.
Any man brave enough to forge metal barefoot deserves a like and a subscription at the very least.
u do see him getting burnt a few times tho. my my younger days when working with a crew i was holding a metal pipe for something when they where grinding it fucking burt alot when the red hot flakes of metal goes down your neck or eats away at your gloves..
I'm pretty sure most African civilizations created iron protective gear.
Have you ever heard of Florida
Ballowall then where’s my subscription
No
The most amazing part of this video is that he was able to overcome his handicap. Being left-handed and still doing all of these things is truly inspiring!
Ohhhhh
Gonna post this on every single of his videos after learning on different one
Turn on English captions, he tells you what he's doing
You're Welcome!
For how long has this been going on? I binged everything in 2 days up to here and it seems ill have to start over!
you would think i would have learned from the 'primitive technology' channel, and here i am, a fool nontheless.
Good call, glad I saw your comment!
Thanks!
Thank you it worked.
If not for else, these videos serve as an excellent demonstration just how much of a difference even the simplest, crude, rough forged metal tools make compared to wood and stone.
can't wait for him to build a portal to the Nether!
he need to find diamond first 😂😂
Can wait for him to try out the new ore
That joke is older than the bodies in my basement
Lol, good one. He doesn't need the game thou. 😊😁

Even after years, he is still a legend in my eyes
Thank you so much
He is a Blacksmith, a Carpenter and a Builder all in one
Formerly called a “human”
@@PseudoPhlegm I don't think every "Human" knows how to forge, smith tools and weapons also build huge structures.
@@cheesyvin8078 ... he said formerly. not formally
I developed a whole new respect as soon as he laid the handle in the first time. I thought the first part WAS his shovel.
same feeling here bro..
I was kind of disappointed, the finished product was more of a pick that a spade

It's about time you made a drift and drove a hole through the hammer to put a proper handle on it.
this is solid advice
Yeah. The current handle make the hammer lost some energy force when wield. Plus, its dangerous, the hammer steel would fly away if the handle loose, might hit his head.
He should make a new properly handle for hammer. Hope he read this. Sorry my english suck.

Going to semi-hijack this to say a trompe for furnace air supply (using the water hammer water input) would increase efficiency.

Pretty sure his method of smelting added plenty of carbon to it.

You think he has a hot enough fire and can make a hard enough punch to hot punch a hole in the iron hammer for a hardwood hammer?
Do it first. Then share.

awesome job keep on doing it, is there a way for us to see some wider shots of the valley and the place in general it looks amazing there
thanks man.

Just amazing bro....way better than other real estate primitive channels,keep it up
This place is a paradise
I agree with the other replies. Such an awesome job. I watched you until you were completed. I am so impressed with your skills and work. You are surely blessed by God.
You do know this channel fakes everything, right? If you want the real thing, watch Primitive Technology, he does everything legitimately.
Friend, I beg you, that hammer is no longer worthy of you. You are amazing, it is a pleasure to watch your videos.
the hammer is a serious upgrade from the rock he used to form the hammer
Absolutely, what you say is true, but thanks to his ability and inventiveness, he makes us always expect more from him, the hammer is not worthy of him and not the opposite ....
He deserves the hammer of thor himself
Somewhere there’s a part of me. It feels like an animal. That individual part of me know. This channel is everything I w.. need.
same bro
This forge is so efficient, mostly cause of this amazing blower ! Keep up the good work :)

Respect for every day you doing this. You are a Man, like the beste I can think.

Good work man. Should make a grindstone of some sort, make sharpening tools easier.
This is so interesting and cool. So much hard work. Thank you for the content
You're the only TH-camr whose everyvideo I liked.
Very good 👏👏
These videos are amazing man. Can't wait to see what's next !
When civilization eventually collapses this guy right here will be king of what's left

Literally forging fire what a legend 🔥
I can totally understand this guy. Awesome Videos!
Personally I hate ASMR and stuff like it, but I love this guy's stuff. It's educational and oddly calming, maybe this is the ASMR for me?
experts speak always... :) amazing videos!

And i like it
Muy buen trabajo me suscribo al canal saludo desde Argentina 🇦🇷 gracias
I appreciate you making these videos. They are very relaxing to my anxiety. It would interesting to spend time there working alongside you.
This is someone Scott Wadsworth at Essential Craftsman would have a lot to talk about with. Two kings
Amazing Video - Thanks for

Was so happy you doing more tools and found somewhat good rocks for anvil-like work, nice job! :o
Kkkkk
Such a beautiful place ❤️
Super excited to see what the house will turn out to be.

Hi from Denmark...
Lots of hard work, I wish I had the skills, well done.

Exelente.
More of this long videos, dont cut every scene 👍
It would have been better with T Shape. But u did great job.
I always forget to leave adblock on when watching your videos so I make sure to disable it and watch them again a couple of times.
Does he show how that blower is made in a different video?
Yea. I think it's the forge upgrade
Je vais essayer mon ami à bientôt!!!🇨🇦
please make a patreon! many people would donate!!
If you are hardening it in water to get the full effect and Harden it all around you have to have it moving around in the water so steam doesn't encapsulate it and keep it from hardening
This could most likely be wrong but I do it and it seems it works well with me but that might be because my water is flameable
I bet with all the foraging he does, he’ll end up finding the ender pearl and one day meet the tall ones.
while i personally am not a blacksmith (i just watch a lot of videos) i highly recommend that you temper that thing properly (as in; stick it in an oven so that it's just liquid enough for the atoms to move around and release some of that stress,). otherwise, it stands a high chance of instantaneously shattering like glass from that heat treat.
