$20 EDC knife review--Good things come in small packages!
Переглядів 2,7 тис.4 роки тому
This perfect little EDC knife cost $20 two years ago (your mileage may vary, hat-tip to nutfancy). Don't let the price or the minimalist design fool you. This blade has features and capabilities that bigger and more expensive knives only dream of. (And yes, this is sort of an ICYMI video, but I figured the time was right with everything seemingly going crazy in the world right now...not a bad t...

Solar Powered Canoe (solar boat build)
Переглядів 16 тис.4 роки тому
My Solar powered canoe really works! Ever thought about build a solar powered boat? How about a car? Bike? Solar anything? Well I've spent decades thinking about, but always kind of in the back of my mind. Last summer I'd had enough of daydreaming and actual built a solar powered canoe. I used a deep cycle battery, solar panels and mppt solar charge controller for efficient solar power and elec...

No panic virus update (do prepare)
Переглядів 1,5 тис.4 роки тому
Quick update on the virus situation and a couple of recommendations for avoiding fear and getting prepared now (so you can relax later). Testing is going to increase this week in the US and probably other parts of the world. When you do more testing you find more cases of infection. That does NOT mean it's rapidly spreading, it just means cases are being DISCOVERED. That's a good thing. Still a...

Переглядів 1,6 тис.4 роки тому
What would you include in a Biological Bug Out Bag? Are you ready for chemical and biological hazards? FargoFX is mostly a blacksmithing and DIY channel, and I honestly hadn't spent much time lately thinking about disaster preparedness until the recent Covid19 outbreak (aka coronavirus, aka SARScov2). Here's a video that should help get some discussion going on what items are most essential in ...

Thankyou man!!!
Every single man seeing this be like "HELL YEAH"
Can i use cinderblocks?
I wonder if you can use a blower instead of a hair dryer.
bro what is this great leap forward kinda shit LMAOOO
i literally have everything to do this BUT scrap metal
"it is easier to get forgiveness than permission" got me
Trying to make this out of cinder blocks does NOT work with wood/charcoal or "hot" lump charcoal. Bricks might work, like he uses...even with a huge fan pointed at it...doesn't get hot enough...
Thanks so much! I was thinking about getting into smithing as a hobby because of how much time summer break gave me, but i was DISGUSTED by the cost of anvils, forges and stuff. But then youtube recommended me THIS video! I cant wait to try for myself! Again, THANK YOU!
Простейшее не знание материаловеденья.... зачем делают отпуск стали?? чтобы повысить вязкость!! а какая вязкость у ЖЕЛЕЗА? ВЫСОКАЯ! Отпуск просто забирает и так не лучшую твердость у металла с углеродом в 0.2%
Great job, will definitely do this
Heyo! im trying to get into blacksmithing, and this video explained everything really well, Thank You! (my mom was still kinda mad about me making a 2000 degree fire pit in her backyard but it was worth it)
Hahaha, blacksmithing is awesome, I should get into it too
guess who’s making a sword?
This was inspriring thanks
This video is very great, thank you very much for revealing the secret to us, I think I saw another one where the cable was different, this one seems to be firmer, not that it lacks firmness in the moraines. Thank you, I wouldn't have the courage to do that to mine and I wouldn't even buy one just for that.
the man in the (Mas tequila por favor) shirt is a imbecile. 4 wars started under genocide joe.
i usually dont comment on videos, but hey man, thank you! this was perfect!
Great video. Love the high level overview from beginning to end. Just how I like to learn!
Could I use þis to make armor?
Good video. Should i call 911 first and give them a head start? Lol
I am a blacksmith, could you please tell me which oil you used to harden the mild iron?
Rebar is not hardenable
Terbaik dan simpel
where are you😥
now its 50$
10:46 even a microwave oven 😅
Nice!
This video is motivating to say the least. Thanks for sharing it :)
Why do you need to buy some rebar when nature produces metals already? 😂 buying material from harbor freight man our ancestors would laugh their arses off great video though thank you
Great video.But I totally disagree.That's not a pistol for fun.That's a last-ditch effort.Get off me pistol. You keep it hidden and when you have no other choice, it comes out. And goes to work.
You should have put that infront of the steel
Please don’t waste your time quenching rebar because the metal doesn’t harden.
you don't need the hair dryer, I used my breath and did fine.
Th
Obligatory “rebar is mild steel; the quench does nothing”
All of this is…fine, but claw hammer made me cringe; the striking surface is cylindrical, so it’s going to leave a million tiny crescent shaped marks that you’ll have to file and grind FOREVER.
So your not gonna preheat your oil with some scrap metal before quench?
11:41 boh- wtf are you doing running the sandpaper into the blade? 💀💀💀
Lol this guy think people can afford houses with back yards. Thats ridiculous
Un bambino li poserebbe meglio quei mattoni.
Idk if it's too late to comment this, but you embody the true essence of blacksmithing. Your resourcefulness and straightforward, clear explanations are supreme!
I believe motor oil can introduce carbon and strengthen your metal
thank you for the motivation brother !
Cool video. But I have a question. I don't know which is better, the video or the comments?
So, first thing's first; I need a home...
"Easier to get forgiveness than permission" whilst holding a blow dryer 💀.... don't need to say anything more we understand 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Guess I’m gonna make 5 spears out of rebar
Thanks for wasting my time.
The bolt in rear that tension the bet under pulley loosen that slightly the belt can be easily adjusted and replaced
You can us a grill too
