thats a bit more like factory production (grandfors brucks) than blacksmithed to me though, I like this setup...looks really good and makes a nice axe in a traditional manner.
i watch Tim Dyck's channel too, and he's recently tooled his enormous press with preset deformation jigs for his axes as well. This is what I thought you were going to do with that jig last video.
Good effort for a first try. Could you adapt the die to fit in your press? Just a suggestion, I’m sure it won’t be long and you’ll have mastered how to do it for the best result. Regards from Down Under.
The shorter drifts worked out great
I hate sheath day.
My back hurts just from watching you sling the 16 around.
Check out Tim Dyck he makes nice axes. He has a couple upsetters that he reworked the tooling for and he can make an axe in like 3 presses.
yeah I've seen his setup, looks like it works well

Yeah he has a sweet set-up
@@FireCreekForge That press he has is a freaky monster.
Looks great
Thanks!

Looks like they are turning out great, seeing your vision come to life is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing and god bless

Yes, I can but first I need to dial the shape in. Thanks for watching
That’s a great axe. Gives it a colonial feel. Too bad you weren’t closer we could trade tricks.
Great video!
Hellou good man.... can you make Tuatahi racing stile axe??
Maybe!
@@FireCreekForge you can do it man i knoww
If you need a striker to swing that sledge, I’m your guy: I’m huge and I work cheap
Well where were you?? Haha
Love the videos mate!
You aren't related to Stonemountain64 on YT are you?
Thanks! No, not related

You hang an axe on a haft, I believe.
@@FireCreekForge Thanks.....Hung is in there somewhere also....LOL !
