I'm Matt I'm Kerry we are the stagmer brother's of Baltimore Knife and Sword we're gonna be building
some of your favorite weapons some weapons you've never seen before this is man-at-arms
reforged you guys have been requesting us to do just about anything from warframe for
a long time now and I play the game myself and has tons of great weapons but we chose to make
hate wicked two-handed sight one of the really cool things about this game is how you craft
items for instance the weapon we're gonna be making hate takes about 12 hours just to craft
and that's after you've spent tons of time gathering the elements to make it although
this is a futuristic outerspace game ILI's going to show you some traditional forging methods and
then we're going to depart from that completely and make the futuristic hate sight come to life
before locating the punch to drift the large hole for the handle billy
is going to take a small tool and mark where he needs to be
Billy is going to be using a large half round tool as a top tool on this he's gonna drive
the curvature down into the material forcing the shape later will grind and polish this
now in the game the handle appears to be made out of metal now this weapon is a
side which means it could be very unwieldy if it's too heavy we've decided to shave a
little weight off by using wood we've chosen a piece of white oak because it is very sturdy
and resilient and we figured what we can do is we can sculpt perform that we need to into it
and add some accents onto it what I'm gonna do right now is take it to the bandsaw and
just really cut out this rough shape then we're going to go back in and refine it a
little bit later to get the true curvature and design and shape that we want out of this piece
now but a lot of the form is finished he's able to draw out to the final form for the
head he's just going to go to the hammer and pull this material out into a long spike
during hot forming you'll often see issues water selectively on different
portions so that we can hold them directly in our hands sometimes that's a little bit
easier than if we're using tongs now the dilly has got a section that he can hold
he's going to begin by punching the center and using a large drift to create that form
there's a fair amount of additional wood and a lot of form that has to be created
Rick's going to go to one of the large Sanders and begin to create this form
man he'll help cilia as they increase the size of this hole they'll be driving the drift down from
both sides forcing it larger and larger that'll allow us to get the handle fitted up inside
when drifting the whole on something large like this it'll distort your piece slightly Lily is now
going to take the time to true everything up and draw out the end longer and cut off all his excess
now that Ilya is very close on the final form for this he's going to go back to
the anvil use a hand hammer and do that light finesse work that creates the final
Rick did a fantastic job blinking out the handle for me I'm gonna take over from here
I have a lot of different carving to do on this handle I'm gonna do a whole lot of it on a large
wheel outside and then move to the inside and do some more detailing with the narrow
so here I have hate aside from warframe I'm going to go in clean up all the edges on this
thing smooth it out throw a little bit of profiling make the tip here I'm gonna come
in here remove a lot of this material before you see these gold lines and also clean up
a lot of these edges so we're getting it ready for edging in some more sculpt
so bill has removed a ton of material from our scythe blade about 50% of the
steel that was here is now gone and I got a rule a whole lot more because
I'm now gonna start on the edging I got a ton of work to do so let's get to it
all right so at this point I'm completely done the front portion of this blade I'm about ready to go
ahead and start on the back edge but I noticed something we're looking at the in-game art and
that's at this edge this point here means to get kicked a little bit leaves a little more droop
to it so I'm going to go ahead and hand this back off to Illya he's going to heat up just
this portion right here and forge it to shape and then we'll continue on with the grinding
you guys saw me hogging off a lot of material earlier on this handle I've now run it through
about a 320 grit it's time to move on to the next phase I'll be using an arrow wheel on
the inside sander to just grind some detail that later will become our red highlights
now that Ilya has our blade all forged out Matt did some grinding on it I'm going to
go ahead and use the hand plasma torch to cut out this semicircular or hook shape
now that John's removed the bulk of the material with the hand plasma torch I'm
gonna use a couple different ways to clean up that inside cut first I'll
move to the slack belt sander and clean it up and then I'll use some hand tools
to just define the shape a little better move back to the slack now we're ready to move on
so the front blade on our hate site is now pretty much grounded shape all I have to do now is get
on a small radius wheel to kind of bevel this cut out a little bit it's gonna give it a much
more aggressive look but right now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna move one to doing the
whole back side so I got a grind a little bit of a flat here you can see I've used a sharpie
to kind of mark my lines grind really aggressive bevels and after I get all that done I'm gonna
have to go to a narrow wheel and really add in some of those details like you see in the game
lilia takes the blade over to the drill press to drill a hole this will later be tapped and
it will locate where this detail goes in doing these large builds sometimes you
have to make some concessions in this case we had to make the handle out of wood so
now I have to paint it look like it's steel I'm gonna lay on a base coat of black once
that dries I'll do a base coat of silver in the right areas tape that off and then add my red
since we don't have a large enough quench tank and this has blades in
both directions Billy is going to be heat treating one side and then the
other he'll be quenching this into oil and will later have to temper it
all right at this point we now have the base of our scythe build complete it's just down to
some of the final tedious detail work that I'm going to do a lot with the Dremel you can see I
got all the base coat done on the handle looks really good nice and aggressive actually going
to use some really good red wire that we're gonna inlay in some of these grooves I got
to do a little bit of work on the head itself I'm gonna just create a more organic look then
we're gonna take our little screw thread it in carve a little bit on that paint the inside red
be good to go Hey from warframe turned out to be one of my favorite builds I've ever done it's by
far the most wicked and deadly looking that we've ever made on man it was there was a whole lot more
sculpting that was traditional grinding I think it turned out awesome let's see how it performs
