First thing I realized when I bought a forge is that I needed to make my tools. It’s been 9 months, and I’ve got about 10 pair of tongs and a few hardy tools. They all started as bar stock or scrap metal I picked up. I wouldn’t have them if John wasn’t here to guide us. Many thanks John. You’re a treasure.
Very nice job John. Very helpful and definitely useful video explaining this John. Thanks so much. Cant wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge On. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.
Hi! look for gentil knives on YT. They have an excellent video. It took me 4 months on-and-off to make my pneumatic power hammer. *You will need to know welding* and good luck, take your time like I did. 🌻
A tool like that can be fabricated very quickly. Instead of using the hydraulic press why not just use an arc welder? Hydraulic presses are just as non traditional as arc welders.

Love this short format John, I learned a lot in just under 5 minutes. Thanks again for the terrific content and lessons
4/5ths of my time in the shop is making tools to make other tools to do small projects! Well done as always!
If you need it, and can make it, go for it.👍👍Thank you for sharing. Have a great day and stay safe.🙂🙂

Thank you John. Very helpful Demo.
If only I had that equipment, then I could make anything I need.
You got that right John, we're Blacksmiths, we make tools for everyother trade, not going to rely on someone else to make mine.
Amen that is the kind of blacksmith i hope to be i learn something new every day.
One wonders how you made the portable hardy tool. Drift?
Very nice.
Especially if you have a big power hammer and a 50-ton hydraulic press ;-)
Great video.
Army
I need a powerhammer. How do I make one?

@@Aco747lyte oh, I was mostly joking tbh, bc the title card just said "need a tool, make a tool".
My forgemate has some welding skills tho
