I live in Ukraine. Surely you know that the war has come to us. I'm lucky. I am relatively safe and I have both electricity and the Internet. So I can make videos. Our entire knight movement is now actively opposing rascism. Someone from the first days of the war is already in the military, someone is engaged in volunteering to cover the needs of the military or civilians in trouble.

I understand every hammer strike and can feel my arm screaming with every stroke. You do wonderful work. Truly you are an artist.

The sheer amount of work that went into making this one part of a medieval suit of armour is staggering. When you consider that blacksmiths in medieval times didn’t have access to power tools or gas torches or electric furnaces or even high speed steel cutting tools, it makes you realise why such armour was so incredibly expensive and reserved only for wealthy noblemen.

@karlwilhelmmeinert7592 Жыл бұрын

They had water powered hammers though.

@QualityPen Жыл бұрын

Yup. It was a high-skill, time-consuming job. Skill x Time = Expensive. Many nobles even then went the extra step and had their armor engraved or even gilded. In modern terms, a man-at-arms’ suit of quality armor would have cost in the multiple tens of thousands, but some lordly suits would have cost tens of millions of dollars. A king’s suit of armor might have cost hundreds of millions and involved dozens of smiths and artisans from different towns and even kingdoms. I saw a Swedish king’s shield yesterday while Googling some stuff- the entire thing was a 3-dimensional relief of Amazons fighting.

@scasny Жыл бұрын

Well there are work arounds like 2-3 feet metal seers to cut sheets or using chisels to cut hot or cold, coal forge is better for general shape work but the gas is superior in detail work. Actual labor was cheap the raw material and fuel was main contributor to the price. Dont get me wrong weapon smith and armorer make decent living, but keep in mind they mostly have big turnover then actual profit. Another point plate armor was the high end protection, chain mail or brigandine were more common and dont forget gambeson witch is valid armor on its own.

@@Rubensgardens.Skogsmuseum I know, I was only joking. But in my experience, using a cheep pair of calipers works well for marking offset lines on regular mild steel such as S355, if the points gets dull just sharpen them. It's fine as long as you don't use your good quality Mitutoyo calipers that's used to make real accurate measurements with. However, the steel for this helmet is clearly not mild steel as he is heat treating it. I don't know how long the tips would hold up on regular cheep calipers. Sharpening is always an option though.

@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Don’t be a bot and ask people to come to Christ with a single verse. It it were that easy to convince them, you probably wouldn’t have to. The verses of the Bible are mainly for the people who already believe, others would likely dismiss them. If you are a bot, people will associate christians with bots and will be less willing to listen to them. Say someone makes a real evangelistic comment. If someone sees it, they might associate it with bots and ignore it. So, if you are going to evangelize people, do it with carefully thought out statements, not with *just* a verse and request to become a Christian.

Not the first time watching you make this helmet, but every time i see a new facet, so being subbed to all the channels is well rewarded. Awesome work!

Your dedication and experience as a sheet metal worker are truly commendable! 🔨 It's incredible to see someone with your background appreciating the craftsmanship and skill involved in forging and creating armor. Your understanding of each hammer strike and the physical demands of the process adds a unique perspective. Keep up the amazing work and continue showcasing your talent as an artist in your craft. 🛡🔥

OMG I love the editing. Beat on the metal is pops out the plate, flick the small piece and it flys out the hinge. Educational and entertaining. You had me ROFL dude!

As someone who grew up in a house heated with wood, that spent a not insignificant amount of my formative years swinging an axe, the most amazing part of this whole thing to me, is spiking those scoring lines with the grinder lol
