    Pro tip: small anvil right on/next the forge just for setting the weld, save yourself 3-6 seconds of heat loss...

    It's funny how easy it CAN look, there is alot of factors that can mess it up. I am still practicing, im so so. Thank you Roy.

    too hard bangs for the initial weld can let the metal jump apart again.

    Hey Roy, thanks I got a chuckle when I walked in and turned on my laptop while having lunch. I've just spent the morning attempting to forge weld chain links and only had one partial success. I think the oxygen may be an issue. Many thanks

    "I wouldn't trust my life to that weld" honestly is the best policy. That's what makes your videos great

    I tried forgewelding an foldet axe head. Therefor i inserted a damascus bit for the edge. The damascus is fine but it did not stick with the foldet parts of the axehead. As i suspect after watching the video it took to much time from forge to anvil always again. Thanks these are helpful informations!

    Definitely too much Flux

    I forge weld every day. The issue I have , for some reason is forge welding RR spikes? I clean them and prep them but for some reason I’m successful only about 50% of the time

    Last weeks video and this one makes me convinced i had the blower cracked too high last time i forged. Thanks for all you do Roy.

    Excellent. I am starting to become more confident about forge welding, thanks for the good pointers!

    Scale and too much oxygen in the fire seem to be major culprits indirectly behind being too slow to set the weld. That's pretty much my take from these teachings.

    I've been strugling with welds just exactly the way you explain them mistakes. Thanks a lot sir !

    Very informative, I have little to no experience with forge welding. I learned a lot Roy, take care and God bless brother!

    I just started dabbling in it recently and I had the holiday inn express mindset. Boy was I wrong!😂

    I think you just covered almost every mistake I have made! I’m sure something I have cocked up you have never even thought of but I will keep trying and after watching this success might not be too far away! Thank you!

    Fantastic description for troubleshooting your welds. I wish I had seen this years ago when I had welds frustrate me almost to tears.... Great one Roy!
