Most efficient skillet making I’ve seen! 🔥

[johnnybeaurain]

Good video. What type of steel do you use for the skillet, just plain mild steel?

I think your subscriptions are about to take a jump.

A few Questions:
1. Why quenching the handle? Was this only for effect for the video?
2. Why heating the pan/sheet? Only a risk that the heat warps it. Better would be heating it and then flatten the bottom once more under the press
One tipp at the end. Please don´t put your thumb on the handle, it will hurt your wrist in the long term. Also consider using a heavier hammer

Cool video, quick thought/ suggestion. Check your torch. The tip nut may be loose or the bevels on the tip may not be sitting correctly in the torch. I heard a snapping or popping at the 5:35 mark. That's usually caused by the gasses mixing in the torch body. Hope this helps. I really enjoyed this video. :)

Beautiful, high quality work! I love the thought and effort you put into everything you make. I am looking to buy a fly press and was wondering where you got yours. Thanks for your help! Keep up the great work!

What kind of carbon steel did you use?

[jeremy]

What gauge is that sheet metal and how big does the circle need to be to make a 12” frying pan? I may try this as a homemade project.

[BrittCHelmsSr]

I just had to come over from Essential Craftsman and see that pie press at work shaping those pan bodies. Awesome work! Just had to subscribe too.

I love your lifestyle, you have a beautiful family, you are very blessed!

Pressing a blank is not forging. The handles were but that was it.

I guarantee that isn't any run of the mill ballpeen hammer...
