Excellent description of setting up tools and protect the flypress! Thanks

Thanks for sharing. I've been slowly working on tooling for my flypress and this has given more some more ideas.

You are a big help, just got my flypress set up today, can now make tooling from your video

[@DireWolfForge]

I use bolts with an unthreaded shoulder for my flypress tools. I like bolts because I orient one corner to align with the front direction of the tool when I weld them. Then I grind off the other corners. Helps to see which way the tool is pointed. Especially important for me with my touchmark that I weld onto a bolt.

Very informative video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience 👍🏻

Learned alot from this video. Thanks for making it.

Great Video. For some reason there is not a lot of videos on TH-cam on Flypress forging and tooling. There is a Daniel Moss one and Black Bear Forge one that I know of. Always nice to see what other guys are doing for ideas.
