I just made almost exactly the same tool. I like how you have your hardy on it definitely going to add that to mine. I knocked it off the anvil twice. Thanks for sharing 👍.

Awesome! Yeah the hardy post shank thingy is definitely key! Thanks for the feedback! ✌️😁👍

@glennmartin6492 Жыл бұрын

Great job. My only suggestion would be to have the tail that fits in the hardy hole extend up the back of the guillotine two or three inches; welded all the way for a stronger join. There's going to be a lot of stress put on it when in use.

Hey Glenn! Thanks for the suggestion! That’s a really good idea, hmmm…looks like this tool is ready for an upgrade ✌️😁👍

@@glennmartin6492 yeah, more like wait till it breaks, leave it till the last minute when you really need the tool to complete a project deadline, then fix it haha that’s more my style 😆

Thanks for sharing. I wonder if it would have been slightly better to allow the lower die to pass through the base and rest directly on the anvil surface. Not sure, but just a thought. Also, a friendly side note, and maybe for next time, is that the music really doesn't add anything to the video. I scrambled to cancel 'mute' each time I saw that you were talking. Thanks again!

@blaisegoldman Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the feedback Steve, I would definitely be keen to try some variations on the tool, as well as on the video style, appreciate the suggestions! Cheers!

@jeffcromer4574 Жыл бұрын

Love the idea, would like to have for my forge, what r the measurements for all the pieces

@blaisegoldman Жыл бұрын

Hey Jeff thanks for the feedback, so the whole thing is about 8 inches wide 9 inches tall, and the die blocks are 1“ x 2“. That said after using it in the workshop over the past year or so I think I would probably try and make it a little bit more compact, I’d probably go with three-quarter inch by one and a half inch stock for the die blocks

How thick was the steel you used.i like the open ended design a lot better than others I have seen

@blaisegoldman Жыл бұрын

Hey thanks for checking out the vid! Yeah the open side has some real advantages if you have an odd shaped piece you want to put in there. The back plate is 1/4”, the dies are just cold rolled 1 x 2

What are the di blocks made of ? Mild steel? Tool steel? Thanks agagin

@blaisegoldman 6 ай бұрын

These ones are just mild steel (1018 cold rolled) they do get deformed over time but you can just regrind them, would be nice to get some tool steel eventually
