Making Mandalorian Beskar Steel/Ingot (Giveaway for Subscribers)

Niels Provos Guide 5 years ago

Description

To change it up a little for 2021, I made a Mandalorian Beskar ingot using pattern welding techniques. As you know from the Mandalorian show, Mandalorian Beskar Steel is the super strong material from which the Mandalorian Armor is made. While such material may not exist in the real world, the pictures we see in the show look similar to pattern-welded steel. If you are new here, the techniques I am using to make the ingot, e.g. forge welding to create patterns, are the same as I use to make Viking-age inspired swords, knives and spears. If you are interested check out my other videos.

The ingot of beskar is roughly 5in x 2.5in x 1.4in and is imprinted with the Galactic Empire crest/sigil by the hot stamp I am showing in the video. The back side features two grooves that I cut on a milling machine.

There is a giveaway of this ingot for subscribers of my channel. Share with your friends. Official Giveaway Rules for Subscribers: http://bit.ly/2Yb9XPE (TL;DR: you need to be subscribed + comment in a special way) - giveaway is over!

Beskar for Charity: For at least a $2000 dollar donation to Second Harvest, I will make a Mandalorian Beskar ingot on demand.
