My name is Alec Steele and I am a 22 year old blacksmith from England, now living in Montana in the USA! With a great team of hardworking folks, we upload videos showcasing the projects we get up to here at the workshop. Lots of sparks, lots of making, lots of fantastic-ness. Great to have you here following along!

I have been watching your videos for almost 5 years now. As I have seen you develop your craft, I have increasingly grown concerned that your popularity would grow too much, too fast and you would completely sell out, burn out, or simply just become someone you never wanted to be. There is a lot of pressure to always be moving forward to bigger and "better" things. It happens all the time with extremely talented people like yourself. You go from being a dedicated craftsman to an entertainer. It genuinely warms my heart to see you back in your old workshop and talking about slimming things down, reorganizing, and in a way, getting back to the basics. Just remember why you have become so successful: not because you are an entertainer, but because you are an incredibly talented and passionate blacksmith. Grow, hone your craft, and teach others as you do so. But please, never ever lose that wonder for your trade.

Hey! Ive had ryobi tools for ages, biggest tip, spend the extra dough on the big batteries. The 3 or 4ah have extra contacts and can deliver more power all at once. Way more amps, all the many go juice, it magically fixes problems like that saw binding up super easily. (But also, properly support your pieces might be a good idea I mean cmon guy)
@kuhrd 3 жыл бұрын
Most of the cordless power tool kits include the small batteries that droop really quickly in voltage when you put them under a sustained load. If you have the bigger batteries they tend to work much better because the load is distributed across more cells. The big batteries (4 and 6 Ah) also store more energy so they last longer between charges since they handle the voltage droop better before the BMS kicks out.

At leasr 4, i generally dont use les than 5AH in the saw, grinder, vacuum etc. anything high current draw. 6 and up is better, 1.5 and 2 on drill, lights, gresse gun, low draw things.

4 minutes and 20 seconds - it's not the tool, it's operator error - the boards were bending (butterfly wings) and binding up the blade. My 20V Dewalt does the same thing.

I am following your videos since 2018 when you made the viking sword and others before that. I am just at awe how fast time flies. I am amazed that you got the old workshop back. I even scrolled back to your videos and watched the time when you tear the shop down and now you are setting it back up. But Will is still in tears in Montana though.
@tobyroberts6571 3 жыл бұрын
I'm guessing you didn't have the time to this time around, but seems a shame you couldn't save some money by getting second hand tools - given Will's experience with the power hammer would love to see some videos about buying used tools: where to look, what to look for to get a good deal, (maybe some tips on how to restore things to their former glory), and just your experiences with buying tools secondhand. Love the new old new old new workshop! :)

I presume if he's buying machine tools they will be secondhand, It's generally both quicker and cheaper to ring round a bunch of smaller machine tool dealers, buy whatever they have that best suits your needs and get it picked up, than to buy new from a manufacturers agent, then wait for delivery and commissioning. There are at least 8 power hammers for sale in the UK on machineseeker right now, 11 if you count the three HUGE 10,000kg, 25,000kg and 60,000kg (remember that refers to the mass of the falling parts, not overall mass) ones which are blatantly inappropriate for Alex's needs.

Hell YES! I'm so glad you recognize what was lost with the original workshop, and are trying to recreate that close, lived-in vibe you had before. All of the bright lights are nice for machining and grinding and whatnot, but a smithy looks way sexier when the forge and glowing steel are part of your lighting setup. I'm impressed that you always seem to get your heats right under those bright lights.

They are half the price of trade quality tools and ~30% more than ozito. Having bought ozito and had half of them die in 6 months and no warranty honored. Ryobi would have been a better budget tool.

The internals aren't as well built and they use cheaper plastics. They're not a pro tool company as Milwaukee, Dewalt or Hilti. A driver/drill set from Hilti will run you almost as much as the whole ryobi set. They're perfectly fine for most people. But if you make a living off of them, you spend the extra money.

@@KitamusPrime Hilti tools are designed for the rental market, so they will be way overkill for homeowners, and frankly even for pros. They don’t even compare to the likes of Ryobi or DeWalt.
