I remember my Grandad was ‘into’ blacksmithing & I’d man (@ 7-10yrs Young: I’m 60 now!) the hand-crank billow to heat the iron ~ just being with him & doing that 50-years ago was awesome/great memories!! Watching your work & skill happily brought that all back...thank YOU! The way you talk about your passion with blacksmithing is what kept me watching ‘til the last second. BTW, my Grandad Owned & Ran His Sawmill (he did Southern Ga Yellow-heart Pine from OLD local warehouses), by hand, ‘til he was 78yrs. I guess those 2 professions run hand-in-hand, imho! Again, thx for bringing those great memories back - don’t know why I rambled, but your videos are excellent!!! Keep Heatin’🇺🇸
I’ve just started working with spikes making different things and a lot have twists. I currently have been using a pipe wrench to do my twists which sometimes leaves marks and or slips. I love the tool you use. I’m stealing that idea. Thanks.
I gata say, its always a pleasure to watch you work. No flair, no melodrama, just efficient work. And thank you for all the help you have given to the many charity's. You are a hell of a good dude and one badass blacksmith. Keep up the good work.
Great Video John! Just something simple yet most bottle opener tutorials you see aren't with a railroad spike. It was neat to see your take on it. Thanks.!
I have a feeling ill be watching you for a long time. I just started blacksmithing after I got my associate's in welding. I absolutely love everything about blacksmithing and you make it look so easy. Thanks for making videos (:

I like this idea! Way to make a useful item out of a railroad spike.
I now have a new project to try very cool 👍
I would totally buy a t-shirt with the quote “Nothing to it!” and some sort of OHF logo
Least you drink decent beer! Nice vid too!
I would like to see a video on how you made the railroad spike twister. Very cool Tool indeed!
Love your work! You're the reason I got into blacksmithing. Keep on heating and beating brother.
Once again thank you for your guidance

Thanks

I really enjoy watching your videos, keep em' coming!
I love making these! Made two today pretty quick for my neighbors!
Thanks ! I’ve been trying to get the end correct for a few days... you just paved the way. Awesome video
Nice bottle opener. Not hitting hammers together is an old wives tale. Next they'll say don't hit a chisel.
Great Video John! Just something simple yet most bottle opener tutorials you see aren't with a railroad spike. It was neat to see your take on it. Thanks.!
Good little bottle opener.
Nuttin to it! Love that saying!
