This is a good demonstration of how the keel blocks they used on USS New Jersey were able to take the weight of a battleship. Massive pieces of wood are surprisingly strong.
Timber railroad trestles survived as long as they did for a reason. Only recently have train weights (at least in Notth America) started exceeding what wood can feasibly handle
A redwood tree can reach a mass of over 400 metric tons without collapsing on itself.
Australian Jarrah is even better as it resists rot and bugs more than most and is interesting to cut up. Strong, beautiful, useful and burns clean and hot when used for firewood.
@@ebnertra0004 morelike that wood sturdy enough is slow growing and becomes endangered.
The size also helps distribute the weight. If I did the math correctly its really only getting barely over 2 tons per square inch.
What an absolute BOSS of a setup. 300 T press, robot cameras, Fallout control panel, bunker walls.
Excessive TH-cam revenue will do that
Dream setup for work too
and we all remember when this channel wasnt much. hard to believe crushing shit and being the first, can get you rich LOL
@@JJC991 Well earned revenue.
@@blaisep112 crushing things doesn't warrant a 7 figure annual income, I don't care what you say
Respect for the wood that defeated the 300 ton press.
And a drill bit.
There is a reason we use Oak wood blocks to drydock heavy ships on.. :D
Is that block oak?
@@joels7605 hard for me to tell, but to me it looks like maple. Maple as it happens is also strong as fuck
@@NOLNV1 Yeah maple is pretty bad. Feels like you're cutting concrete if you ever try to cut one down with a chainsaw.
I was just wondering what wood has such a high compressive strength. It varies quite a bit based on wood species. It could be some type of wood they only have in Finland.
@@joels7605
It looks like ash wood to me (it often has the darker core). It is a common tree in Europe, at least until some fungus from East Asia/Japan started to kill them off over the last two decades, so that many forests are in critical condition now. Ash is usually harder/stronger than oak. I think of the European woods there's only beech that's even harder than that. Because of that it's used for furniture, floors (I have ash wood flooring for example) and tools (like handles of hammers, axes, rakes, aso.)
I've seen ship yard where they used Lignum Vitae
Gotta love how Hanna looks at Lauri, predicting what he's gonna say and looking so proud 😁 Happy for you guys. This was a great video!
Thats what true love looks like... they are perfect for each other.
Yup, I was thinking, I want someone to look at me like that!
I do miss Anni's maniacal laugh from the early videos though
This is a good example why miners preferred wooden timber supports to metal in the tunnels. Wood gave them an audible as well as tactile signal if the roof was about to cave in or the timber props were under stress, they 'sang' when tapped. Creaked and groaned as the pressure increased giving miners time to clear out, metal props didn't show any indication of an imminent fall
Been watching this channel since 2016, the evolution of this channel has been crazy 👍
Same 🎉
Same here, it's been a fun ride.
HPC has come so far, while never changing at all. I love it!
First time I found Lauri was the red hot metal verses the frozen lake. Was shocked that the frozen lake won!
Where is Anna?
Some channels give you an affiliate code to get a discount on a VPN or some food subscription, this guys got one for a 300 ton Profi press Lmao
As long over 30% of you keep watching the extra content animals we keep making them! If not I still start to make them now and then :D I think it's nice addition and tradition, maybe every video is too much but maybe once a month?
Extra context! I always watch!
100% of WoodworkerDon watches 100% of every video. Usually more than once. 😂👍👏
Extra content animals are awesome thank you for letting us see the new boss today😂
You should level that wood surface, you have tools for metal working. Surely you can use some tool to level piece of wood, to even that load on it.
edit: That square piece was leveled, tells how strong wood is. Amazing
@@mapl3af They are extremely dangerous, so they must be dealt with!
Absolutely hilarious that my son mentioned at the beginning that he missed the dangerous creatures that had to be dealt with, and then you bring it back in this video. Love it
In 1967 I worked at the Long Beach factory of McDonnel-Douglass Aircraft Company and served a 5000 ton press one of the biggest on Earth. Had four big rams and a heated platen for molding plastic laminations. The surface was so smooth and parallel you could set an apple on it and smash the apple flat and the table was literally dry afterwards.
But the real question is, did you ever have any dangerous dragons that threatened to burn the place down and have to deal with them?
Am I mistaken or is there a 50000 ton press in Germany?
@@christianellegaard7120 Yeah, I think he forgot that 'one of the biggest on earth' 60 years ago is a lot different from today, lol. Tends to happen when you're that age.
lol.., well that's one cool way to make applesauce for grandmas porkchops.
@@christianellegaard7120 Idk my but job has a 16000ton and 10000ton press
That very resilient, press-beating, drill-beating lump of wood deserved its own pride of place in your workshop, on a plinth.
you've met your match. time to upgrade to that 600T press. XD
Years ago, he dreamed of acquiring a 1000-ton press, but it never materialized.
@@aexetanius At some point you just get diminishing returns as the 300 ton will crush just about everything and a 1000 wouldn't really gain much.
Yeah, but he didn't just want to crush things. He wanted to make completely flat pancakes of everything
Maybe at 600M subscribers 🤪
Back in the 90's I worked in as a tool maker for a company the UK. In our press shop we had several 1000 ton presses, during maintenance and repairs on the press. The top plate, which was 12ft x 8ft, was chocked with two timbers one on each side. They were approx 6ft long and 2ft square and cut from some kind of hard wood. They were regularly tested and stopped the press every time, and had done for many years.
We had an exchange student from Finland last year and the wee lass reminds me of her. Have always loved this channel.
For all those interested.
Wood can withstand enormous compressive loads, as is clearly demonstrated in this video. Wood is an excellent building material. Lightweight, easy to process, affordable.
There is a nuance. Wood actively changes its size depending on humidity. The wood also rots.
Wooden buildings can last a very long time, but... If the building is not taken care of and it is left without normal maintenance and operation, then the building will become unusable very quickly.
also IT BURNS way too easily
@@truckguy6666 yeap. Wooden buildings burn really well, especially in hot, dry weather. Although modern buildings made of concrete often use flammable thermal insulation, wallpaper, wall paint, all sorts of suspended ceilings, etc.
The fire hazardness of buildings is, in fact, more about compliance with rules and regulations.
But, yes, it is much easier to make a concrete building fireproof.
Mold is the biggest killer of modern super thermal insulated wooden houses, they NEED mechanical air circulation or it will mold very quickly. Around here they built a huge school campus from logs and power loss from a thunderstorm shut off the AC during summer months when there werent anyone in the building... Yea it got moldy during those months. Sad part is many kids got sick from mold of the old school building, and mold was one of the reasons the new school was built. And now the new building is the same.
@@Mortalomena In the area where I live, it used to be quite popular to make the foundation and first floor of a building out of concrete/brick/stone, and build 1-2 floors of wood on top of it. My grandfather's house was made according to this principle. Despite the very high humidity in the summer months (sometimes fog can last a week), houses of this type are little susceptible to rot and mold. The balcony railings have been in place for 20 years. The beams of the balcony itself, the roof, etc. have been in excellent condition for almost 30 years. They suffered more from beetles and their larvae. One beam was almost eaten to an unusable state.
In my opinion, building individual housing from wood is quite normal. The owner himself will monitor the condition of the building. But public places definitely need to be built from something more durable and less difficult to maintain. I'm not young and I'm from Russia. In villages where schools were built from wood, those schools collapsed in the 90s. And where they were built from bricks or concrete blocks, schools still stand. A relatively short period of time without maintenance or with poor maintenance kills wooden buildings.
Фонтанная ул., 61, Владивосток, Приморский край, 690091
Google this building as an example.
This type of house design was popular at the beginning of the 20th century in the Far East.
Also, due to the crazy loads that wood can hold, it can be explosive when the tension of a crack or a knot in dry wood is released. Part of why we always wear face shields when turning on a lathe, because the most unassuming piece of oak can just pop off a chunk, even without a "catch", and break your nose, cheekbone, orbital socket, or even your jaw.
Quadruple the upgrades! Press Control, Main Cam remote start, Up Close ASMR mic, AND PipBoy 9000 Bob Bot Dynamic Action Cam! Good job guys. Loving this!
I do a lot of logging and tree felling and those cracking sounds made me want to roll my chair back from my screen. Great sound improvement there!
You should've made a separate channel called "Block of Wood Channel" where you travel around Finland to different workshops and try to find something to destroy it.
you cant be older than 14 with a comment like that lmfao
Hardwood is no joke. It has been used in dry docks for massive ships for centuries. Pound for pound it gives steel a run for its money.
Pound for pound it is stronger than steel. The reason they stopped using it was because of the volume to strength ratio.
If you make energy storage flywheels out of three materials they will hold different amounts of energy if spun to just short of destruction. Assuming Steel Aluminum Wood disks wood always stores the most energy but it has to be spun in a vacuum or it will burn up.
I dont know about steel but some wood types are significantly harder than aluminum.
Imagine the old kind, harvested from proper trees only, compact rings or not depending, seasoned, treated. Galeons had multiple layers of that.
@@Thomamps well also the fact that wood is fuel for fire.
You’re CRUSHING IT man! 😁
I've been involved in transporting steel products for years. It's amazing how a living thing can be easily cut up for furniture and a house, then support so much weight on the back of a truck for years and years.
This is why you see wood blocks or piers holding up such extreme weight, cranes, battleships, buildings etc. Incredible. That press has some extreme strength.
My BF has a 167 ton press. One day while goofing around we set a piece of 6x 6 oak in the press and started to squeeze. When we got to about 100 tons the piece exploded like a stick of dynamite, becoming another item for our “let’s not do THAT again” list!
Definitely don't try this with Osage Orange / bodark wood once it's dried out. There's a reason native Americans used it for making their bows. 😂
As a person that heats his northern Wisconsin home with wood it was interesting to see all the water come running out of some of the wood blocks.
Yeah, I thought that was amazing also… But I think those are pretty freshly sawn logs… And that’s one of the difference between that juicy wood and that big wood block. That big wood block seems to be pretty well dried out.
Here's a thought, back in firefighting practice we were taught that after a fire a wooden beam supported building would be comparatively safe to enter since the wood burns inside out and in a usual extinguished house fire the actual burn down of the beams would be relatively minor. Whereas a steel beam supported building would be considered mostly unsafe since more often than not the steel would have lost its temper. In essence, how does burnt wood and steel compare to its unburnt counterpart?
Also that stone and wood clip is great for showing why you want to support stuff with wood rather than bricks or stones.
Except rot
@@Spagyr like steel does not rust away
@@repodog6191Steel wasn’t compared
Wood doesn't burn from the inside out. It needs oxygen.
@@UserNameAnonymous I'm assuming he meant outside in, so the core of the wood is still more or less OK, it's just scorched on the outside.
I think I'm having a CRUSH on Hanna. 13:56
We need playdoh animals back! That's great way to finish every episode :]
^ This.
I think it would be funny to see them squashed with a Monty Python foot attachment for the press!
@@tomee6yes!

I miss that too.
This has to be one of the most entertaining videos you've posted yet! Love it!
I absolutely adore Ana's sincerity and enthusiasm! 😂

Your English is superb. Fun channel. Thank you
The wood block was, like, "You Shall Not Pass". Lol
More like "You Shall Not Press!"
More like: you woodend dare!
“One does not simply crush a wooden block.”
The drill breaking was the icing on top.
@@eds1942 One Block Ruled Them All.
you can see why they used thick wood beams in mines to support the roof.
I love how the face is the last to go when the concrete cylinder was crushed!
The plank popping out from the middle at 12:33 flipped you off...
🤣🤣🤣
Having worked on some of the biggest presses in the US I'm not surprised the block held up.
That wood block said, "Screw you, you wanted me here, I am staying."
Wood Block for the HPC Hall of Fame
The evolution of your equipment into this hardcore science lab is awesome
I have been watching you off and on for years now. I love how much this channel has grown, how you have used the success to reinvest and improved your videos. Hope all is well and you continue to grow. -onelove
"Hello Profi Press? I need a bigger press again..."
Very satisfying to watch such skilled craftsmen
The way that the TOP frame of the press flexes... WOW !
Very interesting demonstrations! Classy setup! “Cinematic”, continuing to raise the bar!
Very surprising strength to that wood. Please do demo pressing the block from the side.
Good habit to always wear your glasses (startled when that bit broke). Thank you!
I'm always impressed of how strong wood can be
Did they use to have wood dentures ?
When I was young the girls used to say that to me - not so much now😂
@@pinkyellowblue007 No because they wooden work😂
@@malcolmwhite6588 😂😂
I guess there are certain blue pills for that problem 😉
This video is absolute proof that for every person out there, there is at least one person who has the same kink .
And that , my friend , is heart-warming .
Yes! Old style HPC video finally here!
11:10... try starting the hole straight next time and you wont break your drill bit lol. Great video, loved it.
I saw that drill bit snapping about 10 seconds before Lauri did lol.
thank you so much !! that was quite entertaining!! you two are fantastic together !! 😃
Wow! Wood is strong, we should start to use that to hold up buildings!……. :^)
And Shitholes (Outhouses) too. 🫡😉
There are always studies on using wood as structural components, but wood is very susceptible to environmental conditions. Humidity, chemicals, not to mention it's flammable too. These are things that concrete doesn't have to worry about all that much.
@Eichro WRONG. Concrete, without care, is susceptible to water ingress even without rebar being involved. If you think cement is so impervious, go ask all the residents in Champlain Tower South...
Wood, without treatment, weathers (most species, anyways. some are very hardy even raw). Though there are many, MANY ways to treat _and_ seal wood. Modern house lumber is NEITHER treated nor sealed. Hell, you're lucky if the contractor uses properly treated wood for the roof...
@@ashkebora7262 there's multiple types of concrete
@@Spaceman0025 Yes, and buildings are usually made of the cheapest. If it's not built to-purpose, specifically, with that cement chosen, it WILL be the cheapest.
Yet again, let me remind you: They don't even mix cement that's on the beach differently to resist the saltwater. Not on the average building. Do not use the example of military or government contracting to stand in for commercial development.
There's a _functional_ reason commercial development is always cheaper, too...
Nature really got it right with structural engineering
Crazy how far you have come. Good job man!
I relied on timber posts to keep me alive my whole working life in coal mines. They will fail if the load becomes high enough, but the creaking and clicking gives you fair warning to get clear. The posts we used were mainly spruce or pine logs, stripped of bark and from 9 to 12 inches [220 to 300mm] in diameter, A lot of the strength derived from the concentric growth structure in the log and cut timber was not used These were often used to provide a centre support under 150 x 100mm rolled steel joists, in a three piece arch form when the arches started buckling and failing under load. To spread the load, posts were set with cross grained foot and top wood blocks. Over a day or two, you could watch the RSJ folding flat over the top of the post which stood the load remarkably well .... unless mother nature decided to bring the full load of overlying rock to bear [called 'getting a weight on'] and then it was time to make yourself scarce till it all settled down, .... or the roof met the floor ... ;
I laughed so much when then drill bit snapped love how far the channel has come your awsome
I love this channel. I’ve seem others do hydraulic press videos but you guys are the OG and this new set up is top notch 🤘
I think I've found a new way to split firewood 😂
In all fairness log splitters do have a hydraulic ram.
@@Imnoexpert69420 and yet this setup is sharper and better lubricated than some log splitters I’ve seen.
I really appreciate how you continue to upgrade your studio for our benefit. You are doing a great job of continuing to offer us more new content and even better shots! Thank you!
Those 3D printed mounts for the Laptop and the Tablet look so nice on the wall. Makes the whole thing look so futuristic. And the camera movement during the crush is just *Chef's kiss*.
Bob the Bot is an amazing new addition to the videos. Fantastic. He's very similar to the robots on the assembly lines where I work.
I was a carpenter before I was a machinist. Saw that broken bit coming. You were putting some serious bend on that thing.
Also, Compressed wood = TOUGH
You both are awsome ! She is so cute and he's a steely-eyed missle man. Great channel !❤
_"Hey! You're gonna need a bigger hydraulic press!"_
What you did was execute a REALLY good test case for Profi. Definitely discovered an edge condition of the machine. I'm certain that this will help Profi figure out how to prevent that from happening in the future. OR... they might just say this is something that is out of scope for what the machine is designed to do. Either way, it's a great test case!
At the start I thought your bulletproof windows were both cracked, but it's just the back of the lights that I'm seeing!
You two are great! Thank you for your content ❤😊❤
it would be hilarious if she hid a ball bearing or a desk of cards in the extremely dangerous beasts, and didnt say anything
This needs to be done 🎉 surprise!
I was privileged to see the most powerful press in America in action. I was a guest. The ground shook and there were flames. The press was about two stories high. Impressed.
I always assumed he'd have some impressive wood. I was not disappointed. Thanks for squeezing your wood for us 😊
Perfect mixture of theatrical ,speech and presentaion ,very enjoyable ❤
This is how they support giant ships on simple blocks of wood
3:36 SO THIS IS HOW AUDREY PLAZA MAKES WOOD MILK!!!😮
Haha was looking for this comment!
@@matthewmcdonald9238 "wood milk" ... 😳 😉
@@Rosi_in_space she can coax milk from wood almost like magic.
Highly entertaining. Love the commentary, and that Hannah is in your videos more now too. Thank you! You should have done some press runs with the grain of the wood perpendicular to the press direction of travel.
I love the production improvements! Really great to see you grow!
This was your best video, by far!!! Love the new improvements!
aika hyvä toi setuppi
Joo vähä vielä reeniä robotin ja ohjelmistojen kanssa niin on aika kohdillaan
Its videos like this that make youtube worthwhile.
How much rosin can you get from pressing and ounce of marijuana with that bad boy?
It is very critical that the two faces of any part ....the top and the bottom ...BE 100% PARALLEL to each other and the centerline 100% perpendicular with the grain. The first sample at 2:50 ....the faces are NOT parallel. This is 100% wrong to begin with. The one side fails immediately compromising the entire part. 5:51, the same problem.
ALL the samples need to be in the proper physical condition.
Putting the plate on the top of the big block changes the test immediately, AND the top and bottom faces do not look like they are 100% parallel ....and then there is the flexing frame. THAT is another problem.
This is NOT an accredited test method. It is "MAKE-SHIFT". No compression-testing machine would ever "bend" like like this.
.
This channel went to another level, yet again ! WELL DONE !!
Very impressive equipment, but the assistant he has is out of this world. WOW!!!
You guys rock!!
So when are you going to do some crushing videos for us that are in IMAX???
Your production quality is off the hook!
I did electrical maintenance on robots similar to yours.
They take years to master.
You are doing great with it!!
This channel has come a long way. Good to see you guys putting money back into the channel :)
It is an awe-inspiring sight to see how a low-density organic material can withstand such tremendous stress with such grace. It's a little compulsive to have to tear it apart until the remaining material finally succumbs to the 300 tonnes of load.
You two are so cute! The family that crushes hard things together stays together.
Some VERY satisfying footage here. And great sound.
Your setup is getting insanely good. Videos will be better than ever!
Next can you do one with flat earthers? They shouldn't be hard to find, there's a lot on instagram and tiktok
Salute to your hardwork and dedication.
thank-you very much boris , from usa...!!....and olga too !!
It is fascinating how the press squeezes the little bit of ambient water out of the wood!
It's always fun bringing new toys to the channel, especially when your wood is that hard. Have fun while you can...
incredible growth .. and equipment!!! and bro the way she looks at you in some of those shots when youre both in frame..!.. lucky man!!
Love the additions. Especially the high quality audio. I think a bullet time set up would be nice
This is quite a awesome new setup you have good job congratulations
I dont know why.... but I really love this channel! I cant ever get enough of things being crushed!
I am so happy you were able to extract your broken auger bit :)
Wood is one of the most impressive natural living things imo. Strong as hell, defies gravity, gives structure to trees and also transports nutrition throughout the tree. Amazing.
Great way to dry wood!! 😁
That's one boss of a camera-rig!! 👌
This is so cool to see wood compressing, I didn't expect it to look like that. Very Cool!
