Channel is called Alec Steele. Youngish guy who seems to be pretty talented at blacksmithing. In this video he creates a type of damascus called Mokume Gane, which is a fusion of copper and nickle. Pretty neat stuff to watch.

I was going to get some mirror Mokume Gane wedding rings made when we got married about 23 years ago, couldn't afford it then, don't want to spend the money now. They can fuse all kinds of metal together, do a google search for Mokume Gane jewelry, some very pretty stuff.

Cool video. I've seen people make mokume gane from stacks of quarters.
I've been watching him for quite awhile, he's come a long way.
I saw a recent set of videos where he made a really nice (and complicated) pattern welded Fairbairn-Sykes dagger.

If you like that you might also try the ZH Fabrications channel. Mostly furniture and custom fittings, but nicely done and interesting to watch.

The best fabricators I've ever seen are the two British guys that are taking an old Austin Mini and making a modern Japanese FWD engine and trans work in it. The problem is, they seem to have dropped off YouTube! I can't find their vids, channel or the links I used to have to them, AAAaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggghhhhh!

Check out Freerk Wieringa's channel. Also blacksmithing, only no talking at all. Just him showing his craft.
