    Just inherited a William Forester coach maker anvil guessing about 90 lbs and a circular pan forge with a champion hand crank blower, it was frozen up but was easily loosened up with some WD-40 and gently prying on the blade/flywheel. Built a new stand for the anvil and got to use them both today.

    Think if you're going to do a lot of san mai, it might be worth getting a cheap TIG welder and fusion welding them together with no filler rod. Its not a 100% cure for having things stick together well.
    But you can do fluxless forge welding- its not hugely strong though so it might be handy to set them by hand first before breaking out the big guns like the press and power hammer.
    Like the long form vids once in a while too!

    Bassist here - The wood you asked about is often used in guitar/bass neck construction and is typically pronounced as "when gay," but I think the way you said it (like "win-j") is also acceptable.
    It's a bit of a to-may-to//to-mah-to kind of thing, but I personally prefer "when gay" because I think it sounds cooler.

    TIA.

    • @FireCreekForge
      @FireCreekForge  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching! The diesel helps protect the surfaces to be welded and provides a small carbon deposit which aids in forge welding.

    What is your billet size? Looks like you started out with 3"X2"x 3/4". Would there be a big problem starting out with a thinner section and adjusting the length and width to compensate for volume? Really enjoyed your video!

    • @FireCreekForge
      @FireCreekForge  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, you can adjust the size of the pieces you use to make the billet, the important thing is that the layers are the same thickness, or very close to it, so that you end up with and even San Mai in the finished product.

    Curious if it's possible to make dyes for the blade taper, making it leave enough for heat treatment at the blade edge, while making sure it's centered perfectly with the spine?

    That’s gotta be the most elaborate explanation. It made you sound even smarter (not that you wasn’t before).
    Why not use a jig to clamp the blades in after quenching. If they have a distal taper or in integral bolster I understand why not. But if it’s all equal thickness, wouldnt it be faster and more efficient to place them in a jig? While allowing them to finish the martensite transformation that way to ensure straightness. I’ve always noticed that you do it by hand and eye, just trying to understand your methods that you do things😉

    • @FireCreekForge
      @FireCreekForge  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Haha. Yes, the have distal taper, plus forged bevels, otherwise a jig may work.

    "secondary bevel". And you should have polished those blades. And most knifemakers agree on heat treatment, that's about the only thing they agree on. Hope this helps.
