- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ก.ย. 2020
- Belgian Blacksmith Filip Ponseele demonstrates a double cleft weld in mild steel. The flux used is Quartz sand.
The two bars are upset, then tapered and cut to form two clefts. The two clefts are then pushed together to hold the two bars together.
After fixing together, the clefts can be forge welded together.

It would be interesting to cut the bars right in the middle of the weld to see if there's any inclusions where the bars initially came together
Sir Ponseele has a wealth of knowledge that is enjoyable to soak in. Thanks Joey
It's always a pleasure watching a craftsman play his craft.... this one knows what he is doing
I really really love Filips choice in hammer style. French patterns are lovely.
Awesome weld. Ever time I watch him I learn something Thank you joe and flip .....Paul⚒🔥👍
Excellent video.
I have no idea how this showed up in my recommended videos, but I'm glad I watched it.
I love these videos you do with Filip. Learning a lot. I'm still in awe he got that slug out while it was still yellow!
Incredible archival work you two are doing. Inspiring!
While watching this all I can think about is a got arthritis from fishing and this guy is going like a champ 😂. Awesome craftsmanship
Really enjoying your videos with Filip. Thanks.
It's fascinating to watch someone who is clearly a highly skilled blacksmith forge welding a butt joint. Thank you sir, it made a refreshing change after watching a growing number of cowboy You-Tubers pretending to be real engineers.
You're to kind Sir. Could not agree more
I love this channel.
Your guest moves with great speed an authority. A very confident Smith.
And he has a stellar moustache. So, there's that. :)
Hi Joey really enjoy watching Filip at work he makes it look so easy.
So thanks for sharing mate, (:
Y’all are having way too much fun!
Beautiful demonstration, excellently filmed. Very nice.
Hello from Quebec!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for making a fairly difficult weld look so easy!
Again thank you for sharing, great to watch a master at work
That was one of the coolest forge welds I've seen. 🤟 🔨On!!
Love this guys work, living the dream
I had the pleasure to met Filip in Stia (italy) years ago! What a wonderful person he is!
Ciao Davide, spero tuto bene . Piacere Filip Ponseele
@@filipponseele7346 Tutto benissimo, ci rivediamo presto a Stia! 👍👍
@@davidebkct Dio volete Mi manca Stia
Great welds ! Good instruction ! Awesome video !
Very cool gentlemen! Thanks for sharing and God Bless you guys!
Smashing good stuff gentlemen!
Joey great video love these videos
Enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
It would be interesting to examine the weld with x-ray or ultrasonic to see if there were any voids in the middle of the joint when finished
C'est mon métier et je vous remercie car c'est clairement une excellente technique.
La prochaine soudure en bout j'essaye comme ça.
Merci beaucoup pour votre vidéo.
Wonderful. Thank you for your videos!
Lovely work!!!
A master of the craft !!
This is awesome!! Very cool Sir 👍
Wow, what a treat, thank you both!
Thank you. To bad Sweden is so far
@@filipponseele7346 I agree mate!
Very interesting, thank you! Hello from Russia!
Thank you very much Andrey . Garaso Kind regards Filip Ponseele
Wow! Vraiment un beau vidéo ça!
Nice 👌 da's nogal ne krak de Filip.mooi gefilmd Joey ⚒️🔥⚒️
Very good. Well done, see you guys
Very Nice!!
That double cleft looks tricky. So informative! I appreciate the shout out from Filip. But we are not Québéquiens, rather Québécois 🤓
Mes excuses.Je ferai mieux la prochaine fois
Filip Ponseele merveilleuse démonstration de vos talents de forgeron, Mr Ponseele. Mille merci 😊
@@andrejohnson6731 De rien Toujours le bien venue chez moi
Beyond awesome !
Nice work sir
Excellent job 🙏👍🇲🇽
Ah yes... The old "scissor weld". One of my favorite
This is the comment I was looking for. Lol.
The weld lesbians made popular
Fier d'avoir un compatriote de cette classe.
Toujour le bien venue chez moi
Great stuff.
Great hammer control.
excellent technique i will try especialy with quartz sand
The next sand bender! Flying sand.
Verry nice!
I saw your thumbnail, and had to think for a second
Great video thanks. Joey, would you consider that joint as strong as modern forms of welding?
Very Very GOOD The technique The artisans The camera work.What a team .Soon you'll received I am convinced some reconnaissance for your remarkable contribution in propagating vanishing human knowledge .Not to mention your multicultural dimension English Dutch or Flemish?¿? French Italian way to go .
Oprecht Bedankt Tot Ziens
du Québec
Meci beaucoup pour ses vidéos !!
De rien
That anvil is amazing.
Just the anvil??? haha
I could watch flip all day
i was curious if there was a specific purpose or reason for the various welds, applications and such. also what would be good reading material for finding more info? love these videos
Did u do a flex test?
Would it work over length?
Thinking about packing or dropping some stuff out on a piece of land, this could save a bunch.
I am guessing this weld gives twice the surface contact area of a normal scarf weld so that in theory it should be stronger and have less chance of a fail.
It's great that you both speak such good English
I’m calling this the scissor weld
Nice weld, but wouldn't it be easier to fit up and less chance of voids if the insides of the "mouths" were beveled? IE cut with a blunt(ish)hardy.
Worth considering Thanks
To be honest...I never fast forward this video..... It was a joy watching u work....forge welding is not something I've seen up close you made it look easy....it's to bad my country don't promote these skills... would have love to learn this from some one...... forging..or blacksmithing..or whatever it's called
Where do you live? Invite us over w'll come
I'd like to see the smithy at the technical school where he teaches.
I wonder if the container labeled Sable (french for sand) was an old fire bucket.
No it's from an old kitchenset with soap, soda and sand , to clean pots and pans
the school i teached at has gasfires from Angele. Different aproch of forging
Love watching these forging videos. I hope one day to get a chance to make something. I see you throwing the sand into the fire, would it be any good to have sand on top ov the table you pound on?? I think you could keep pounding it and all the sand will be on the hot spot. Great video
I think you mis the purpose of using sand. It's put on when the metal is nearly melting to protect it from oxygen and to make the metal flowing when melting Kind regards
@@filipponseele7346 i have no idea at all. Thanks
So, thats the function of the mouse hole, holds tallow for greasing punches! That genius, the old fellas were pretty clever!
No. It's a handling or "porter hole" in British English. It from when the anvil was forged, moving it about with bars, since its too big to use any type of tongs.
The hole can be used to put grease, though that is not its original function.
It was the blacksmith from the village of Poesele near Aalter who put his grease there.His name was Adiel Afschrift, a fine craftsman
Ok, mystery solved, I have one mouse hole, small though, about 65 kg, my bigger anvil does not and I know without any doubt it is cast steel! Thats why I was curious! Smart idea to use it for grease, as long as the anvil is not too close to the forge. Thankyou both for clearing that up, I’m loving these traditional welding videos, very interesting and expanding my knowledge!
My golfers elbow, tennis elbow in the other, carpal tunnel in both hands, and my arthritis is saying fuck this. My job is hard enough. Just watching this makes me hurt lol
wunderbar
I bet using different steels & several types of welds on a small scale, would make for an interesting "damascus".
Wouldn't this method trap air in the center of it? or is the whole idea to get both Vs to bottom out on each other?
the gap insures tight fitting and surfacewelding around the bar. No air involved
Anvil grease?
How long has he been smithing. It has definitely been a long time. He’s good and fast
39 years of blacksmithing
That’s very impressive
Man I would love to go apprentice under him
Come on over wherever you are
He looks like someone wearing a spy disguise
It is i Leclerc
Are there any particular proportions to respect for the upsetting or is this something that can just be estimated?
Once you have mastered blacksmithwelding you can upset less material, if not upset enough so not to be sorry when you fail and lost to much metal
@@filipponseele7346 thank you Filip!
sir you a lot of tongs any kind and really lov it to see oh yeaaaaahhhh
What would these welds be used for?
This shape makes a bigger weldingsurface and so a stronger welding. Used in churches to connect arches with wallanchors. Wrought iron improved with forging and welding
I've never been able to weld low carbon steel to low carbon steel without sparking heat.
and people said thats just how it works with low carbon to low carbon welds.
buuuut, you're constantly welding stuff without sparking heat...
is there a secret or sweet spot before it begins to spark?
cause I've tried to find it but I couldn't even get a single tack weld without some sparks coming off it...
Sounds like you are bringing your pieces up to heat too quickly. The outside gets hot but the core never reaches welding temperature. So when you pull your piece out of the fire the core saps the heat and keeps you from welding at all but a sparkling heat
I’ve found that sparking heat is too high.what I watch for is when the steel begins to look wet and when it is indistinguishable from the coals. The best welds in mild steel are at that heat. I also usually do two welding heats and sometimes three. Flux at an orange to yellow helps.
@@veteranironoutdoors8320 so far I thought I had brought the pieces up to heat slowly enough..maybe not
I'll try to be very slow and even next time.
@@alex0dell592 im using charcoal and I usually have the steel completely covered so im going mostly blind by feel and experience.
but I'll try to see if I can bring it up to heat while leaving a small window for me to look at the steel surface.
thx
👍👍
No wonder we invented oxyacytlene and arc welding. That was a lot of work and took a long time
...oxy, welding, and beer. Myself, I think Joey would have made quicker work of it.
Took to long?????
What is the “chemical makeup” of the flakes that fly off like skin when you hit it yellow hot? And what do you call that stuff? Also, is it useful or just trash?
I dunno what the chemical makeup is, but I think most people call that "scale"
Craig Slitzer it’s ferric oxide - fe2o3
As for uses, it’s can be used for glazing pottery, and also as an oxidiser
Beautiful work but is the point of this weld
More surface so a stronger weld(for wallanchoring)
I do that too, say centimeters when I mean millimeters
The sound when you're splitting the bars with the chisel is such a sharp bang. You must have to smack fairly hard?
Как производится сварка в горне, чем защищается зона контакта?
English please Sir Thank you
forge welding
Wow, that anvil rings like a bell hope y’all were wearing ear protection!
I added a magnet today so wait for the next time to HEAR the difference
Filip Ponseele 👍
Don't see why there would not be a void in the center?!?
Weldingheat makes the inside melt aswell so no void
Benny Hill does Blacksmithing!😁
That was really cool to see but on your next videos it would be nice if you turn the sound down with your hammering it is hurting my ears so I did it on my end but I could not hear you speak
hello i installed a magnet so that should solve that problem.Thank you for your intrest. Kind regards
kunnen we zijn smidse bezoeken ? Je parle anglais et français mais mon flamand n'est pas très bon :/
C'est pas grave on vous garde quand meme. Toujours le bien venue chez moi
@@filipponseele7346 je viendrai avec plaisir dans ce cas ! Ou peut on vous trouver ?
Le village de Knesselare près de Aalter
Почему это у меня в рекомендациях?
English please Sir. Thank you
Really enjoyed the video just had to turn my volume down the reign of that Anvil is just too annoying

@2:28 before you wreck yourself
That's a nice one. Thank you
July under by keep on is
What do you mean sir??
I'm still waiting for an explanation Sir??
Sounds English is dutch🤣😂
“It’s like two snakes trying to rat one another” I thought of 69😏
It’s cool and everything but it’s all so extra.
