I thoroughly enjoy your videos and watch them regularly. I’m a licensed professional electrical engineer with a mechanical tendency towards machining ,and have my own home shop. Thank you for taking time to share these videos. Very informative.
That is one heck of of a vice stop. I think that would stop a Renault Dauphine at top speed. Great job on the installation. That 90degree head is a great tool
Great video, Mr Pete. I've used a right angle attachment in a CNC before. We even had it set up so it could tool change. Having abilities like that can give you an edge over your competition. Please don't take this as criticism because it's not meant to be. I just wanted to inform your viewers that if you write on an andodized surface with a Sharpie, you probably won't be able to get it off. It soaks in. I'm sure it doesn't matter for what you're doing but I've had to scrap and re-make parts before because of it.
Yet again, another fine looking shirt you're wearing. Makes me think you make all these videos after church on Sunday. It's way beyond the typical youtube shop standards. Great video, as usual.
Not a comment on this particular video but just saying thanks for doin what you do. I’ve learned a lot watching your stuff. Great videos sir. Since I’ve been watching I’ve acquired a atlas 10f and a series 1 j-head Bridgeport mill. No dirt naps yet, keep the videos coming.
I really enjoy your video’s you do nice clean work. Your teaching skills really show. I pick up quite a bit watching and reading your books that you put out. That has to be the short’s bed they made eh. Thank you again for your video and your time.
Mr Pete is the best! May Jesus continue to bless him with gifts that ONLY come from Heaven. For he is a cut (from) above! He does not bore you with theory and deep detail. He simply simplifies it so any layman AND experienced machinists can understand it. IE: He SHOWS it more than "talks" it; which sadly, is one of the problems on all too many DIY videos. GAR-OWN-TEED!
Mr. Pete, As always great video, nice stop! And guess what, my first car was also a Dauphine ( 1959 ). I just thought it was funny! What I liked the most was it came with a crank, you did not have to use it, but sometimes I would start it with the crank for fun. GOOD TIMES!!!
Nicely done Mr. Pete. I think if I had designed that vice stop I would have put the grub screw that secures the slide on the top so not to wrestle trying to put an Allen wrench into the bottom of a bracket I could not see. Even if they had to make the slide a bit wider on the top to accommodate the screw and avoid the rod hole.
Nice vice, a good set of parallel's and that stop on that awesome casting . Having a stop of some sort (or a combination square set to the fixed jaw) if your making more than one . the stop takes less effort to be repeatable I like that.
I know its cold in northern Illinois because i live in southern Illinois and its been 2 below zero last week up their where it flat as a pancake and the wind blows day & night it must have been cold as as a well driller buns thanks for the video mr pete
Lyle, I have seen similar right angle heads for bridgeports but they have a shaft and an over arm support making it possible to run horizontal cutters. Does your right angle head have that capability? Thanks, Joe
Sweet. Now I have to find a decent vise for my B&S #0 with a Bridgeport M head. Do you have any info on the M. Keep them coming. Now the question, B&S or Bridgeport vise hmmmmmmm. I know you would pick the BP. THANK YOU.
Flathead Ron's Garage - you can check the net for a manual on your M head BP or email me at stevesmachining@aol.com and I will email you a pdf file. I have a 1942 M head.
Mr. Pete - For someone who's not building space shuttle parts, would a Bridgeport vice be sufficient for home-shop use? I don't have a vice for my Bridgeport at all.
After seeing the Edge Technology stuff featured on so many TH-cam channels and watching the Edge videos, I purchased a table mounted vise stop from them directly. I am happy with the product and thought it was too inexpensive for what it is until I found and became very disappointed that it was made in China... sad, I'd pay more for one edge actually made here in our country.
Another way of doing that would have been to hang the vise off the edge of the table and swing the head around. As for the bolt size you could make a nice bushing with a shoulder if you didnt have the room or tap for those large bolts.
Dunno why they used those monster socket head cap screws back there, the aluminum bracket will surely deflect anyway before those babies shear off, a couple of 5/16" would give all that's necessary given the simple function of the stop- anyway, free is free so...
I suppose I'd be wasting my breath, pointing out that good machinists' practice when tapping screw threads, you always 45° chamfer the hole to about 1/64th larger than the major diameter of the thread, so you don''t kick up a burr that might interfere with the mating part... It also lets the tap "ease in," reducing the chance of breaking the tap... In precision parts, it helps maintain tap alignment. Frank

Thanks Mr. Pete for your videos , haven't seen them all but working on it 👍
👍
Thank you sir, my Saturday morning can start now, I have had my Mr. Pete fix!!! :)
Thanks for watching

My first car was a Dauphine--worst car ever made

Thank you for supporting and following me.good luck with the new machines
That right angle drive is quite a useful item to have. I can see why you have wanted one. Thanks, Mr. Pete! :-)
Yes, I think I will like it

Thank you very much
Yes, Mr. Pete is a superior teacher, a rare find indeed. We are blessed to to have this medium where we can learn from such an instructor.
I built a copy of the pro stop for my Kurt and really happy with the unit
Admitted patent infringer? :-)
Many thanks for posting this video. kindest regards from Bonnie Scotland. Joe.
Thanks for watching
Mr. Pete,
As always great video, nice stop!
And guess what, my first car was also a Dauphine ( 1959 ). I just thought it was funny!
What I liked the most was it came with a crank, you did not have to use it, but sometimes I would
start it with the crank for fun. GOOD TIMES!!!
I often had to crank mine, or push start it. Both of which were very easy to do
Thank you, and stay warm, Mr. Pete.
Thanks
Always look forward to seeing your videos I enjoy them very much thank you
Thank you
Many thanks for sharing mrpete. regards from the UK
Thanks
Great job!
Thank you
Great job. Of course they lined up. Never thought they would not. Haha. Look forward to your next video. Cheers
Thanks
Enjoyed watching your video. Don't ever stop.
Thank you, I won't

Yes, in fact you could be modified as you suggest

Another great video....thanks Mr. Pete
Thank you
Pretty fancy shirt for in the shop. The video points out one of the annoying things about using a tap follower and that is all the space required.
Just wearing out old clothes

Sorry, I don't know much about the M
Mr. Pete - For someone who's not building space shuttle parts, would a Bridgeport vice be sufficient for home-shop use? I don't have a vice for my Bridgeport at all.
Yes, in fact that's what I use
I would look for a used Kurt vise or an off-brand angle-lock vise. A new Kurt 6" vise is about $600.
Thanks for sharing sir....
Thanks for watching
That Pro Stop reminds me of a Chevy pick up idler arm.
Mr. Pete
Do none of your drill presses let you rotate the table into a vertical orientation?
They probably do but I think he was anxious to use the right angle attachment.
I wonder if you have the sliding stop part on backwards? How would you tighten the set screw on the bottom?
Yes, maybe I do

I am happy with the product and thought it was too inexpensive for what it is until I found and became very disappointed that it was made in China... sad, I'd pay more for one edge actually made here in our country.
They could not sell it that cheap if it was made here
"Tell 'em Groucho sent you" I wonder how many of your viewers remember that line. "You bet your life" they won't.
Not many
I do. I listen to Jack Benny, George Burns, Dragnet, Hoppy, etc all the time. Old radio programs are great when working around the property.
cant wait for the next one!
Thanks for watching

Yes, you are right
Lyle i think Pro stop overkilled the mounting bolts oh well VEARY nice .
They had a good reason, look at the other comments
"All right, let's see if the holes line up......you know they will" LOL!
LOL
Thanks Mr Pete!
Thanks for watching
You are so old school somehow that gaudy red stop seems really out of place..
I bet you wish you had a Horizontal Boring Mill in your shop!
That machine would be bigger than my entire shop
THANK YOU...for sharing.
Thanks
Dunno why they used those monster socket head cap screws back there, the aluminum bracket will surely deflect anyway before those babies shear off, a couple of 5/16" would give all that's necessary given the simple function of the stop- anyway, free is free so...
BeachsideHank They use those big shcs because they are sized to fit the holes on a Kurt vise
Chris C
Makes sense then, the Kurt can be jigged up for more flexible operations than the old design of the Bridgie.
You are very correct
I suppose I'd be wasting my breath, pointing out that good machinists' practice when tapping screw threads, you always 45° chamfer the hole to about 1/64th larger than the major diameter of the thread, so you don''t kick up a burr that might interfere with the mating part... It also lets the tap "ease in," reducing the chance of breaking the tap... In precision parts, it helps maintain tap alignment.
Frank
I often counterbore my holes to the major diameter of the thread. This greatly helps you tap it straight
great video!! thank you!
Thank you
without having a right angle attachment I think I would hang the vise off the edge of the table from the permanent job face
groucho?
Why do all your videos have the word "tubalcain" in the title? What does that mean?
It's from Genesis.
It's his internet name or handle, or whatever. It's a biblical name. I think he was Noah's blacksmith or something like that.
1/2 13 is way over kill 1/4 20 would have been more than adequate
The stop was made to bolt to the existing 1/2-13 holes in a Kurt vise.
You are quite right
