Hi Glen...Check out Champion de Arment Tool Company..I suspect that is the one
That is exactly it! You're a genius detective in the style of Sherlock Holmes. I've been wondering this forever. Thanks very much.
That has to be one of the best Flatters I have ever seen...I like "what am I doing? " projects that work out with results like that.
I guess you could call what I sometimes do "caveman" blacksmithing. Thanks for watching.
@@gstongs nothing Caveman about that one Glen
Great design, great work.
Completely making it up as I go along. So sometimes I get lucky. Thanks Ron
It's good you went with the tong theme, looks like 4 sets of pincers.
That's a common comment on this one. I didn't intend for it to look like tongs/pincers but that's how it turned out. Maybe I've made too many tongs.
When I first saw the thumbnail pic,I thought it was some type of blacksmith tool,lol.
A four way tong,lol
So people feel the same. I wish I could have left the ends straight but I guess the four way tong suits me.
At first looking at the thumb nail I thought you were making another set of tongs and I was like hmm, what’s this going to be?
But then I got in to the video...🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
Love your touchmark!!!
So many people have said the same. I guess even when I'm not making tongs I can't get away from tongs. Glad you like the mark. Thanks.
103 to 0 on the like button, you don't see that often, great job
The zero is gone but I realize this isn't everyone's cup of tea. Thanks.
Hammer could be a “Champion De Arment” brand. They produced hammers from 1914 and are the inventors of channel lock pliers.
I did a Google search and that is the logo that is on the hammer. Good eye.
You and another figured this out and I really appreciate it. I wanted to know this for a very long time - I acquired that hammer many years ago. Big thanks.
Just very glad to find out the brand. I've looked at that hammer with a magnifying glass under different lighting so many times.
Awesome job! I enjoy watching you work. You always make it look so calm and collected.
I try my best but the results aren't always what I want. No matter, thanks for your support.
Bad ass power hammer!
It takes primitive blacksmithing to a whole new level. Thanks.
Great job on the video and that sweet little trivet 👏👏🔥
Hi Roy, This is one of my "I'm not too sure what I'm doing" projects. And you almost certainly know that doing TH-cam for a while can be a slog - hard to come up with project ideas sometimes. Thanks and keep up the good work.
I do believe thats about as close as you can get to tongs without actually being tongs. Nice job for sure.
It seems even when I'm not making tongs, I'm making tongs. Thanks.
Hi Glen, I see by the comments, you have our attention on your new tong design. Thanks a bunch 👍⚒
Ha! Even when I don't intend to make a tong, I make a tong. Thanks.
Love your power hammer 🤣🤣🤣
I don't mess around. Only the finest "power" tooling! Thanks.
Great job! Love the power hammer. lol.
I sometimes need to break out the "power". Primitive blacksmithing at it's finest. Thanks.
As usual, I didn't know where you were going with this project, and your in-flight corrections to get the piece in your forge were, of course, ultimately incorporated into the piece, which I think is the mark of a real artist. I will remember this one when I have to rethink a project that's already underway. Thanks!
For stuff like this, it's obvious that I'm a man without a plan. And sometimes that's fine. Thanks.
Love your power hammer
Gives new meaning to the term "drop" hammer. Thanks.
Beautiful work, Glenn. Since I've started this hobby earlier this year, your combination of style and techniques are truly unique in my eyes.
Glad you enjoy watching. Good luck in your blacksmithing.
That is awesome Glen. Looks like my hoof nippers on each corner and hearts too. Excellent project and wonderful creativity on your part.
I think I preferred the ends straight. It definitely has a hoof nipper look that is strangely interesting.
I've...never thought of my second anvil as a power hammer... *starts eyeing both anvils in the shop, and an old treadmill motor*
Ha! Nothing is off limits with me and it seems I always do things the hard way. Thanks.
WOW looking great. I really need to get back to smithing! You do it on a balcony I have no excuse!
You make a good point, no excuse... Thanks.
Energy = 1/2 m V^²...so a lighter hammer requires less effort to start swinging as you say, (F=mA)...But once you get it going the energy stored in its motion is by the velocity squared. The energy is what you dump into the receiving metal.
Great topic about the choice of hammers. Thanks so much for another great video.
Excellent information. Beyond the physics / science of it, there's a time and place for a lighter hammer - something that so many folks seem to avoid. Thanks for sharing.
Love the great manual flatter, too.
Caveman style flatter which suits my hairy body just fine! Thanks.
As a old lady noob blacksmith with kitten strength, I have stuck to around 2.5 lb hammers. Nice to hear from someone I don't have to struggle with a 5 lb chunk of iron to get it done. Brass brushing effect is very elegant looking!
Cool take on the trivet. Thanks, Glen!
My pleasure. Thanks.
Your hammer explanation is “hit the nail on the head” I’ve been teased about my light hammer 800 g. (1.75 lb) but it moves the steel as quickly as a1 kg hammer especially with smaller steel stock. Thanks for another great video.
I swing a homemade 1 7/8 pound cross pean, suites me just fine. ⚒
Hi Larry, I've seen some really masterful blacksmiths use 1.5 pound hammers to great effect. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing.
You make my day Glen, love your power hammer, fun project.
That power hammer is one-of-a-kind! Caveman style blacksmithing... Thanks.
Add to that the accuracy issue between swinging heavy vs lighter weight. Watching FiF, you can observe some horrific hammering techniques of guys throwing giant hammers.
Very good point. Some folks let their egos get the best of them. I did the same years ago so I know - arm/shoulder paid the price...
And Again, Beautiful Work.
Never too far, Always far enough
Thanks for your nice comment.
Love watching this channel. Workmanship is exceptional!! And Glen is very personable and polite!!! Great 👍 job!!!
Beautiful trivet. Very well made👍👍🔥🔥
This is one of my love/hate pieces. It turned out interesting but I wish I could have left the ends straight. Thanks.
That is pretty badass Glen!!
Love your style man!
I would have liked to keep the ends straight but as it stands, it's still just a piece of metal to put something hot on. Thanks.
Good fun. Thanks, Glen...
No matter how pieces like this turn out, I do enjoy projects like this. Thanks Ken
WOW, that's REALLY nice!!! OUTSTANDING work Sir!
I think I would have preferred the ends to be straight. But glad you like it and thanks for watching.
Awesome job Glen, totally original concept I think, well done.
I think I would have liked it better with the ends straight. Thanks for your support.
Excellent work as always sir.
Much appreciated.
Nice job on the trivet
Very cool and a grand idea.
For this, it's obvious that I'm a man without a plan. But it turned out fine. Thanks.
Looks great Glen!
I think having the ends straight would have been better but it does have an interesting look. Thanks.
Fabulous design.
Thanks for watching.
Nice job,that's thinking on your feet.
Much appreciated.
Great work as always glen, keep it up
Well that makes 2 of us gas engine collectors that enjoy watching Glen 👍⚒
Small world... Thanks for watching.
I'll do my best. Thanks.
Nice job sir !!!
Much appreciated.
Nice power hammer moment there
sir your work super good
Nice work
Thanks.
Super cool!!
Thanks for watching.
Really cool!
Thanks.
Glen, totally appreciate you and your efforts on TH-cam. Want to also shout out to Jerry S. Hodges (sp?) for his awesome support. I wish I were able to do as awesome a job of supporting your channel as he does. Just wanted to acknowledge him further, and thank you again, Britt
* trivet turned out awesome! Looks like 4 conjoined sets of tongs... totally cool
Thanks for your shout-out of the shout-out for Jerry. No worries my friend, watching is support enough.
Super comme d'habitude merci.
At the end of the day, it's just a piece of metal to rest something hot on. Thanks.
CAme out pretty Good mate. Will make a good trivet.
I wish I would have left the ends straight. Think it might have had more appeal. But it serves the purpose. Thanks.
Hello Glen, this is a beautiful design, it reminds me of hoofnippers. Greetings from germany!
Yes, it unintentionally came out looking like nippers. Thanks Peter.
If you were to push those curved ends in just a little more and refine the curve, the corners would be heart shaped. That would add a little wimsy to the piece.
Hi mate, I guess if the Neanderthal power hammer failed, you could have thrown it over the balcony and onto the Rd below. If hitting the ground didn’t flatten it, I’m sure a scooter would have run over it . Great job anyway . Always good to watch. Cheers from OZ.
My caveman style power hammer hasn't failed me yet! Thanks for watching.
Impossible Quad Blacksmith Tongs
LOL! That's what I thought! "What the hell is he gonna use those for?!?!"
That certainly is what it looks like. I've got tongs on the brain. Thanks.
At one point, I was thinking the same!
We recently finished a forging challenge on The ForgeCast podcast to make the most wild set of tongs possible - I think this trivet could have been a solid contender!
Ha! I didn't intend for the ends to look like tong bits but I guess I've got tongs on the brain.
Very nice..
Thanks for watching.
My hammer selecting seems is match the hammer weight in some of the mass I'm working to some regards but limits to the hammer due mostly towards my ability to control.
Paul Sir I like the teaching Sir, Thanks
please tell me, in the end, do you lubricate with linseed oil ?
I never use linseed oil. I just spray with WD-40. Thanks for watching.
@@gstongs I see, thank you
I like your hot brass brushing. Ever try it with a copper brush?
If I could find a copper brush, I would definitely try it.
@@gstongs Maybe one of those copper kitchen scrub pads. Don't know if they make them anymore, though. Might be just my grey hair showing... LOL!
Since horses hoof need to flex , could you make shoes with a flat rivet in the toe . 1 or 2 sizes would be fitable to most horses ??
I'm not really sure. I'm not a farrier and have little knowledge of shoes and hoof care. Thanks for watching.
How long does it take for delivery to UK for a Touch mark.
Ta
Postage to the UK has been suspended for a while now. And I've also stopped offering the touch mark service, at least temporarily. Maybe check back after some time.
I love that anvil where could I find one like that
The small, block style anvils I use are my own designs which I had made here in Taiwan. Thanks for watching.
Have you ever tried an induction forge?
No, never tried an induction forge but would be interested from the videos I've seen.
There are some pretty cheap
A little odd, but, hey, why not!
I agree. I think I would have preferred the ends to be straight. Live and learn...
How does your anvil not have the ring that traditional anvils have?
It has a magnet on it and it does not have a horn
As Sander said, the magnet I have on it really reduces the ring.
Correct and thanks for helping out.
Stupid question but what is this you made used for?
this is used to place a hot pan or pot on to protect the table (there is a second kind with longer legs that is used to cook over hot coals in a fire)
No questions is stupid, really... W Mose said it perfectly - just to keep a hot pan or pot raised off of a table or other similar surface. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for your reply.
@@gstongs i should say i always enjoy watching you work and talk through your thought presses
Tong trivet
Para que serve isso ???
Could it be a "CHAMPION DEARMENT" hammer? That's the best name I could find that includes "ARMENT" proceeded by two letters. And it looks like they made ball peen hammers.
Yes, that's exactly it. A couple of others pointed this out in the comments. Been wanting to know this for a long time. Thanks.
Also can I join your power hammer club?
"Orient" hammer?
Thanks for watching.
и зачем эта хрень?
why not...
