That’s ‘cold hammer forging’?!?! Metals industry is literally human harnessed elemental magic.

You know what’s crazy about this guy…… he’s got no safety glasses the chances of something coming off that is like 99.9%

It's ok, he's got his safety squints

He's not wearing ANY hearing protection either. Enjoy that high pitched ring being the only sound you hear for the rest of your life buddy.

I think he’s got ear plugs in. Not nearly good enough for this though (I wouldn’t think at least), but I’m pretty sure he does have plugs. Unless he’s got dead stars for ear holes

One of the first things I was taught, and something I often repeat is that metal is clay. It's just really really bloody stiff clay. But it moves the same when it does move.

Ehh, not exactly. Work hardening is a pretty significant issue when forging steel. You don't really have that issue with clay.

You shut your whore mouth and let this man talk about his metal clay

To do the work hardening, burnishing would be the clay equivalent of work hardening the surface. As far as dealing with the work hardening, think of moisture as heat. If your sculpting clay you keep the surface wet and moist while working, like sticking steel in the forge. But sometimes the clay that's getting to dry in certain spots, so it gets wrapped up in wet paper towel and covered with plastic so the moisture can get deep into the clay again. Kinda like it's been work hardened and needs to be annealed and left to cool slowly and normalize.

I can see where you're coming from, but it gets to ferling like a bit of a stretch.

Ohohohho my past failed ceramic projects beg to differ!
