I'm on mobile and when the beeswax was used on the chisel, my phone vibrated. It added to the experience
ExplosionSauce
Yes but how did he make the anvil in the first place?!?
Thepowerof14
Hella long
rct3god
i just watched a 6min gif
coconutbangerzballz
WHERE THE FUCK DID THE AXE AT THE END COME FROM. Fucking twist ending man
JMountains
This is not OC, very convincing but a forgery none the less
SlicedPotat
This gif is long! *reads user name* Oh yeah.... Good.
RefurisFox
why the honeycombs though?
Phaseronfry1
It's 3am... Why am i still on imgur watching some dude forge a timber framing chisel instead of sleeping??!!

-1 point for not wearing gloves or safety goggles

This is most annoying gif I have ever seen.

stupidly jealous of that workshop

He's good with his wood.
Kommadore
I was really hoping someone made this Gif, thanks!
KingShitOfTurdMountain
Wanna know what that place smells like? Coal and man-sweat. It's pretty awful.
FeoJ
After all that craftsmanship, and they use a laser to inscribe the name? C'mon man! Use a branding iron or something.
djcurrier
Gloves man, c,mon. Protect the tools god gave you.
valkuma
I was 30 minutes in when the gif froze. Can anyone tell me if they hook up in the end or if the three girls find their dad?
ThatCrazyDogBosco
Neat. Worth the long watch.
kylethenomad
Honey comb??
EvilShenanigans
Wondering that too. Must be the wax for a sealant to prevent rust.
nuggdavis
Helps with that and also antique's the metal.
kylethenomad
Oooooo. That's pretty damn interesting.
nuggdavis
Wifi Warning, btw.
TheGhostOfChristmasPast
FO' chisel my nisel.

chekhonte
I'm at a hotel with what I'm pretty sure is 1980's dial up coming through the wifi. It was nerve-racking.

You da MVP

I'm testing to see if my phone provider actually cuts the bandwidth, so it's good. So far 13/10 GB used without issue :)
Flyith2
In the middle, I was wondering why he was making a baseball bat, then I realized that it was the chisel handle
Hanyolo420
I had to charge my phone halfway through this gif
CaptainDeadpool
This is the longest gif I've ever seen on Imgur. Worth the watch.
nuggdavis
I'm trying to break my record and post a 13 minute gif soon.
BearcatVonCattercat
How long was that? I smoked two American Spirits for crying out loud!
nuggdavis
6:12 You all ain't seen nothin' yet
FrogPaste
How? Imgur prevents me from uploading anything longer than a minute or so.
nuggdavis
You have to make the gif before hand, and there's a size limit. As far as I know (it used to be 50 mb) it's around 150mb.
TommyRottn
Still - my last gif was 1:40 and was damn near the 200mb limit. What are you using to convert from mp4?
obese2beast2
How
nuggdavis
I use ffmpeg to convert mp4's into gifs. It's pretty complicated command line stuff though. I might make a gif about it.
obese2beast2
Yes please
potentiallyunsafe
I'm going to make everything by hand using wood and rub it with hand harvested natural bees wax and hammer my name into the head. Then I'll
potentiallyunsafe
Hand lathe the handle and use organic oil to carefully season the it. Then I'll shoot fucking lasers at it to sign it.
nuggdavis
Metal
Kommadore
I thought that was a little strange, he didn't have a traditional wood branding iron?
machitoast
Why did he reuse the sawdust?
AlpacaBag
He was using the sawdust to burnish the handle. Burnishing is polishing, essentially.
pelecica
I studied as a carpenter but I've never heard about this unfortunately.
AlpacaBag
Plenty of discussion about using old shavings for burnishing floating around, give it a search.
Danglebutter
Guuuuuh John Neeman channel is handcrafted porn.
nuggdavis
Check out his new company too, Autine Tools.
Danglebutter
I've taken a gander before. Will have to go back for a deeper dive!
hesgotatowel
Watch those sleeves near a lathe. Live leak that shit.
HeyMicky
So glad I wasn't the only one thinking that
Greekgeek1980
Exactly what I thought! Lathes are very dangerous.. Even small wood lathes.
SepiaSkies
For real. Had me wondering whether wood lathes have some sort of safety clutch, since so much of the work is done so close to your hands.
1metalnation
They do not, you're just expected not to be fuckin retarded around the 800lbs machine of spinning death
FirmCouch
What exactly is a lathe?
the11223
A machine for 'turning' wood, he used it to make the handle. Honestly one of the easiest woodworking tools to get into
hesgotatowel
That thing that spins the wood piece really fast so he could carve the handle.
FirmCouch
And what would happen when it succs him in
hesgotatowel
It depends. It would most likely mangle his hand or forearm. It could in theory take digits and limbs off.
FirmCouch
Neat.
