Fantastic, the finishing touches on all your projects always makes it look so good! The cleanup of all the little bits and pieces at the end are one of my favorite bits of your videos, and really show what a difference the small details can have on a finished project.

Machinist currently in college here, just wanted to say: Nicely done. Also, that pop at 3:33 is just *chefs kiss* A possible way to avoid the bowing issue is to anneal the steel beforehand, and keep it cool while machining it (lower feed rate and coolant if possible).

1:30 oh shit I felt my hand getting cut off. There's something ominous about vertical band saws. They scare me to death. Don't know if it's the sound, or whatever it is, but it's the most scary tool in a workshop for me. 🤣

You can blacken the etching by using AC current. Of course, you can't do that with a simple setup with batteries. But if you got a transformer-based AC/DC adapter of the right voltage, and are a bit handy with a soldering iron, it can be done. The transformer outputs AC voltage, which gets rectified by a bridge rectifier. You can tap off the unrectified AC current straight from the transformer, and the DC (which you need to etch into the material) from its standard output. Then you can just use a dual pole dual throw switch to connect either to your output probes. I used some cheap Hakko 936 knock-off as the basis for my etching station. Made a new front plate for it that houses a DPDT switch, and replaced the internal PCB with one that takes the output of the transformer, and exposes it as one set of outputs, while also passing it through a full bridge rectifier, whose outputs also get exposed. Then both of those outputs get fed to the "output" sides of the DPDT switch, whose "input" gets connected to the crocodile clamp and a wand that ends in a sponge. I've seen others do it using a cheap cellphone charger, but nowadays you have to doublecheck they actually have an AC output stage, since a lot of 'em (the so-called switching power supplies) use buck converters instead of transformers. The same goes for my soldering iron, btw; a lot of those are built around buck converters these days, as opposed to transformers.

It's comforting watching you work. Your thought processes and the way you work mirror my own (although I probably cut corners more unless super high precision is necessary).

You get away with not messing the files if you chamfer the outer edges and round them up.

I would have done it exactly the same, including being surprised that it warped under it's own internal stresses.

At first I thought this was going to be for doing file work on knife spines or something. But it still could be if you ground regular grooves into the HSS bits (could even make a set of them). Well done.

Last time I made pins out of a piece of steel that looked like that, it turned out to be a scrap of W2, where a hardened tool had been made and cut from one end. The 20 pins I needed to make got progressively harder to cut as I got closer to the end that had been heat-treated...

You should put some thought into manufacturing these... On the warping from stress relief, next time (if there is) start with annealed material and then heat treat yourself post machining. You'll want to leave some stock so that you can grind the important features to final size and tolerance however. You're going to have warping no matter which direction you tackle it from, working with hardened/hardening parts. The key is control.
