She is your sister?
People, please don't take the word "sister" literally. Very dear friends are often addressed as sister or brother in my country. that's why I say she is sister...!
Primitive Skills ok my friend 😜
Do you plan on returning the subtitles?
Because they were awesome and with them it was 10 times easier to follow the content ;)
@@PrimitiveSkillsnet oh
Anyone who has ever done blacksmithing knows a thin metal shovel or spade is one of the most difficult items to make and this man is using a stone anvil . Respect sent and the bellows is brilliant .
I think i delaminated 10 projects before i actually got the hand of it, trying to make a small replacement shovel face for an antique horse pulled digging machine i was restoring. It's not a joke, unless you actually know what you're doing, it goes pear shaped very fast. :))
@@aserta I'd like to see the project you're talking about and making plow shears is difficult without an anvil with a horn . A lot of "cold pounding " with a hammer so the plow geometry doesn't go way south . Proper quenching and tempering is an art in itself . ATB
So he took the sheet already ready, just warmed it up to red. And before that he knocked on the factory bar of metal.
On top of all the actual blacksmithing, he has to move around and set up all those cameras, _and_ make sure the composition of the shot is good.
Obviosly he didn't do it
In the beginning, I was one of the naysayers who thought you were just completely copying another well-known Primitive living channel.. but I have grown to love your videos, and seeing it all in a different environment. I'm glad to see you continue to grow, and all the projects you complete! Keep it up!
lol.. gets so excited about new shovel... digs hole in lounge room floor.. woops!
Fantastic job as always!
Everyone has suggestions, but if you curled the upper edge of the shovel, it would be easier on your foot!
Thumbs up!!!
Clark
True!
I would advise bending the tabs to the front of the shovel, the side where the dirt will be resting on, the shovels that I've worked with do a bit better for me when their tabs are bent forward, the shovel doesn't catch on the side of the holes I try to dig, and that means I can slide it deeper into a hole and get more dirt under the shovel blade since it isn't getting caught. What do you guys think?
That sounds like a good tip except that shovel is only for the videos😁Off camera it's all done with proper modern tools! 😁
As a hobbiest blacksmith, these smithing videos are some of my favorite. No excuses. About the only thing I would have done differently would have been to add push plates on the back of the spade. Don't want to dwell on how it feels on your bare feet.
Lol, that moment when he starts digging into his floor then realizes "oh crap my floor!" ;)
You've covered food gathering, farming and cooking methods, shelter building and tool making. What about clothes?
Yeah I’d like him to make shoe because he’s alway out in the forest bear feet
He wove a mask once, but it was taken down by TH-cam.
What about trapping wild animals and making farm?
@@Noob-ns9vt He has videos on trapping (the thumbnail is him eating a chicken) and farming
I really want to watch him make some kind of Shendyt with some primitive weaver.
hello everyone, What next would everyone want me to do first?
Clothes
some sort of primitive treadle hammer for forging could be cool.
A specialized curved nife to cut grass, or do clothes, or maybe a little farm whit chickens
a sword
A waterwheel to power Tools like a Hammer or a mill
I’ve been watching your blacksmithing videos since they started and I really appreciate the thought going into it. With that much steel though, I think spending some time forging a small stake anvil could significantly speed up your forging projects. Also having your anvil closer to the forge so you have more hammer time while the metal is hot. But keep the good videos coming!
At this rate, you're about a month away from having electricity and combustion engines in that jungle. You are truly an inspiration to everyone. I have learned so much from all of your videos, and I always look forward to each one. Thank you so much for everything that you have taught me. You are an absolute legend.
Electricity is not that hard
@@Emperor_of_all_Badgers he already has electricity to charge his camera batteries.
@@pintokitkat I don't know how to respond to that
Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.

Nice . I want to see the house become more.. maybe some furniture like a chair and a bed!! Hahah who else just wants more???? I get excited when I see a new video every time..
Very eager tp srr thr next video
One trick i want to impart on those who read this, that's rarely known outside people who used to make shovels back in the day. You want to make the fitting end slightly bigger than the actual metal collar, then, boil it, shrink it with some twine, and then pass it through the collar so that there's at least a finger's width. Once you've done that, you remove the twine and heat the shovel head whilst putting water on the handle. Not easy, tricky, takes some practice, but if you do it right, the wood will puff up back to its original form, and will be permanently locked in place on the shovel head.
Like i said, old,old trick that made perfect shovels.
Wait that's kind of confusing, how do you use the twine?
@@worxharder9470 its wrapped to keep compression on the wood to keep it from swelling. What the poster here doesnt tell you is that tbey are wromg. Boiling wood significantly weakens it. Boiling wood is something you should not do to your tools such as a shovel.
@@thedarkness125 thanks for the clarification, and the advice.
1 year later he landed on the moon
Checkmate NASA
10 years later he made rockets
100 year later he die
Honestly. he is gonna challenge Elon to a race to mars.
More like "100 years later, he made syringe that makes you immortal"
You are truly an inspiration. I very much envy you to be able to live off the land. And such a beautiful location with such incredible variety of resources. Fresh water, clay, plantable soil, fruit, grain, fish, game, metal ore, variety of wood and plant life, temperate climate. You have everything you need. Everything you do is to benefit yourself. And best of all...
NO TAXES !
Hi
I agree, this man has the will to live, survive, and conquer- he began exploring a nearby deep jungle between the mountain- and attempted multiple times back and forth to make the place habitable- and he did it- and he did it well! The best part would be that he was able to tame a part of Vietnam without getting brutally hurt!
Fact! Planning to live this sort of life very soon.
Awesome job. +1
SUGGESTION; The hammer you're using at 5:24 seems to have 2 flat faces. Perhaps consider re-forging it into a blacksmith's CROSS PEEN hammer, since a peen can help move metal faster and easier than a flat face.
Also, perhaps consider making a viking style post anvil, as well as a hammered stone drill and using the latter to set the former into one of those boulders youre using as an anvil stand-in ... it could help further boost your work efficiency.
I can't wait for the episode when he makes a cordless electric drill.
hahhaaha
Now that you’ve made a shovel, don’t forget to enchant it with unbreaking 3, efficiency 4, and mending!
He will need to make an xp farm to properly use the mending.
Braaaaa 😂😂
And dont forget diamond shovels!
Imagine how much could be accomplished with just one person helping him
Glad to see you making the site look more permanent. How about making furniture for the house, a real kitchen, outdoor area for relaxing. Love your sister's channel
It is amazing how people are duped by this. He changed out the metal he was hammering with a cut piece of sheet metal. Look at how much mass the metal lost and still was a perfectly small rectangle.
gniksa pots yeah I noticed that, either way he still made a shovel just skipped the step of having to hammer it flat, or maybe he could have done it off camera but it’s more likely he got the metal like you said
He probably used the chisel to shear off the excess.
@@XxpizzamonsterxX No. He. Did. Not.
dont burst the bubbel china is showing its true face
Casually switches from block to premade sheet steel.
it's called suspension of disbelief, aside from the original Primitive guy, we have to do it with every one of these channel s
@@yami2227 this is true. The jump from forging large enough junks of iron to make hammers and chisels to getting pure enough steel to form into sheet steel for a shovel is too large of a gap to jump. Those with a little forging experience know this, this the space program jokes.
@@alexanders6248 and the original Primitive channel still hasn't conquered the hurdle of getting iron tools with the resources that present themselves to him in his plot of land. When he gets there, that's when it will be impressive.
Though I do admit that what this channel has done, with the house and everything, is impressive.
Yami the original?
@@Volt64bolt th-cam.com/channels/AL3JXZSzSm8AlZyD3nQdBA.html - he's been here waay before anyone, restarted a couple of times too. The most he has managed is small bits of impure iron from his resources.
maybe finally make some sandals so u can properly use the shovel XD
I love the forging by scratch for some reason I just like seeing the metal slowly getting shaped
In his videos the metal is shaped really really fast though.
It jumps from bloom iron to an iron bar, from an iron bar to an iron plate. Just like that...
He deliberately cuts his videos in such a manner, because he switches his bloom for a bar, and his bar for a plate.
I understand why he does this, its for the content, but what annoys me is that he doesnt acknowledge it and people believe him.
Hell, even HTME is guilty of this, they have loads of weird cuts and metal changing shape drastically.
Watch a serious yt channel on blacksmithing and youll see your metal getting slowly shaped as it should be. Reality is way harder than what is shown here :)
This man's rudimentary machete more sharp than my kitchen knife
beautiful scenery, still lots of mountains and clean water
Anyone notice how he switched out the original piece of metal for a perfect rectangular plate.
Magnificent example of life! Gratitude always
You have running water. Make a water wheel and use the motion for more automated power. Like an automatic mill, a hammer or lathe.
or easier an automatic bellows
Can anyone tell me how he obtained the iron ingot in the first place? I kinda doubt he managed to mine enough iron with his primitive tools and location.
Guys never argue with wife
Or you will end up like this poor men
Sống ko tiếp xúc với đồ công nghệ coi vậy mà vui á. 😁
Yooooooo I love these forging vids bro that's so brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🇲🇦🇮🇱💪💪🇲🇦👈
I love u so much ❤️ you are my most brilliant lovely brother❤️ me god always bless u 👍
To draw out the length(width) maybe try hitting it with the corner of the hammer head on the round edge of the rock (anvil) I’ve seen some videos on this and hitting it dead on flat like that is just going to take forever apparently.
Thank you Huy! I appreciate the courage and fortitude required to choose the path of bending the world to your will and the humility with which you willingly sacrifice that experience by sharing it with the world. Your camera, editing and storytelling skills are so well demonstrated that we instantly forget it takes twice the effort to film as you work and thrice to present it so masterfully. I cant help but imagine you are in a hidden offsite hut, feverishly editing this on a water powered computer of polished bamboo, the multi-abacus core clicking and hammering in the background, forging out the next episode..keep doing what you are doing!
Okay, I know this will be controversial, but I know that he didn’t make that iron, and here’s why: (also, I do believe the first piece of iron he showed himself making)
Firstly that is not iron, that is likely mild steel. He works it at a lower temperature, a workable temperature for steel, but iron would split and crack being worked that cold.
Second, it would take HUNDREDS of hours for one man alone to make that much iron, and several hundred pounds of ore. By the time iron is smelted, you lose up to 75% of its mass, for a variety of reasons.
Third, the forging process itself was an indicator. He went from a thick chunk of square stock to a plate that looked suspiciously square. Looked to me like 4 inch x 1/4” square plate. The transition from bar to plate was a sudden cut, he showed little of the thinning of it. While forging down a bar of that size, you’d get more length than width as well. Another important thing to note is that he cut the tip to shape and well as made cuts to form the collar. If he had indeed forged it from that first bar, it would have been more logical to isolate material for the blade and collar while it was still thick, as well as to make a preform for the blade to that cutting would be unnecessary. The other issue with cutting is the fact that if he were making the iron himself, his supply would be very limited, and cutting of material like that is very wasteful.
Regardless of all these things pointing out that he buys his steel, his work is still very impressive and I greatly respect it all. Thank you for listening to my TED talk.
Jack Turner - Ya need to watch more smithing shows. There is a really good one out there about a guy who makes a suit of armor from scratch. And yes, it takes hundreds of hours and you can make make things perfectly, or almost perfectly square.
LadyGecko dude, I’ve been blacksmithing for 7 years, I know my shit, I’m well aware it can be done, but it would be absurd to do it with such minimal equipment and with no extra manpower
Thank you for making all these videos. I always think it is really relaxing and interesting to see what you are doing. Keep up the great work!
Yes everything is fine but you didn't make a plate out of a bar of metal))
You're right he definitely didn't. But it can be done.
@@selahschumpelt6302 yes( But it can be done)
oh come on dont be pesky bursting the bubbel
This video made me value my tools a whole lot more
I enjoyed it!
How about upgrading the bellows so that you can control it with your feet?
Молодец!
Hello waiting for your concrete making...please upoad fast ❤❤
seusvideos são muito bem feitos. parabéns...aguardando mais🇧🇷
You tecnically could make a steam engine now, at leas a simple one, it could upgrade your hammer power, even help you hammer tools
Cuban Castro?
@@galaxyofvid2738 yea, because only people in cuba have this last name
Everything is possible. My respect
Думаю он скоро сообразит что штык лопаты не будет работать не имея ребра жесткости по оси рукояти. Без него лопата будет постоянно снижаться в месте крепления к черенку.
That's a great channel. He is not building swimming pools.
We're really in the Iron Age now, huh?
I never miss your video..bro
Krieg like that!
Good story - I liked it, thanks! -))
I call BS on this. Yes I know it can be done. But there's No Way he turned that hunk pf steel in to a flat 1\4 inch sheet like that. With just that hammer and a rock. Come on now.
Ultra Nut he definitely buys his steel, he has too much of it to make on his own
Ultra Nut - Why would you call BS on something you admit can be done?
@@LadyGecko sure it can be done but it would take weeks to do much easier to just get a flat piece of steel and make a hammer out of that which im quite sure he did, good video nonetheless
Still crying over spilled milk, boy?
You work so hard
in 10 years , primitive skills : space programe
Welp...
NO.
I am so glad for your new videos
Stay safe and healthy
finaly, he just took iron sheet lol
Mantap im from indonesia... anjay suranjaii keren
Where did you get the iron raw stock from I thought you were on a deserted island?????!!!!!😂
nah fam he in Vietnam

Thank you!
Watching them do all these things barefoot makes me nervous haha
Yep
Ya'll are right
Nice. Been thinking how much you needed one considering all the digging you have to do. Excited for when you enter the middle ages.
the power of rain. the steel block became steel sheet.
amazing fakes.
It's possible, but making that block out of piece of slag is clearly impossible.
The rain is your salty tears, he fills a cup and drinks it now and again for a laugh.
@@wiktormerta It is possible, but not with that type of hammer hes using lol
Gracias por seguir subiendo , crak
Ну-ну. То есть он сперва сам отковал ровную пластину, причём вывел углы под 90 градусов, а потом стал срубать эти углы. Ведь все кузнецы так поступают.
Παρά πολύ δυνατές και οι δυο εντολές φίλε τις διάβασα και σε ευχαριστό
This guy is literally a game of Age of Empire by himself.
Much respect paleoiron man
This all started from an argument with the girlfriend, just go home dude, she’s wondering where you are
Very nice, thank you! :)
surely he finds something, then makes a shovel to take that something
Bạn rất có óc sáng tạo. Chúc bạn sẽ có một cuộc sống tốt đẹp hạnh phúc.
Сдается мне, что тут не все честно. Из бруска таким молотком с помощью такого горна не выковать ровную пластину. Скорее всего враньё.
Терпение и труд - всё перетрут!
Нууу, в его роликах много чего не сходится. Будем считать, что так сделать можно, но он немного упростил)))

From bar to perfectly even square edges? Suspension of disbelief dies here...
Hello bro u are such and amazing person I really like your talent
Красиво сделанно, хорошая работа, но не очень понял почему ты гвоздём не закрепил металл к древесине
Гвозди ещё не придумали в этом времени)
@@izualno_oname7234 не, ну он же делал их уже
Но шутку заценил😄
Со всем уважением, но у лопаты нет ребра жесткости (что-то вроде выемки в месте перехода от черенка на основное полотно лопаты), соответственно, черенок следует продеть дальше в это ребро жесткости и затесать чтобы его край не мешал при погружении лопаты в почву. Все это придаст жесткость лопате в месте сочленения лопаты и черенка. Также стоило немного отогнуть края лопаты, там где ногой ее придавливаешь, а то ты ведь босой, так и ногу можно порезать.
With all due respect, but the shovel does not have a stiffener (something like a recess at the point of transition from the stalk to the main blade of the shovel), respectively, the stalk should be threaded further into this stiffener and pressed so that its edge does not interfere when the shovel is immersed in the soil. All this will give rigidity to the shovel at the junction of the shovel and the handle. It was also worth bending the edges of the shovel a little, where you press it down with your foot, because you are barefoot, and you can cut your leg.
Согласен абсолютно.Но все приходит с опытом😁
Now you need electricity.. Generate that too🤔
He need to know how the generator work and how to get those resourses.
He will need copper and magnetite, which are probably inaccesible in his region. These resources have to be pure, which is also impossible for now. First much more of iron and much bigger furnaces are needed
@@wiktormerta That cool.But how and where do you get this information from?
Just asking.
@@oppoa6565 I've read much about science progress through ages. Some i've learned at school. In my opinion these are basic information and everyone should know generally how things we use everyday work
@@wiktormerta That really cool.
👍👍👍👏👏👏 hebatlah😁😊
wow wow wow what next?
да все хорошо но из бруска метала пластину ты не сделал))
С чего такое смелое утверждение? Заготовка подходит по размеру на изначальный кусок, а то что она как-бы "идеально" плоская, так это нормальное явление когда у молотка плоский боёк, так делали испокон веков и нет в этом нечего удивительного.
@@StanislavG. - канал примитивные технологии и 90 процентов минимум смотрят "превращение ' когда из заготовок получается готовое изделие и не показать его просто преступление против самого себя -значит у него это не получилось или лень))
@@Александрнч-б7р Не понимаю к чему такие ухищрения. Если бы он хотел жульничать, мог бы просто купить кувалду и дубасить себе за кадром с оператором на пару а потом показывать переходный результат. Можно подумать расплющить кусок железа это что-то такое недостижимое.
@@StanislavG. всё требует времени - блин как маленькому)) с 1 раза не всё получается - начал он свой проект из бруска - лопату брусок в пластину не получился начал рваться = показал брусок и показал как он НАЧИНАЛ его расплющивать и далее взял пластину
it's best to use a dryer stick for the shovel, cause you can put the shovel part that's in the metal into water, and then the dry stick will absorb some water and become a bit inflated, making it so that the stick doesn't fall off the metal part :)
this dude is amazing
Really it's a wonderful place dear 🏡🌄
Love the place much 🏡🌄 the greeny surrounding🌿🌴🌲🌳it's magical💚
