- In this video, I make a Steel Knot by Bending Rebar, without using heat. This knot will be used in a future Industrial Style shelf bracket.
The knot is called a larks head knot.
I love the look of industrial-style furniture and rebar with knots fits right in with the look I like.
I hope you enjoy my video of the project, it was a lot of fun to make.
The main tools used were a Hammer and a bench vise.
Tools / Supplies, I often use are.

Note: When you bend metal/rebar, you naturally weaken it. Bending it cold will normally cause fine cracks, and it may even break if you put enough strain on the rebar or bend it in the same place too many times. Do not rely on cold-bent steel/rebar to support a load.
easy when you know how .. great entertainment .. . loved every second .76 years old and learning something new every day .
Same age and learning more from You Tube than I did in all my working life. I learned a lot on my jobs from older experienced people and that was way more important and useful than all of my school years!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.

@@GavinClarkdiy very cool to see this Sir. Thanks for sharing.
I've been working concrete for 25+ years and I've never seen this done. I kept waiting for the SNAP! I can see this as handles on a smoker or tons of other stuff!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment, yes I have had some rebar that is terrible to work with over the years.
I cut and bend rebar for a living and never believed this could be done. Probably schedule 40
We've got vloggers, cars guys and nearly every music artist in the world on TH-cam, but you sir are my favorite
Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it.
There are metal workers, and there are artists.
.........and sometimes they are the same.
Very entertaining. Thanks for the video. 👍

Video là cách tạo nút thắt mà không cần nhiệt, vâng bạn nói đúng có thể làm nhanh hơn, nhưng đối với video này, đây là cách tôi đã làm. Cảm ơn bình luận của bạn.
Your thumb nail worked perfectly sir. Never clicked on a video so quickly. Had to find out how in the hell you did that. Bloody legend.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
I have been tieing rebar for 30+ years and my knots never look that butyfull, great video.
Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it.
@@GavinClarkdiy could you cut out a piece from the knotted portion and take high definition microscope pictures?
I'd love to look at the effect the work stress is doing without heat.
@@jonathangarzon2798 Hi Jonathan I am not using any of my rebar works, as structural stuff or to swing off, they are generally ornamental shelves etc, (I would be using much better quality steel if I was). Feel free to do these tests yourself on some rebar where you are, I don't have a microscope photo camera. BUT you can very closely see the most stretched bit of this rebar when I move the finished knot super close to the camera. I have no doubt in my mind that the rebar is weaker where I have bent it, if I bend it a few more times I can break it. Hope that helps
As a concrete construction worker, that would love to put a personal touch on my workshop at home...you are the man with ideas. I love it!!!! Keep it up!
Thank you, I guess you would get plenty of off-cut rebar to play with. Thank you for your comment.
@@GavinClarkdiy Oh yes, plenty, from 8mm up to 25mm hahaha
@@MikevanHattum Awesome, Have fun mate.
Now that’s really cool ! I’m gonna try that tonight on some old 3/4” rebar I’ve had lying around for years. I guess I’m gonna need a big ass vice though 😳
Thank you very much, I wish you the best for your project. You may need a long bit of pipe to bend it with too.
@@GavinClarkdiy yeah a long bit of pipe haha
great work Sir, you had me scratching my head at the start!!
Thank you very much. I am happy that you liked it in the end.

Thank you very much, I wonder how long it will take them to work it out. Thank you for your comment.
I think he has much better quality rebar than I've come across.
Avoid Chinese rebar
I love your knots and plan on reproducing a variety of them. I had shoulder surgery a week ago, so I’ve got months to plan it all out. You’re an inspiration!

Thank you I am glad you liked my video, I hope you heal up very fast, wishing you the best.

Great video, very inspiring! I can imaggine different fences and railings with elements interconnected like this, and also using diamond tread plates to make, say, spiral stairs in the same style.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment. You have some awesome ideas.
Bender Bending Rodriguez would be proud
Very nice video sharing my dear friend
great tie-down loops for a trailer or truck bed
Great stuff Gavin, it suggests either an ornate door knocker, or a heavy duty gate latch using two or three heavy duty ring bolts. One would never think of rebar as an art material, but it surely is. ✌❤ Bob.
Glad you liked it Bob, you have some very good ideas for it's use, this knot I have just made will go into industrial style shelf brackets, I will get the full video of that up in a week of so. Thank you for your comment.
Amazing work. I keep thinking for Superman that would be like a piece of string.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it. Superman would bend that around his finger to make this, Hahaha. Thank you for your comment
That's called a clove hitch my favorite knot never seen it in steel. Thx buddy ✌️😀🇺🇸

Human born to be creative
Thank you very much.
I saw a demonstration at a trade show in Atlanta, this guy was making flower's out of rebar...with no heat...I wouldn't thought it possible!
Nice job, really enjoyed 👍
Thank you very much. I am happy that you liked it.
Now THAT is something!
Thank you.
Why someone gives a thumbs down? He or she must be unhappy, sad, miserable. Fill sorry for this person. Most definitely can’t change a light bolt . A like this mans work. Good on you mate. Negative people are not welcome.
Thank's a lot mate, everyone has different ideas and dislikes, all is good, I thank you for your support.
71 and learning. Loved the guitar music also.
I expected you to turn into The Incredible Hulk and make the knot with your bare hands, but this method is great too!
Next time! Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it.
As per my comment 3 seconds ago.
'Waiting for the strongman to make his own version"
The Hulk turning up would be eSpecial
Totally cool! Love to see a forged blade with That at the handle. Bloody marvelous.
I already figured out in what manner you had to go about this being it was a cold bend and not heat induced. However, how you actually went about it, I have no choice but to watch the rest of the vid. Love the wholesomeness idea of this vid. 💪
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Wow thanks for sharing that, very nice sir .
Thank you very much.
I'm really enjoying these knot works. Trying hard to find thin rebar here so I can give this a shot. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much. You could just play with round bar for a start, OR cementing/concreting mesh use small rebar in it, I have cut it out to get various sizes of rebar, it is a bit of work but the rebar is there. The people that lay the mesh may be able to help you get small rebar. Hope that helps a bit.
Thank you, it was both entertaining and interesting! It seems to me that those knots could be very useful and practical for things like some heavy duty rebar hangers to hang things from or maybe use a couple for a good base to hang a heavy duty shelf and probably many other things I haven't thought of yet. 👍
Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it. You have some good ideas, I wish you the best with your projects.
Lovely, that I'm going to do and use it on some projects. Wonderful looking effect on metalwork!
Thank you very much, I wish you the best for your project.
As a welder/fabricator for 35+ years, this is called "welder hands"...the ability to bend metal without using machinery, or heat, it's just a really cool skill...the down side is that you keep breaking shit around the house....my wife won't let me touch the can opener, and other things...for some reason plastic and wood often break when I mess with it. My wife also coined the term "welder hands"
That's Gold !!
"Welder hands" love it, I fit with that name too, it's not us mate, the should make their wood and plastic strong like steel and we would not have a problem. Thank you for your comment.
@@GavinClarkdiy 😎 keep up the great work.
Me: Tell me you’re Australian without telling me you’re Australian.
Gavin: Today we are gonna bend metal without heating it.
Me: That’s not possib…. Well played sir.
Hahaha, thank you very much.
@@GavinClarkdiy ñnm
I felt chagrined once I saw how it was done. Well done!
My brain said tie a knot and I felt rather dumb when I realised there was an alternative way of looking at it. I love knots having been a sailor and outdoorsman but now I'll always be looking for ways to deconstruct knots to simpler elements. I now hope to create a collection of 'impossible' metal knots.
Thank you very much, I am glad you found something interesting in my video.
Very. Imma make about 20 an see how they sell.
Honest Simple Craftsmanship is the new Gold.
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
Amazing how it is made, I kept thinking and thinking how is done, and is very simple, not easy, but simple.
Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it.
Muy bueno inventó excelente pero me gusta más esa prensa vieja que es puro acero
That knot looks really great, and your love and enthusiasm for what you are making shines through. When you slid the bigger rebar through the eye it got me thinking.. I reckon it would make a really nice railing around a deck or balcony. It would be time consuming and a lot of work, but definitely a conversation piece. Thanks for the video, I'm gonna like and subscribe and look forward to seeing more of your clever work 👍
Thank you very much, I am glad that you liked it. You are right it would look awesome on the railing. Thank you for your comment.
Очень нужная штука. Давно о такой мечтал
Terrific! Brilliant!!Amazing!! Original!! Cheap and Luxury!!! Jesus bless you!❤️

Cool knot.
That's one hell of a workbench and vice.
Thank you very much, I am happy that you liked it.
Been watching "Mr In Between". Now I think all Aussies are hard core mercenaries. This knot is surely going to be used for whacking someone... I just know it!
Not that knot, I have a bigger one for the problem people, hahaha. Thank you for your comment
The thumbprint images of your beautifully formed 'ropework' were gorgeous and intriguing, ensuring that your video would be fully viewed.
To have achieved such perfect 'ropework' with cold steel certainly gets one's attention, and if I weren't already a subscriber I would have immediately subscribed!
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
It's what caught my eye!
Awesome! I can't wait to see where they go. I could also see them in a camp kitchen used as pot hooks - a few of them hanging on a bar like you show at the beginning and end of your video,
That's a great idea, pot hooks nice and rustic. These ones are going in shelf brackets. Should get the video up in a few weeks. Thank you very much for your comment.
Good idea. I wasn't sure where I could use these knots. Possibly hooks for hanging pots in the kitchen also. My cabin dosen't have a lot of storage space for them.

Hola que bien, de verdad pensé que lo hiciste calentandolo....es una idea muy original .
Awesome!more videos pls.🇵🇭
Thank you very much, I appreciate your comment.
How do you determine the length you marked before making the 2nd bend, is it based on rebar size being bent or desired diameter of finished knot opening, thx great vid!
Well, I basically guess it, The rebar varies in size as sometimes there are more or less lumps on the sides. I generally put together the number of bits I need to bend it over and bend the tape measure over it and take a measurement. It does not have to be perfect, it is better to be a bit long than short, as it will just make the curve over the bars sit out a bit more. Hope that helps a bit.
@@GavinClarkdiy You guess it? Wow You have a very good "eye-meter" bro! I've tried but I get weird results all the times: it is either too big or too short for the purposes I have... not precise enough
I always measure what I am doing so if it does not turn out I know if it should be shorter or longer than the failed one. I am not a Blacksmith but they do most things like this without measurements.
I have a bubble in one eye and a crosshair in the other .
@@GavinClarkdiy
As you were marking it off my brain was saying 7 times the bar thickness. 5 for the wrap plus twice the bar. I wonder if you somewhere close to 2"? Great content anyway, thanks for posting this up.
That was fun, thanks for sharing this interesting technique...Be Well...
Thank you, I am glad you liked it. Keep safe.
🙂 👍
Fantastic bit of work there.
Thank you! Cheers!
Clever - thank you. 👍👍😎👍👍
Thank you
How long was the distance you marked off starting off at 2:01 minutes to get your second bend. Real nice job by the way.
I think it was 52mm, but basically it is always a bit of a guess, I am using 7mm rebar, and that varies a bit in size too, plus some of the bars have more knobs on it that others, and that all plays with how long you need, but it does not have to be a perfect length, the curve will just be a bit tighter or looser if you are out a bit. Hope that helps.
@@GavinClarkdiy Thank you. 👍

No, actually I never have wondered how to make that knot in steel, but it was an interesting video. What I did wonder is how much time was spent figuring how to do it, ten how may tries to do that and then why?
That’s how great Ideas get started
I made these for industrial style shelf brackets, the video should be up very soon, It always take a few goes to get it right, but then it is in your head for future projects. Thank you for your comment.

@@GavinClarkdiy my 2 career paths in life were automotive repair and metal fabrication starting with automotive but my love of fabrication has always been my passion.
