I combine my Screwkey Shackle Padlock, and Chain making practice, into making the Finished Piece, a Ball and Chain!
I’m using 120mm long , 10mm (3/8ths) round stock for the Chain, and the lock itself is made from a piece of Black pipe, 24mm square mild stock for the action and ends , 12mm square mild stock for the shackle arm, 6mm round stock for the rivets, 25mm x 3mm mild flat bar, a compression spring and a “bottle” screw,
The Channel I was referring to was Joey Van Der Steeg. my apologies. you can find his channel here:

Seen you in the livestream Barr run forge. Just subscribed to ya.
Great work! Tied everything in very nicely and it looks rugged! But it reminds of Addams Family Values: Morticia: So you still desire me after all these years? The old ball and chain? Gomez: Forever! Morticia: I'll got get them.
..Well done Adam !! Extraordinary build...!!!
There is always 1 way or another to overcome and a neat item to hang around the shop! May God Bless you and your family Greatly
It's actually a 20th wedding anniversary present a friend ordered for her hubby lol typical Aussie humour. Glad you liked it. Cheers
@@SpeargrassForge they will like it
Nice work! I'm not sure about steel content, but you could try annealing the ball in a good fire pit. Rake coals and ash over it, and leave it, until the fire has been out for a day. Otherwise, I think you handled this project well. Great job 👍😀⚒️
Awesome video! great shoutouts! Love the way you give credit where credit is due. Keep Heating and beating brother. 👍
I got the name wrong in the vid though! You know hot days in the forge, and lots of stuff in your head! And cheers for watching mate! I'm humbled every time one of you guys watches and appreciated my work
Adapt n overcome lol lol.
Neat project. Thanks for sharing .
Quite the beefy ball there Adam. Bet its do the trick
🙏blessings to ya now
Crawford out 🧙♂️
Great video, its really satisfying to watch heated steel being hammered and changing form. I was wondering how they make the steel ball with spikes on it, and how the actual ball is formed, I bet it's really compressed and compacted tight. Your video appeared as the top search for the term 'blacksmith ball and chain'.
G'day mate, historically, while the balls were cast, the spikes or flanges on maces and flails see brazed on. This ball would be too large for those uses, ha ha, but thanks for letting me know this is the top ranked video for that search! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@SpeargrassForge Thanks, looking forward to more blacksmithing!
Outstanding Improvement on chain making their it shows how much repetition can improve skills. Try taking that other ball and normalizing it or annealing it and see if it gets softer because I'm still like to see you do a blind rivet
Cheers mate. Yeah I will get around to it lol so many projects I want to do!
@@SpeargrassForge definitely. Too many ideas, not enough time
that ball its chain chomp from super mario bros 3
cheapest steel balls i found is on flea bay under sports - shot put
