Spur Making: Heat Treating Spur Rowels - Bit and Spur Making Videos by Bruce Cheaney - Spur Maker. High carbon steel from an old plow disk makes real good spur rowels that have a unique ring to them and the rowels will last forever. I used a cutting torch to cut out round circles from the old plow disk then heated them up to a cherry red and put them in lime until they cooled off. Next step was to belt sand them and put a coat of layout dye on them then transfer my rowel pattern onto the steel and the grind the spokes into the steel.
The main reason I softened the steel was so I could drill a hole in the center of the rowels for the rowel pins.
Once the holes were drilled and I did some hand filing on the spur rowel spokes I sanded the rowels and cleaned the up so the would be ready for heat treating.
As you can see I am heating the spur rowels with a small Victor cutting torch with a small heating tip and when the rowels reach a cherry red color I will quench them in Olive Oil.
After the rowels cool down I will temper the spur rowels to a dark straw color and they will be ready to clean up and polish.

https://youtu.be/_5ExYWXFhqEAbout the Site π
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
