Excellent beginner project! I’m going to use it, friend of my wife who is very interested wants to come and play in my forge. I am by no means a blacksmith or teacher but this is a great start that even I could teach someone to do. Here’s hoping , should be easy enough and something she will enjoy doing!
Thanks! thats awesome, I really like forging roses, they make great gifts and people always seem to love them. Thanks for watching, it's greatly appreciated.
No problem! That is awesome, I have been wanting to try a copper rose I just haven't had the time to yet. Thanks for stopping by and watching I appreciate it!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching, normally I allot 6 inches for the stem cut around 3/8 of an inch wide, then I allot an in to an inch and a half per petal. I like around d 8 petals so you would need stock that is 14-16 inches overall. My preferred stock thickness to work with is 1/8 of an inch thick.
Hi I stopped by from Terrys to visit you're channel. I hit all the buttons and bell I hope you do too Tyfs ❤ I'm Looking forward to seeing more videos!! Have a wonderful day 🥰
Thanks! I appreciate you watching, I use a wire brush on the outside, then a soak in acetone to remove the oil and crud, then rinse with water. Then a wax finish or spray paint once they dry, you can use an oven to dry them quickly before painting/waxing.
Thanks for watching I appreciate it! I believe the petals were cut every 2 inches so if you do 8 petals it would end up being 16 inches just for them, if you pre cut the stem I would add another 6 inches or so for that, so 22-24 inches overall should do it, anymore than 8 petals just add 2 inches for each one to the overall length.
Thanks this method has worked out better for me than all the other ones I have tried. and I like making these. I've made about 20 of them now. Just wondering what is a good price point for these? Internet references are all over the place. From a hundred and twenty bucks with a few leaves on it to 25 bucks. My first few I sold for 35. Sounded kinda fair. but I am getting better and faster at making them and don't want to under cut or devalue the design for other blacksmiths. So any hints will be much appreciated by everyone. Though I don't really expect a answer from this cause the video is sorta old but it would be nice. Also curious if it would work better and faster If you just forged the petals out and forged the stem separately and tacked them together at the end.
I am glad it helped out, I sell these for 35 dollars, a lot of the pricing depends on the area you live, I live in a more poverty striken area so most people can afford that but in an area where there is more money you can get more for them. I would give the seperate method a try and see which one you prefer. I appreciate you watching!
16-18 inches should be more than enough for the whole piece but you can go longer if you want more petals , I usually do around 2 inches per petal, it makes it easier to get a tight roll for the center of the rose.Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
I’m curious how you’d manage this if you had a smaller forge, mine isn’t quite as big as yours and I’m not sure how to fit the rose in there with how the stem and petals are, it’s too wide, I guess I could bend it but I’m not sure how that would mess with anything. Guess I’ll have to work on it a bit more, Great video though!
I do the petals at 2 inches each, you can make the stem however long you want. I have found that a 12 inch stem looks nice so with a stem that long with 8 petals you would need an overall length of 28 inches. I appreciate you watching.
Sorry for the late reply, I usually start with them around 2 inches, they will lengthen out some as you texture them but overall it seems to be a good length to start with. I appreciate you watching.
Mystic Mountain Forge; You have absolutely no discernible accent. I had you figured for an East Tennessee hillbilly.😀I’m gonna binge watch some of your videos tonight. I will be in touch. Thanks!
thanks for the info. im new to blacksmithing and thought maybe an angle grinder would cause an undesirable effect on the metal amd thats why u didnt use one :)
Très bonne vidéo et très beau résultat. Mais étant français et ne comprenant pas la langue parlée je suis à la ramasse. Si quelqu'un avait juste les dimensions du traçage, je suis preneur.
Uh huh. Yeah, okay. Let's say the aforementioned 'beginner' has been working with purely hand equipment. No Band saw. How would the beginner separate the metal?
That's funny, I didn't know that, I found it in some old junk that was my grandfather's when I first started out. It had been used as a hammer a long time before I used it, my dad remembered my grandfather used it to work on things, but now I will clean it up and make it back into what it was meant for, It will come in handy more that way. This was one of my earlier videos so you will have to forgive my stupidity lol.
@@Mysticmountainforge No no don't worry I actually made the same mistake 😂😂 I was like. Wow this peen is really sharp it must of been used for sheet metal lol! No stupidity here
I believe the petals were 2 inches wide and the stem was 6 inches for an overall length of 22 inches for the bar, give or take a little on the stem because you will be drawing it out when you forge it round, you may want to allot a little less. I appreciate you watching!
Saw this video once like a year ago and it’s the method I’ve been using since, much appreciated
Came here for a Mother's day idea! Great tutorial! Thanks!
I'm making one out of a metal sheet from a microwave cover
And it look pretty good by your instructions, thank you
That is epic, I am glad it helped out, I appreciate you watching.

Thanks for sharing this technique. I made my wife a copper rose for our anniversary; this looks like lots less trouble! I will try it tomorrow.
No problem! That is awesome, I have been wanting to try a copper rose I just haven't had the time to yet. Thanks for stopping by and watching I appreciate it!
@@Mysticmountainforge Problem with copper, of course, is that it work hardens, so you have to keep annealing it. Over and over. And over!
Like 19 awesome bro this was very kool well done 👍
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Really impressive 👍🏻
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!

@@Mysticmountainforge You Welcome
Nice new here ill have to give it a try
Thanks for stopping by!
Good fun, thanks for sharing....
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Great video. what was the total stock length you started with please?
Thanks! I appreciate you watching, normally I allot 6 inches for the stem cut around 3/8 of an inch wide, then I allot an in to an inch and a half per petal. I like around d 8 petals so you would need stock that is 14-16 inches overall. My preferred stock thickness to work with is 1/8 of an inch thick.
@@Mysticmountainforge thanks. Normally make these from 1" wide stock so wanted to try something larger but curious about proportions. 👍👍

Belo trabalho, vou tentar fazer.
Por quanto vende uma flor dessa?
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it! I charge 30 dollars for these.
@@Mysticmountainforge Thanks for the feedback, I hope I can make a beautiful piece like yours here
Love it
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Awesome video. How did you go about cleaning them?
Thanks! I appreciate you watching, I use a wire brush on the outside, then a soak in acetone to remove the oil and crud, then rinse with water. Then a wax finish or spray paint once they dry, you can use an oven to dry them quickly before painting/waxing.
What are the dimensions of the piece? I know it's 2x1/8 what about the length? And the spacing of the petals. Love the channel by the way.
Thanks for watching I appreciate it! I believe the petals were cut every 2 inches so if you do 8 petals it would end up being 16 inches just for them, if you pre cut the stem I would add another 6 inches or so for that, so 22-24 inches overall should do it, anymore than 8 petals just add 2 inches for each one to the overall length.
Thank you for the response. I'll be attempting this very soon.

Hello my friend 🙏👍
Hello! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
How long of a piece of stock would you recommend start with, and how wide are the starting petals when i make my cuts?
16-18 inches should be more than enough for the whole piece but you can go longer if you want more petals , I usually do around 2 inches per petal, it makes it easier to get a tight roll for the center of the rose.Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
I’m curious how you’d manage this if you had a smaller forge, mine isn’t quite as big as yours and I’m not sure how to fit the rose in there with how the stem and petals are, it’s too wide, I guess I could bend it but I’m not sure how that would mess with anything. Guess I’ll have to work on it a bit more, Great video though!
Try using a torch, you can get the steel hot enough, but the area you can heat is smaller.
Whats the approximate length of the steel to use
I do the petals at 2 inches each, you can make the stem however long you want. I have found that a 12 inch stem looks nice so with a stem that long with 8 petals you would need an overall length of 28 inches. I appreciate you watching.
@Mysticmountainforge thanks, planning on giving a try after I pick up some steel
I gotta ask how long your petals are
Sorry for the late reply, I usually start with them around 2 inches, they will lengthen out some as you texture them but overall it seems to be a good length to start with. I appreciate you watching.
Nice video! How big are each of those pedals?
Thanks! They ended up being about 2 inches square after forging. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Very nice! I be digging in my junk pile for some stock. What part of the country are you from? You sound like a neighbor. 😃
Thanks! I appreciate you watching! I am from SE Oklahoma
Mystic Mountain Forge; You have absolutely no discernible accent. I had you figured for an East Tennessee hillbilly.😀I’m gonna binge watch some of your videos tonight. I will be in touch. Thanks!
Thanks! I appreciate it!
could, u just use an angle grinder to cut out your starter shape?
That would work great as well, it would also be a lot faster than using the bandsaw.
thanks for the info. im new to blacksmithing and thought maybe an angle grinder would cause an undesirable effect on the metal amd thats why u didnt use one :)
New friend nice content ❤
Right on! I appreciate you watching!
What is the measurements of the pedals
Normally, I do 2 inches, but you can do less if you want more. I appreciate you watching
@@Mysticmountainforge I made one tonight!
What steel is this?
These were forged from 1/8" hot rolled mild steel 2 inches wide. Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
Très bonne vidéo et très beau résultat. Mais étant français et ne comprenant pas la langue parlée je suis à la ramasse. Si quelqu'un avait juste les dimensions du traçage, je suis preneur.
Do you sell these?
I used to a while ago, now I mainly focus on knives. I appreciate you watching!

@@Mysticmountainforge งฃ
Not bad, I had a same idea years ago, but end up making them more traditionally in the end. Damn I hate when somebody say it's "Russian version".
tried sharpening your chalk???
Lovely vedio new friend here stay connected now ok hun
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
I use this method cause it's the fastest. Also how dare you do a u-tube video with a kitten in the background and not show us the kitty.
Uh huh. Yeah, okay. Let's say the aforementioned 'beginner' has been working with purely hand equipment. No Band saw. How would the beginner separate the metal?
Cut it with a chisel, you can also use a hacksaw.
Uh lol fun fact. that "straight peen" youre using isnt a hammer its a hot cut chisel its alright tho lmao
That's funny, I didn't know that, I found it in some old junk that was my grandfather's when I first started out. It had been used as a hammer a long time before I used it, my dad remembered my grandfather used it to work on things, but now I will clean it up and make it back into what it was meant for, It will come in handy more that way. This was one of my earlier videos so you will have to forgive my stupidity lol.
@@Mysticmountainforge No no don't worry I actually made the same mistake 😂😂 I was like. Wow this peen is really sharp it must of been used for sheet metal lol! No stupidity here
and oddly enough this is also a cat video.

How long is the bar and the petals measurements and stem measurements
I believe the petals were 2 inches wide and the stem was 6 inches for an overall length of 22 inches for the bar, give or take a little on the stem because you will be drawing it out when you forge it round, you may want to allot a little less. I appreciate you watching!
