Amazing work! I laughed at one point as there were lots of tiny shavings and I instinctively tried to blow them away for you! Felt like I was there with you. Thanks for sharing your work.
This is really a rare oppertunity to see an indepth craft from and original hand cut die maker. So glad you made videos to share your tools and demonstrate trade secrets and techniques. There's nothing else like it available. Even most pneumatic engraving videos don't have the traditional methods that need to be passed on. Thank you again. I've watched this multiple times and the shots, angles, tips, etc. I always pick up on something new that didn't click the first time through months ago
STEVE! Do some more content PLEASE, I learned so much from this one video. I am a self taught hobbyist no talent engraver I have been engraving for about 4 years and I found this video so helpful. Thank you for your help!
You will never step in the same water twice. Like the carving of your coins, the sculpture of your life. To be yourself is your best gift, it's nice to see you have mastered it..
Thank you SO MUCH for uploading this. I've seen many amazing examples of this artform, but there are very few videos of the process in action, and this is even better. Can't wait to give it a try!
Hello Steve, I have learnt more in your 38 minute video than I have in years, there again my trade is a mechanical fitter, a Hammer and pliers chap, yes, if one cannot pull it out hammer it in! A wait with awe your next video.
Thanks for the informative video. I’ve been engraving for almost 40 years. I apprenticed under a master gun engraver from Belgium back in the late 80’s daily for only about 7 months. I always love learning more.
Steve you are cool !...so many fackers sales very expensives tools , and you show pure true and real TALENT, i work long time in metal , and love to see and listening how you talk and do your job, Cheers from Berlin , Germany !
Thank you for sharing your expertise for those who are interested in trying this art form. You have a gift for teaching in an approachable fashion as well. Thanks.
Huge thumbs up you are definitely a combatant teacher you have the ability to hold the viewers attention and your videos will allow people like me to learn the art of engraving metal thanks to both of you
Just ran across this channel. I thoroughly enjoyed watching and listening. I hope you are still doing videos. I'm going to go check it out now. Thanks !
I had a question. In the making of hobo nickels, is it all subtractive carving? Do you ever add material to be shaped, and do you know if others practice adding material? Not that it matters really. They're still beautiful either way. Just had a thought... Thanks
Would love to see more videos especially the chisel and graver shaping demonstration you mentioned. It appears you don't post videos very often, but know that there are several of us who appreciate your work and look forward to future video releases.
Thank you so much, Steve and Bob. I really enjoyed this video and can't wait to see the rest of them coming up. You seem pretty comfortable in front of the camera, and I appreciate you sharing your tools and techniques.
Thank you for this video, I don’t engrave and more likely never will but I recently started purchasing hobo nickels and other engrave coins. I really like the coins and was curious how it was done. I now have a greater appreciation for all the work that you put into a coin. Everyday I search the internet for my next coin, like I said I just started collecting and so far have accumulated about 50 coins. Again thank you.
I would love to learn how to carve coins ever since I first saw an example of a hobo nickel in a copy of Coin World years ago...it would probably take a long time before I could even approach your ability and natural skill, but it would be fun trying. Thank you so much for the informative video
You made that look so easy.... from the first part where you carved the (yes it WAS perfect) circle, I said, "nope, not in my skill level".. LOL When you were using the flex shaft, I kept wanting to blow off the silver shavings to see better. If I tried to carve like that, that classic face would be unrecognizable when I finished....she'd need a nose job AND lip fillers! Love seeing a master at work! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for making this video. I carve small stones, so this is very helpful! I am looking forward to seeing the video about carving the coin. The tool making videos sound like something I will watch more than once to get all the details. I reslly appreciate you taking the time to share what you know. Because I am self-taught, seeing how you do things gives me hints on how to do the things I am trying to figure out. For instance, when you were carving, I found it helpful to see how you held the tool with both hands to keep it steady enough to not mess up the finer details. I have been doing something similar, but I think your way looks like it will work better. I'm going to give it a try on a carving I'm currently working on. The items I carve are usually less than 3 inches in size; often less than an inch. So there are lots of places where, if I push too hard or move the tool the wrong way, the stone will break and ruin the piece. I like your setup for holding your work. I never thought of taking the chuck off a lathe or drill to use as a vise... makes a perfect custom workpiece holder! I have an old drill I didn't want to throw away; now I know what I'm going to do with the chuck! Thanks again for making this video.
Wow,, steve, Thank you so much for sharing this at skill and making it available for the next generations! Love the tone of your voice, very calming and assuring to anyone learning something that, truth be told, has such a steep learning curve. By the way you talk and work it’s not a secret that you were a tool and die maker lol you gotta be patient and precise with detail orientation in mind! Great work and thank you for your kindness by sharing your time!
Very informative. As a former engraver I'm loving your whomper !! I went the opposite way with a very light homemade head and a 9" long very thin handle for a whippy feeling. I enherited Bill Mains old floor mounted rotary vice and it was also very solid but not as solid as yours ! Thanks for taking the time and kudo's to your photog/editor also.
Thank You Very Much For Sharing Your Skills, Abilities and Talents with All of Us. This Video is so much more fascinating and informative that anything on the TV ! I am a long time Wood Carver/ Whittler and I do know what you mean by things looking ugly before they look good. Also, I sometimes have to make a tools for particular problems too. Be Well Steve !
I'm new to Dremels, but this thing has been great. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxfPgcZ5_Cl0HDUKkMJAKde11YKQZVgMoR The variable speed is awesome and the cordless aspect makes it so easy to work with. I am constantly finding uses for it that make tasks easier. Recently I put in a new deadbolt on one of our doors. I knew I had to enlarge the hold where the deadbolt goes into the door frame. At first I thought I would have to get a big router and figure out how to use it for that, but then I rermembered we have the dremel. I was able to enlarge the hole almost as easy as if I was drawing with a pen. It's also great for grinding our dog's nails done and so many other household tasks.
Looking forward to future videos! Would love to learn how to make similar custom tools, and a video of a coin engraving start to finish would be amazing! 👍
this is dope!!! always wondered how to start out in the hobby or Art of coin carving and this shows it all!!!! keep em coming my friend very cool to see the process.❤
Thank you Steve, very informative video. Please make the one about carving a hobo nickel start to finish. You have shown me some tools I've not seen before. Will be making some changes to how I engrave to use your style.
Thank you so very much. So many awesome tips on this one video. I love the idea of scalloping the handpiece of the Foredom. I can't tell you how many times I've wished I could decrease the angle. I feel a little stupid for never having thought of it before, but thank you. 🙌
Thanks for sharing,loads of info and techniques.l have done a small amount of engraving and love the attention to detail and the calmness it brings. Regards Davy
Thanks for the advice regarding angling your work quite applicable for my work on electronics I'm 20 years old and have been doing this for 4 years and my back and neck are often in pain from my poor posture while working hopefully angling my work more will save my back for my future self.
I enjoyed this video very much. Thank you for taking the time, and sharing your skills and knowledge! I would love to see the tool making process. Particularly things like the flower punches.
This video overall is amazing! Steve himself, the video quality, video angles along with the editing and close ups of the tools, along with explanations. I really really wish there hd been more made. He was just a few years ahead of his time on TH-cam I think. This type of quality is usually charged a hefty price for and I appreciate you sharing it with us! ♥
I'm GUTTED :-( I've just watched this and got so excited at the prospect of all the videos I'd be able to catch up on, Subbed halfway through and at the end immediately went to your page only to find this was the last video you posted! I hope you are well and still creating and learning, PLEASE, If you are able, to continue with Dr ROB lol (a great team in the making) the videos you said you planned on doing, ie the making of tools, design from start to finish etc, I learned so much from this one video and I love your passion and style which I can only see improving as you become more comfortable with the filming side of it. Anyway, If you don't/can't make any more vids, TY Steve and Doc for what you have posted and I wish you well from the UK ;@)
Throughly enjoyable video. I love to watch a craftsman working. Can I suggest you put a small notch 180 degrees opposite the flat on the handle on your ‘dremel type’ tool. Then you’ll know your good to go without having to keep turning it upside down to check it’s level 😉
Hi Steve. Love the tour here. Great details. I have a small woodworking shop and I’ve been interested in making my own custom coins for some time. I was looking for a while to hire someone to print my own custom designs (vector graphics) but I haven’t really found an affordable option. A lot of the companies that print stuff for you on coins have limitations like they’ll only do text with a limit on the typographic options, etc. that’s not for me. I want text and image. So I watched this video here and thought, hey, maybe I should get a few more tools and some round stock brass and just carve my own coins from scratch (nevermind the hiring someone to stamp in Avenir only). It’s kinda more my jam to build things from scratch anyway. So, I watched this video closely and I’m looking for some lathe tooling tips to secure my coins (stock brass) in place at my work bench. I found this Airgraver company which makes a higher end ‘multi-coin vise’ but I don’t know that I want to dive into quite that high of a price range just yet. I’m looking for something not completely pro but not completely amateur either. I was thinking about buying one of these cheap eBay lathe chucks and drilling a coin sized space in the top of the jaws. The trick is finding one with jaws made of a soft enough metal, like aluminum maybe, or buying a nicer lathe chuck and replacing the jaws with soft, third-party jaws. The other trick is compatibility. I don’t understand how chuck jaws sizing works so not sure if you have any ideas here? Here are a few things I’ve found that I’m thinking might be workable. What do you think of these options? 1) eBay generic: www.ebay.com/itm/402503784065 2) Grizzly: www.grizzly.com/products/grizzly-mini-lathe-chuck-w-arbors/h5934 3) Wen Tools: wenproducts.com/products/wen-la4374-3-and-three-fourths-inch-4-jaw-self-centering-chuck-set-with-1-inch-x-8tpi-thread?_pos=11&_sid=bcca4296e&_ss=r Thank you.
Hi Steve, you are one of the wonders of the world. but It’s been 2 years now, we are still waiting to see the end result. You did say that you would show us a completed coin. Please please do it. We are all waiting.
I was hoping to see end product. Nice to see the varients you use to work with, a little modern power tool, a little old fashion care and muscle. Nice to be a machinist with the lathe jaws and goodies at ones disposal, not hard to find tho.
This is very informative and useful and I appreciate your teaching style. I can hardly wait to see what comes next. You are obviously very talented and experienced and thank you for sharing your knowledge. When should we look for your next video(s)?
The next video is actually a full length 2 hour carving video on DVD which I sell to cover my costs to make it. It shows carving a coin from beginning to end.
So im a glass artist, im big on hobbies and this has really peaked my son and is interest, my question is can it be done with an electric chisel? Short of spending a couple gs to see if hes into it can i buy a cheap setup for him to try out. I went through many hobbies and spent thousands of dollars before i found glass. Im about 30k into tools and glass now lol. We go hard.
It was my intention to do several more. I did a two hour beginning to end carving demonstration, but have not been able to arrange the time with my camera guy to do the tool making video yet.
The black background, the calming voice, the total domination of a craft...if Bob Ross had brother....lol. Seriously loved it tho, you could be an instructor, I just absorbed a ton of info.
I’m very impressed by this video and the skills of Steve Adams. I hope to see more of his work. I wonder if the specs of his bench vice setup could be detailed. A GRS system is so expensive. Using lath chucks in a vice seems to be the way to go. What are the best sizes and types to use ? Best Regards 👋
Love the talent of doing the engraving of "hibonickels" but how, if they ever did, hobos create such marvelous art pieces during the Great Depression with such modern tools?
Sir, I have tried the email listed in the description , but have not received a response. Have you received my request? I'm very interested in purchasing your DVD. Thank you.
Amazing work! I laughed at one point as there were lots of tiny shavings and I instinctively tried to blow them away for you! Felt like I was there with you. Thanks for sharing your work.

Hello Steve Adams, your looking well. You done a great job on this tutorial. My coin you gave me holds a place of honor in our cabinet. Be well amigo.
Thank you for posting this video Steve. I much appreciate it. Looking forward to seeing more. Especially how this coin turned out! Thank you.

At 18:30 I can't believe how you can make a perfect circle, using a jerky chisel no less! You are clearly a master of your craft!
Thank you.

I think hobo nickels are a national folk art treasure. Thanks for the videos man!

Hi Steve. Love the tour here. Great details. I have a small woodworking shop and I’ve been interested in making my own custom coins for some time.

Badass, Steve!!!
Incredible how skilled the human hands can be.
Thanks for the video. Makes me want to start carving again.
Hi Steve, you are one of the wonders of the world.
but It’s been 2 years now, we are still waiting to see the end result. You did say that you would show us a completed coin. Please please do it. We are all waiting.

The next video is actually a full length 2 hour carving video on DVD which I sell to cover my costs to make it. It shows carving a coin from beginning to end.
Are your dvds available? If so, where may they be purchased?
There is an email to go to now to request purchasing info.
Steve, I can't seem to locate that email address. I would really like to purchase your dvd...

I wonder if the specs of his bench vice setup could be detailed. A GRS system is so expensive. Using lath chucks in a vice seems to be the way to go. What are the best sizes and types to use ? Best Regards 👋
Love the talent of doing the engraving of "hibonickels" but how, if they ever did, hobos create such marvelous art pieces during the Great Depression with such modern tools?
I've got lots of scrap 1084 high carbon steel....would that work as good as the tool steel if properly hardened...it's also oil hardening steel?
Amazing video, I would love it if you made more. Subscribed!
