We Tried BRANDING a Steak


in today’s video we’ve got a fun build
idea we’re gonna see if we can build our
very own customized TKO our branding
iron
[Music]
guys we just got a welder a MIG welder I
love welding and this is gonna be a lot
of fun and as a first project we are
going to make a branding iron so I’ve
got a steel bar I’ve got some steel
square tubing I’ve got a little bit of
all cred some wood nuts goal is to be
able to have a little metal logo that we
can heat up in the fire and then brand
onto wood or maybe a steak or whatever
else we feel really needs our logo burn
right into it not people probably not
cows either I don’t think we have any
cows to brand it’s a pretty basic idea
we’re going to cut and shape the TKO our
logo out of some mild steel use a welder
to attach them together and add a handle
giving us a branding iron that we can
use on all sorts of stuff now I’ve gone
ahead and printed off the TKO our logo
and what I’m gonna be doing is attaching
that to our metal bar here and I’m
actually gonna take all four letters and
cut them up and then we’re welding stuff
we’ll put them back together that’s just
gonna make it a lot easier to get some
of the angles and stuff down into little
nooks and crannies so we’re gonna
separate all the letters glue them down
to this piece of steel and we’re gonna
start cutting them out
woodglue actually does a fantastic job
[Music]
[Applause]
well there’s a few ways you could cut
this out I’m gonna start with a hacksaw
we’ll see if I decide to keep using the
hacksaw or if I just move on to using an
electric grinder who was it that said
something about a metal grinder heck I
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
kind of got the rough form cut out now
we got to start doing a little bit finer
detail of course we want to sell you
everything with a grinder we’ll get some
files maybe a rotary grinder as well
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
I’ve got the four-letter pieces cut out
for our TKO our symbol and now I need to
start welding them together the T and K
should be connected the oh and R should
be connected and so we want to do that
before we put all the pieces together
with the backer rod and then attach a
handle so we’re just gonna be welding
we’re actually gonna do it on the front
that is gonna leave a little bit of
build up we’re gonna have to grind that
down afterward but it should leave a
nice smooth connection between the
pieces when done a great connection
nice we’re great there we go we’ve got a
weld right across the scene hopefully
it’s good clean weld all the way through
and when I sand that down it’ll just be
nice and smooth with no bubbles or
anything inside
so for those of you who may not know
this right here that’s a magnet this is
great for holding all of your pieces in
place and it’s got a nice 90 degree
angle on it gives you some measures and
stuff this right here is what allows it
to complete a surgeon when I’m pushing
this button it’s sending electricity
through both of these and it welds
because it’s trying to complete the
circuit so this has to be in contact
with what you’re welding ahead of time
and as it feeds this wire out the wire
comes in contact with it it makes an arc
and that’s what welds alright let’s do a
little bit cleanup on these – are they
cool enough to touch
they’re not super running hot but that
[Music]
[Applause]
well guys uh brands work in Reverse so
this one looks really good on camera but
if I brand anything with it it would
read TK or backwards so I’m gonna try
and cut off these weld marks well this
piece to the other side and then clean
it up again all right we’ve got some
charcoal where we’re gonna do is when
you put our brand down in the charcoal
to get a nice and hot add a little bit
of extra air to just really get that
thing going hopefully we can get this
really nice and hot and then start
burning some stuff
all right now it’s not blowing red part
of this cuz it’s daytime out here I’m
guessing we have plenty of heat to get a
good brand BAM
[Music]
it brands wood really well but there’s
another thing we want to try now we’re
not gonna brand a live cow because we
don’t have one of those and we would
don’t own it and have no reason to brand
it but we do have a stake from a cow
we’re gonna see what happens if we try
[Music]
haha right as I branded that there’s a
cow I don’t know like a few properties
yeah that’s good and branded right there
pace Brandon
[Music]
it actually does there’s like an extra a
little bit of charred flavor to it
[Music]
guys you’ve probably noticed that since
we introduced Kali in our Captain
America shield video every new video has
had secret codes graphic glitches and
other secret elements hidden into it
keep track of what you see and the
timestamp of when you see it we’ve got
some big prizes to give away and finding the codes might make you our next winner
