Making a chasing hammer was something I wanted for quite some time now and I really wanted to make it special. I hope you enjoy the video. All the best Jimmy

These materials, the metal steel versions and the titanium versions as well and their creative makers patterns can always be so amazing to enjoy making us to want to buy some and make something as we are not forgers able to make our own and truth is we will not be forgers. Thank you Jimmy for the exposure to possibilities this material can be bought and machine int becoming. What a lovely finished set f hammers love the handles unique to these two guys and the acid etch and polishing looks to have concluded with a great reward for you, thank you for sharing. Lance for Lance & Patrick.

Thank you very much for your comment Lance, I really appreciate it! I would love to be able to forge Damascus steel; but as you, I know this will not going to be. I learned many new things from this simple project; I'm glad to be able to share them with all of you! Regards from Greece Dimitris (AKA Jimmy) P.S. I have seen most of your videos, but what I really love was the watchmaker drill press series; you see, I have a similar one (not so old as yours) that needs restoration as well some of its parts are missing.

Always nice when I watch someone paying attention to ALL the details and exhibiting a very high level of craftsmanship while building anything, especially on tools for there own personal use. Given the general light striking force a hammer of this type would normally see my best guess is any internal inclusions that are still within the metal shouldn't cause any future cracking problems.
@JimmysCanal5 жыл бұрын
Thank you very much for the comment, I really appreciate it! I would like to believe the same, because as you said this type of hammer is not intended for heavy blows. Chasing hammers work differently than other hammers, instead of relying on slow powerful blows, chasing depends on a fast light blows in conjunction with a thin and springy handle which accelerates the hammer head torwards the chasing punch.

They turned out great!! Not usually a fan of damascus but like it in this context. Why do the handles need to be flexible?
@JimmysCanal5 жыл бұрын
Than you very much for your comment, I appreciate it!! Chasing hammers work differently than other hammers, instead of relying on slow powerful blows, chasing depends on fast light blows. With every blow the handle flexes forming a spring that stores energy, this energy accelerates the hammer head torwards the chasing punch. Here is a very nice article: www.alberic.net/Toolbox_Index/Chasing_Hammers/ChasingHammers.html if you have time take a look, it explains the subject in detail. Thanks again! Regards from Greece Jimmy

Ciao molto bello le volevo chiedere visto che a già riferito come fate a fare quella rifinitura al martello il disegno con il nere mi può dire più dettagliato cosa ci vuole per farlo soda aceto ma poi le sarei molto grata

Grazie per il tuo commento, lo apprezzo molto! Prima di tutto devo chiarire che non ho creato il modello nell'acciaio, questo è l'aspetto distintivo dell'acciaio di Damasco: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damascus_steel L'acciaio di Damasco può essere lavorato come qualsiasi altro acciaio, ma per rivelare il suo modello unico deve essere inciso con una soluzione di cloruro ferrico www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw= ferrico + cloruro soluzione + & _sacat = 0 Ora, come ho scritto nel video, il cloruro ferrico è stato diluito con aceto bianco (60% FeCl3 40% aceto), dopo il processo di incisione l'acciaio è stato neutralizzato in un bagno di bicarbonato di sodio e lavato con alcool. Infine, per rivelare il motivo, è stata utilizzata una carta vetrata fine. Purtroppo non sono un esperto quindi la mia conoscenza è un po 'limitata, per maggiori dettagli puoi guardare questo articolo: vegasforge.com/general/etch-stainless-damascus/ e anche su KZfaq ci sono toni di video sull'incisione dell'acciaio di Damasco. Ora, per gli spazi vuoti di Damasco economici, guarda ebay: www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=m570.l1313&_nkw=damascus+steel+blanks&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&_osacat=0&+kus Ti auguro il meglio Jimmy

As ever very interesting. just looking at that padauk saw dust made me itch, one of the reasons I stopped wood turning, i became allergic to exotic timbers. Now for an English lesson, not that you need one but, the hammer you made is a ball pein one. pein is pronounced pain, confusing for English speakers so second language speakers don't stand much chance. Just think of what you feel when you hit your finger with it and you will get the idea. Peen is what you can do with the ball end. ATB c

I've never heard that pronunciation before. Not even Tom Lipton, over at OxTools, seems to know that.
@chrisstephens66735 жыл бұрын
Kristofer Jonsson not everybody knows everything😉 It is so easy to call it a peen because of what you do with it but it rhymes with vein(vain). If you think about it you use the ball end to, say, peen over a rivet. English is a constantly changing language so if everybody thinks "pein" is pronounced "peen" it can be correct. It is only us oldy native speakers who care about these things, colonials(Americans ) have their own language so should not be taken as "best form" where English is concerned. 😉😅😂
