    It's fun to watch two enthusiasts talk shop.
    This guy expresses himself nearly as well as Scott.

    Ok Essential craftsman, I've been following you since comments on Matt Risingers channel sent me to you when the build 1st started. I have never felt the need to set up a "Essential Craftsman Best" save list for myself. Now 2 vids in today, I find that HAVE to set up a EC best. Thank you. I've been enjoying Stage Coach Farm, for that matter, who of course I "met through you.. Thanks

    Great pneumatic hammer. It's fun what you learn by visiting another's shop. Thanks for getting us all in there with you.

    My friends’ son just turned 10. I took him to the Ferrier on his birthday and he got to make a horseshoe. We all had a blast.

    What great stuff. Its nice to see hiw someone else does thing that you can steal that idea or adopt that idea and make it your own. Or see how something is supposed to work and it gives you a much better understanding. Jeep up your great work on this channel Scott. Thanks.😊

    I made the Super Sucker side draft in 2011 . Yes it's super! The plan called for a 12" or 10" chimney, can't remember exactly which o. But I couldn't find in my area that size so I used an 8", it draws a bit slower but the trick is to place white hot charcoal inside is at the back to heat it up way before you fire your forge. A cold chimney won't draw. Also I use a wind direction chimney vane so any blowing wind helps to add draw.
    I studied with Frank Turley in Santa Fe, God I miss him.

    I enjoyed these videos, I was impressed with how easily Scott picked up everything. I know he already knows blacksmithing but to see how quickly and easily he made it look, both of you are incredibly talented in what you do.

    The little giant reminds me of when Will was trying to restore one, when he got ready to split with Alec and set up his own shop. Man, what a tragic ending that was.

    I've got a rather odd question. I've had a VERY comfortable outer work jacket that has grown older with me, but sadly I've outlasted it. Would mind sharing the brand of the black canvas jacket you're wearing in this video? I'm shopping around and your seems durable and long-lasting.

  • @Boosted98gsx
    @Boosted98gsx 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    1 problem with that hammer that I see off the bat, is bolted in dies. Those fasteners will come loose over time. Should be dovetails and drifts to mechanically lock the dies in place. I've seen fasteners pop heads off and send dies flying. Not a good thing to have with an operator's head "inches" away...

    • @meNtor890
      @meNtor890 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have you really seen fasteners pop heads off and send dies flying? That sounds a bit incredible. If thinking generally, not this KZ hammer. Can't you just put bigger bolts there until they're strong enough?

    • @Boosted98gsx
      @Boosted98gsx 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@meNtor890 Yes. Consider the amount of force (not just the hammer head falling mass, but the momentum driving it) being transferred into the workpiece / anvil. All that vertical (Z axis) force is going to result in harmonics. Those harmonics will cause the thread in the fasteners to "jiggle" up and down, resulting in the surface / surface friction holding them in place to momentarily be absent. This coupled to the helical threads, will result in those threads turning ever so slightly over time. Threadlocker can help with this, as it fills that gap and adds friction, but nothing is a permanent solution aside from truly mechanically locking the dies in place with dovetails and a tapered drift.
      Look at basically every Mazel's anvil -> sow and sow-> dies. Heck, look at the little giant even in this video. Same thing. There's a reason for it, and that's keeping those dies in place. You don't want fasteners in any system where high G impacts are taking place (unless there's some other mechanical method of ensuring they don't unscrew, ie wiring, or crown nuts with cotters). Always consider worst case scenario for a machine and its failure modes when designing and manufacturing. COULD X happen, yes?, mitigate.

    See all that blurring going on during slight movement that's poor electronic stabilization, disable that in software on your camera or could be enabled in post processing. I can almost guarantee your camera filming it has optical stabilization already.

    Saddle dies are def not a Ken design. His are nice too, but that idea goes back a long ways. Most folks were introduced to it by Clifton Ralph.

    The MZ75 may be quiet but the honking big compressor it requires is NOT! (Unless you get one of the old 1750 rpm Kellogg type compressors from the 70s). MZ 75 has a CFM requirement of 17 CFM at 175 psi. While it may 'work' with a pancake compressor you're not going to be doing production work with it. Ken's makes a great hammer but there are some caveats the guy in this video is "sales pitching" around. Do your homework folks. An MZ 75 is ~$7200. You can get a near equivalent weight Anyang (not an ST knockoff) for just under $10K. An MZ is ~$7200 PLUS a couple grand worth of compressor. The Anyang is just a poka poka poka sound at idle.

    "Dead silent" apart from the air compressor- not all that good to have a high cycling pump.
