    My 2x42 Grizzly -T32459 - blue magic smoke from the motor at 3 months old. One call to tech support and 10 minutes later a new motor is on the way. Got it 4 days later. That's a 228 dollar replacement part for a 299 dollar piece of equipment. Yeah, I have skills and can replace it (and did, took 20 minutes) and Yeah, I'll buy it again.

    The real reason a black smith keeps striking with the hammer is to make the boss think he is still working. 😀 (The boss -of course, is the person cooking dinner.)

    Replacing the drive wheel with a smaller 4" wheel will mitigate the motor power issue. Every machine built is a compromise of design elements & component selections normally to meet a price point. There is a way to break every knife ever made & a way to break every electric motor ever made.

    Aside from making damascus patterns but i want to give info for those who think its good when you make layers for your ingot. If you are layering your carbon steel when you already have great quality material is only going to make more shit sword in the end, by introducing impurities between layers and using technique for japanese heterogen ore is not good idea. Layers for katanas are made for ridding that shit ore they had and trying to get most homogenic micro sturcture for your metal.

    This was a great tutorial, I just ordered this unit directly b4 I watched, and am brand new to the "Game" lol I have the Harbor Freight 1 x 30 and Im pretty sure everything you mentioned is exactly how Im starting off!! Anyway I think your Humbleness to how you started and how each piece you got "made and paid" for your next upgrade was a great lesson for a lot of us just starting plus (Imo your humbleness and probably a lot of your skill and craftsmanship) come from modest roots. Thank you for making that one of the most enjoyable as well as informative videos Ive watched

    I'm just getting started on bladesmithing; the first knife I'm making for myself is an old leaf spring. But, I want to make a rr knife for my employee who manages the office on "forge-day" for her to wear as a utility knife when she's riding / working on / working w/ her horses. Is it worth trying to put a handle on one, since there's a chance she's going to be using this in the cold?

    Grizzly solved the motor problems on the late models and other minor issues they do not mention. Also from today until Agust the 19th this grinders are on special sale at $270.oo plus $30 shipping. So for $300,00 the unit will be delivered to you in the U.S. Too bad I ordered one just 4 days ago. Did cost $335 with shipping and taxes.. Hope this info helps someone.

    I seem to be missing something. while i understand cutting, drilling, and forming, when the cast material goes up into the steel body of the burner and it far does it go? Does it touch the bent flat metal with all the holes inside the steel body or is there a space and how much space is needed?

    Haha, 'Metric measurements are the tool of the devil'! So funny! I was born in the mid 1970s in the UK, and by the time I was at school, Metric was the way......However, metal and woodworking wasn't taught at school, I learned woodworking from my Dad, who was a child of the 1940s, so I learned feet and inches from him....And mountain navigation......I then learned navigation from the Army in Metric, so I work in a really confused mix of metric AND Imperial. Somewhere may well be 2 miles 300 Metres away......A car may be 9ft 16cm long. Works for me even if it doens't work for anyone else. Stunningly beautiful sword! Truly a piece of work to be proud of!
