I've been struggling doing this with RR spike heads and was looking for an easier way. I can't wait to give this a shot.

I have watched a lot of Ram head videos and I really like the way you made the horns. It looks like a Big Horn sheep we have in Alberta, going too use this way for sure , thanks for sharing. Going too make the horn tip go just past the eye so it a legal ram and a keeper,lol.

You made it look easy , i think it would make a really nice door knocker for a farm or country house.

Wooowww! Awesome job! 👍👍👏👏 I kinda laugh after you put the eyes, nose and mouth because of the facial expression of the ram he's kinda shock!😅.. all in all awesome!

A bit different to others I've seen, I like the horns done this way.

In 40 years ive never found a reason or understood why tap the anvil between blows

@nicholecrouch311 5 жыл бұрын

Very awesome visual lesson my boyfriend is an aries and will definitely want to try this is that just a cold chisel you split with

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 5 жыл бұрын

Thank you Nichole! The splitting was done with a hot chisel and the grooves in the horns were done with a small radiused hand fuller. Let us know if you have any other questions!

@andregrenier8697 4 жыл бұрын

how long did it take you to make it? and how long are the horn

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 4 жыл бұрын

I think it takes me about 30 minutes to do the rams head. I split the horns about 2-1/2".

@TylerDivelbiss 6 жыл бұрын

When you fold the horns back, are you doing a weld?

@TylerDivelbiss 6 жыл бұрын

I'm referring to just before you add the eyes

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 6 жыл бұрын

No, it is not welded. If you get the fold right you don't have to weld it.

@myownspiritlevel 4 жыл бұрын

Looks more like a bull than ram. I'm going to do one with horizontal slits for the nostrils and move the eyes more toward the side of the head. We'll see how it goes.

how are you holding the iron while you hammer/split it??? . . .

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 7 жыл бұрын

I'm holding the iron in my hip. You can see a *very* brief example of this in our Rapid V-Bit Tongs Instructional Video here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fsCnZ5OA3rHGlHU.htmlm51s

You ever thought about quieting that anvil down? Don't like wearing earplugs when watching videos.

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 2 жыл бұрын

Personally I like the sound a good anvil makes. I apologize that it bothers you.

@randygriffin4821 2 жыл бұрын

Cool. But it hurts my ears.

@davidlange7916 4 жыл бұрын

nice video but lord put a damn chain around that anvil. it would drive me nuts!!! I had to shut the sound off

@KjZiturKensCustomIron 4 жыл бұрын

I don't recommend wrapping a chain around your anvil. There are much too many useful places for shaping and bending on the waist and base of the anvil to cover it up with a chain. As for the ringing, that's why we have hearing protection and a mute button!
