Making a discus!
Рет қаралды 246,443
10 ай бұрынI decided to make a custom discus for my son, who is competing in track and field, where discus throwing is one event. A fun project but a bit more work than I first anticipated as you have to meet some specific parameters, like size and weight. I'm very happy with the result and it feels great to throw!

Starting with an enormous ring, part of me thought to myself, "Ooooh, just imagine some chainmail at that size!" Far more trouble than it's worth, but an amusing dream to think of it stretched across or between some buildings.

So cool, love the project. Now, when I think about it - there's plenty of hammer forging videos, but no videos of forging trowing hammer. Either olimpic style or classic highland games style would be awesome.

Thanks!! :) Not sure they can be forged from solid stock? Or maybe they are....7.26kg is less than a dm3 of steel...hmmm

*WOW that is so AWESOME. Your son throws really well... I guess in a few years time we will be seeing him in a future Olympics. He will remember this moment forever, that his dad made him a discus just for him. So what sport is your daughter interested in.... something you could make for her... oh I know.... hammer throwing.*

Thank you! We will see, she is also into track and field, and football.... She likes the javelin 😳😳
@andreacrashe9894 10 ай бұрын
@@torbjornahman *Goodness you and your wife are producing some future sportspeople... Well making a Javelin, might test you, due to it's length.... but I would love to see you try to make one. But one that she would know was hers & it would stand out from all the others. But maybe also make her a hollow football (to keep it light) on a wooden stand to be put up on her shelf in her bedroom too. These are the things that the kids will remember that their dad made for them... to be passed on down to the future generations... as they will stand the test of time forever.*

@@torbjornahman Wow, so that comment elsewhere about you making a javelin next... maybe you will! Do they know how cool their dad is?? :D (Or rather, do they see you as being even half as cool as all of us do?) Because... wow.
@torbjornahman 10 ай бұрын
A javelin is tricky I think, since they need to be hollow, more or less full length....
