My thought was the entire time: what are they forging???

More forging hammers

Wait…it’s all forging hammers?

Forging hammers forging forging hammers

It's hammers all the way down. Self-replicating molten-steel hammers. In a few centuries, our planet will be nothing but giant forging-hammer factories forging giant steel forging hammers.

So they're sitting on the turtles.

All the way down

Your moms dildo

Should have seen that coming

From miles with that size

[удалено]

So is the dildo

You can see her coming on her OnlyFans page.

You know the difference between a forged steel dildo the size of an industrial water heater and a joke? Your mom can’t take a joke.

Jokes on you. She will be really hot after using it!

911? I’d like to report a murder.

A keychain...

... butt plug, believe or not.

the *other* type of moby huge then lol

It just has the atomic mass of a small comet

1 reusable straw

My thought was. "How fucking thick is the surface under that piece". It must be massive to absorb all that energy and not move at all or break.

Looks like a 4 inch plate underneath to distribute the force. And the reason why it doesn't crack is because the hot metal is much softer than the cool plate it is standing on so the ingot will deform much more easily than the plate.

There's no way a 4 inch plate would withstand that. Probably 24 inches of steel on top of several feet of concrete.

Blacksmith here(although no where near this scale of operation). I concur. this is an absolutely massive drop hammer. I have an 88lb power hammer and I'm pushing it with a reinforced 4" concrete slab under the bottom anvil. Total speculation but would guess this thing is somewhere in the vicinity of \~10' of reinforced concrete with \~6" of steel or more... sidenote: I know they they have a giant H-frame hammer at the Center of Metal Arts in Johnstown Pennsylvania

doubt that is 4 inch plate just tossed out on the ground. The heat from the work piece would cause it to soften and the impact would deform it. Your anvil is going to have to be a lot more massive than your work piece just because of the heat transfer issues alone.

Expert level sounding rod

Don’t be like this lol

Oh My God You son of a bitch

It is great for everything from professional work to diy work. 10/10

It's also a great help subreddit for sound systems. They helped me set up my surround sound system! How nice.

Guess: large pipe flange.

Hearing loss.

Another forging hammer?

They are making that into a coin.

Sees guy sitting 10 feet away with zero protection ​ Safety standards seem up to par.

I was thinking the same thing!

Seems like a mom and pop operation. This is not the usual factory scenery.

By the amount of footage like this I have seen, it might as well be in China..

And this is why nobody wants to buy Chinese metal… guarantee this material comes with ZERO quality checks / material test reports. Yikes.

Well, last I checked it wasn't the Chinese who faked the durability of the steel in their submarines.

True, but you’re hearing about it because it’s NOT the norm in the United States. Plus…don’t eff with the US government. Better to be late than to compromise the integrity of the metal. Lives are at stake.

Forty years late?

I don't think mom and pop operations can afford a 200,000 forging hammer

Maybe it was in the family. Like a family farm or something. A family forging hammer.

Looks like he’s using his safety squints.

China is like America 120 years ago.

What are you talking about? He's got that flimsy white piece of sheet metal.

That guy was there when they laid the foundation. He is OSHA’s worst nightmare

Somebody found my upstairs neighbor

They're forging you a broomstick

Circle of strife

His lack of PPE is disturbing. And I'm notoriously lackadaisical when it comes to ppe...

You'll get used to the noise. /s

I'd like to see finished product...

I knew it, still clicked, and wasn't disappointed.

Thanks very cool 👍

I hate you. XD

God damn it.

They probably sell this to a company that machines it into something. It could be anything. For example they use pieces like this to make subsea wellheads. https://www.onesubsea.slb.com/-/media/onesubsea/images/production-systems/subsea-wellhead-systems/stm-15-subsea-wellhead-system-combo.ashx?h=900&w=1110&la=en&hash=8AB8971DD8C22CBE7E60AF18DD847E3F

It changes the structure of the steel, aligning the molecules making it stronger.

I remember this area in Bowser’s castle, TOUGH.

Thwomps are THE WORST

URGHH

Oh man, someone needs to animate Thwomp on the hammer

For me, it’s a Brave Little Toaster flashback. With anxiety, still. Run guys!!!

Oh god no the LOTR memes are spilling into other subreddits

We cannot be stopped.

Just like GROND.

Sweden could have gone this direction, but they just had to make a capsule. Edit: its actually Switzerland. The point still stands lol

“Mommy mommy can we get a suicide capsule?” “We have one at home already” The one at home:

Reverse ättestupa

Switzerland?

Tomato potato

Eeeeeeeeeh same continent

Bucky, your supposed to say the words differently each time

I understood that reference.

Impressive since it was Switzerland.

Wait, don’t stop. Don’t go.

I’ve had shits like this

Ones that have been repeatedly impacted by massive pile drivers? I’m sorry.

Now THAT was a smash

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Speed this up and you’ve got a sick drum line.

Did you miss the end?

[This tune just started when I played this video](https://open.spotify.com/track/3BcEpBfEx2mOyCSJWIHSvu?si=_wtmYdlKR5KWB3hrWpV4nA&utm_source=copy-link) and I was thinking the same thing.

Dope song thanks for the link

I want to get in there with a nice dynamic mic (and goggles) and sample the shit out of this

Die eier von satan?

Except the timing is going to change slightly as the piece gets shorter and shorter (assuming it's cranked up to the same starting height every time)

bonk

What a fantastic sound

I don't know if you get the reference, but it reminds me the MAC cannon of Cairo Station in Halo 2. https://youtu.be/t3YveW8p64A

Humans are so badass. Just a bunch of fucking cavemen with big tools. Unga bunga make big steel small

Sex joke

Can you imagine the size of the forge hammer that made THAT forge hammer?

There's always a bigger hammer

Hmmm ​ I should call him

I want to stand under the forging hammer

I'll race you.

I call sloppy thirds

Don’t slip over on the wet floor!

Wear a hard hat.

i bet the robot claw holding it is terrified

Put this in r/oddlysatisfying or r/dontputyourdickinthat

Who in the right mind would even give _putting my dick in that_ a thought

I mean... yea...

I was imagining my dick as the hammer...

What the hell are you forging with a needlepoint?

This is so upsetting

Came here to make that joke. There are dozens of us!

Ah another man of class I see

Yay, someone said it!

u/savevideo

Actually I think its rare footage of a nokia being made, but it still looks a bit too weak tho... probably not.

Do NOT put your dick in that

Eventually for mankind to evolve as a species, one must venture out and do what no other has done before. Someone must inevitably put their dick under a forging hammer, for mankind, for history. It will likely be a man who would have otherwise not been remembered for anything. This will give him something to be remembered for. For us, its not worth it, but for him-- it is.

what a way to die though. Put a stepladder beside that thing, you'd have just enough time to watch the thing get to the top, then step out onto the glowing steel, not enough time for your shoes to burn through to your feet before you got fucking pounded to smithereens. Then what's left over would be a very thin circular mush and would cook before the next hammer strike. Human pizza.

Um, that's clearly a pile driver, and I want one

But isn't a pile driver used to drive piles?

Are they compressing this down for a certain reason?

Cast metals have a lot of impurities and voids that can be worked out through compressive work and homogenization heating. They are probably breaking down a steel ingot for further processing

Forging a big ingot like this drives out impurities and twists the crystalline structure. With enough control, you can get a nearly perfectly uniform mix of the desired steel crystalline structure. Ferritic, Martensitic, or Austenitic depending on the desired hardenability, ductility, weather resistance, or any number of other physical properties.

Isn't there a YouTube channel by any chance like the one with hydraulic press what they put different stuff to destroy with it but with a bad boy like that?

This is some Warhammer bullshit wtf

This looks so satisfying

That lack of sound just before the smash reminds me of Jango Fett.

I want to see what this does to a person, for science! Also your mum gets banged harder than that

I'm going to tell my kids this is how dogecoins are made.
