Fleur-de-lis Strap Hinge

- Showing the making of an 18th-century inspired strap hinge with a Fleur-de-lis finial, forge-welded barrel, and forge-welded side-member pintle. I got to do this with good friends Trae, Christopher, and Bo, our cameraman. This is one of 4 hinges for double doors Trae is building for his new woodworking shop. We didn't have a full day, so we had to hurry to finish the first hinge before dark, and I made plenty of mistakes. But the hinge turned out pretty sweet, and I can't wait to finish the project and see the hinges installed on the doors.

I wish "WE" never left this sort of thing in the past. Thanks for keeping it alive!
Agreed! Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful work, really top notch!
Nice video, very instructive, thanks for posting this!
the only thing i could focus on in the intro was that kitched aid in the background, that is a fricking beautiful machine!
Haha!
Golden at the end , beautiful work !
Glad to see that you also get ideas from one of my favorite books, "Early American Wrought Iron"
It is a wonderful book!
The best background music in the world. A happy kid having a good time.
WOW !!!!! Super Cool Craftsmanship !
Thank you!
Yeah, merci beaucoup. I'm new on this channel and I find it very interesting. I'm working next week on 3 decorative strap hing with fleur de lys end. I never welded barel before, I think I will try, Keep forging, from nord est Canada
Thank you! Good luck on your hinges!
Wow! Beautiful work! And all by hand using traditional methods! You sir, are a true craftsman! And I hope to try something like this next time I light my forge 😁👍 thank you for your inspiration! Best wishes from England
Thank you Vincent!
Saludos desde Uruguay , excelentes videos ,gracias👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ok this has got to be the most masterful shaping I’ve ever seen! You can see how many door hinges you have made! Excellent work sir!
Well thank you! Funny thing is I’m not that good, and haven’t made very many hinges 😂
Awesome work! Good job!
Enjoyed this video. Thanks
Well done sir!
Thank you Marc!
I just discovered your TH-cam channel and spent the night watching most of the posts. I look forward to seeing your future posts and projects!
Oh man! I’ve totally forgot about the joys and pains of using a pritchel hole!
Yes, if I get a couple of Jymm Hoffman's colonials, I'm gonna miss the pritchel.
Early on while working on the eye of the first piece, you said "if I was really good I could do this in 1 heat". From watching you work, you ARE really good.
I just recently found your channel, and after watching only a couple videos so far, I love watching you work! You work quickly and efficiently and produce beautiful work!
You have definitely become one of my favorite blacksmiths to watch and begin to learn from.
I've made my metal art using a torch, grinder, welder, hammer, and other tools needed in the past, but my fascination with the art of blacksmithing has increased dramatically in recent months, and I'm looking forward to producing many things using what I've learned from some of my favorite blacksmiths on TH-cam!
I'm currently trying to finish up my first coal forge build, and I can't wait to put it to use! I'll have a video of it when I can finally get it finished.
Thank you for the great content you put out,
Daniel
Man, I really appreciate that! Glad you are enjoying the videos. Best wishes on your journey into blacksmithing Daniel!
Nice work, buddy.
Thank you!
Great work! Love watching you work together and the atmosphere was calm and fun. What a funny ending this video had!
Beautiful craftsmanship. Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪
Great video. I love the craft, and love to learn from experienced hands.
This is so amazing and informative, thank you so much for making this video, I just got my first anvil upgrade from a railroad track, can’t wait to learn to do stuff like this one day
You got it! Start practicing!
They turn out very well. Very nice project. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On God Bless
Thank you Jared!
I love it! The video AND the hinge. 👍 Good work Jordan!
Thanks Brian! Can't take credit for the video- Bo is good at what he does!
Really nice work! Hope we get to see them mounted!
Thank you! Definitely! Still don’t have the doors or the other three hinges made yet lol
Wow, that's beutiful work! I've been following you on Instagram sens I do a bit of hoby forging at home, love this video!
Thank you!
Nice work. I learned a ton just by watching this. I haven't tried hinges. Just subscribed.
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it!
Keeping your cooling can on your near side of the anvil. You don't have to reach over the hot iron to cool your punch. I've been there, yes. Nice work.
Thanks. No room on the anvil stump on the near side- and eventually there won't be anywhere on it. I have been meaning to make a can that clips on the anvil strapping, just haven't gotten to it. Not a big enough problem to bother me.
Beautiful work!
Thanks!
Fantastic video, we love IT, keep it up.
Greetings from Holland.
Thank you!
Great set of hinges!
Thank you!
Well done. Great work. Looking forward to much more. God bless.
Very neat.
Again lovely video 👍👍
Thank you!
Great work, very nice strap hinges
Thank you Rob!
Awesome! Great work! I’m glad that you chose that style hinge... I’d like to try that with gate work when I get set up more! ❤️
Thanks Mick! I'd love to see what you come up with!
Love your videos! they are very inspirational
Thank you!
Amazing work! Keep the channel going, it deserves thousands times more viewers! Greetings from Ukraine! (and btw, love the background music in the end! :) )
Haha thanks!
I've followed you on Instagram for some time, this is the first video I've watched of yours. Great job, this was really interesting to follow 👍
Thanks Rob! Bo is doing such an excellent job on these videos. I'm proud of them!
@@AxeAndAnvil I'm looking forward to watching the backlog of videos I've missed, keep it up. I love traditional iron work.
Nice work ,a fine workshop and good strikers. Just one remark? When you cut you have to finish the cut by lifting the shisel so to make sure you do not finish abruptly or your fleur -de-lis could snap of. Kind regards from Belgium Blacksmith Filip Ponseele- Knesselare
Thanks Filip!
Are these hinges easier than the barrel hinge
Not sure I understand- the socket in the strap on these is also called a barrel. Do you mean like a jointed hinge that has knuckles from both sides that are cut together? In that case I’d say yes.
Great video sir, I really like that hinge and the decision on the pintle. What was the book you where looking at early in the video?
Thanks Eric! Two books. "Early American Wrought Iron" by Albert Sonn, and "Colonial Wrought Iron: The Sorber Collection" by Don Plummer.
@@AxeAndAnvil I'll have to see if the library can bring them in, I don't have an extra house payment just lying around unfortunately.
I don't either- but they are worth every penny- especially the Sonn book. I found a copy for $40 a while back, and Abebooks has it for $65 right now. It is a HUGE book. The Plummer book is definitely pricey at $215- my copy was given to me.
@@AxeAndAnvil I must have not looked in the right place, I found one for $200 and the other was$400-800
Hey if you would be so kind to name some books you use for inspiration
There’s another video on the channel all about some of my favorite books
