Sadly, we are taught as men to be self entitled and wealth is king. From the politician down, self entitlement is ruining the world and things like this are but one of the victims. Until we wake up to the fact that peoples happiness, safety and ability to provide for themselves is THE most important thing, we will continue to allow technology to do the work of a million men whilst the profits go to only a few.

@gopher wiretap I couldn't have said it better than you. It's a long story but I became very close to my wife's Bulgarian grandfather before he passed away. We'd spend hours in his shop working on things and we probably had 20words or so in common. He didn't speak any English and I spoke very little Bulgarian but most of the time we understood each other. If I didn't understand he'd try in German lol. A few times we'd have to go and get someone to translate, but it usually ended up in laughter. It might sound weird but it was a great time and he was truly an amazing man. He was a teacher but what paid the bills was the furniture he built at home and during communism if he couldn't get a hold of a machine or tool he would make it. It still amazes her family how we could spend hours tinkering and making things.
@gopher wiretap I wish that I could have recorded it but it was just as cell phone cameras were getting good and it didn't cross my mind at the time and he's since passed away. I do have some great pictures though.
King Delevingne It’s a problem for the craftsmen and it’s an injustice as craftsmen are usually nice people and end up not as well off as they should be. If they work for wages then they don’t have to be business people but the only problem is that some industries like in automotive industry are run by salespeople who have no concept of what a good trade person is worth and pay their workers peanuts and they get monkeys so now smart people don’t want to be tradesmen and when you have a problem with your new car you have to go back a few times before it gets fixed if you’re lucky. It’s absolutely ridiculous. I’ve also seen this first hand in the dental industry where I worked for 8 years in a service department. Low wages made it difficult to get good people and we ended up with people unqualified repairing sterilising machines without calibrating them properly which means people could have picked up some nasty diseases. It was only when I resigned that I was asked to stay on a bit longer for four times the wage to train the electrician that replaced me. Think about it the next time you’re having you’re having a filling, I know I do.
@King Delevingne Of course it's a problem. The responsibility of making sure the work is paid for begins with whoever funds it. You don't underpay someone for such an unbelievably important piece, in hopes that he will take the responsibility of putting in extra work for free...

@@Z4rgabad So what you are saying is my comment "Guys love of Engineering" is wrong because he is working class and you can't like engineering if you are working class. That makes so much sense
Compare this with the multi mill compagnies and government contracts over here for these parts. Talking about government telling the working taxpayer (deplorable) to bend over. Not only Guy should idolise these people.
@Four Tune dai-ichi means something along the lines of 1 or first. "Dai" = number, "ichi" = one. There's a lot of companies that use dai-ichi as a noun as well. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dai-ichi
@Four Tune That is not Fukushima. He said he checked them so many times that he didn't make a profit. He was probably referring to the amount of money he made considering how many hours he worked.
Michael Palin was a great ambassador, he seemed to be able to strike up a rapport with anyone in any country. David Attenborough is also a gentleman who reflects well on the UK.

That proverb still holds true, you're just thinking too small. A journeyman programmer recognizes the ingenuity of a master programmer. A strong chess player sees the beauty in the grandmaster's game. An experienced DotA player recognizes the skill in a 8000 MMR player, etc, etc.
@@StyrofoamCancer It's still totally appropriate in engineering just not with everyone in engineering. I have met some young guys that I just know are going to be brilliant engineers and some that will be engineers.
what a load of tosh the guy has never made any money and is using a hand held micrometer, and using a manual lathe that came out of the ark, what is scary is the fact that parts made I such a poor quality controlled environment is being put into nuclear power stations
Neale Carbis I think it’s more impressive using the equipment he’s using to make what he is. Just because he isn’t using fancy cnc machines that do everything for you doesn’t mean anything. How do you think the first nuclear power plant parts were made? Don’t think they had all the fancy machines like today 🤔
Good workmanship demands respect. I too did an apprenticeship and have worked with tools all my life. There is something satisfying about fabricating an item which is both functional and good to look at.
not trying to be disrespectful to him or his knowledge, but can a computer not achieve this same level of accuracy? This seems like another job that will be automated out of existence
@@ABversion87 Someone still needs to design said piece as a 3D model or some sort of Cad file for an automated machine to work. Can't just press play. There will be another form of someone working behind a door for countless hours making sure its done correctly. Just not in the way you may think.
@@Syncopianot replying for you but for anyone coming across this in the future. Conversational machines are way more capable to make single one off parts than any manual lathe is. Way quicker and more accurate with actually less scrap because the machine does exactly what its told. The only way you could make a bad part or scrap one is if you incorrectly input the wrong dimensions into the machine, or read your drawing or measuring tool incorrectly, which is the same exact problem you would have on a manual machine.
.......it's Nissan today but Datsun was good . Toyota and Honda are today's consistantly reliable vehicles . Generally made in Canada is better than made in America , German cars made in Germany better than if made in America . The GM cars made in Australia ( Holden) were better than the American built . I've been watching Scotty Kilmer .
@@DaNuker He's talking about how American made cars are less reliable? Do you need a lesson in reading comprehension or do you not understand that subjects in conversations shift as the conversation progresses?
The lot of you don't understand that he's talking about the quality of OLD CRAFTSMANSHIP so quit your autistic screeches. OP is right; it used to be done better because the workers were better.
*I honestly feel that of all the the worlds 'television presenters' - not a **_one_** would be more fit to respect, honor and highlight this truly awesome Japanese master than Guy Martin - **_Proper! . . . ._* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💓
One of Guy's best. I'm 70 a diehard race fan and lifelong admirer of skilled hands. Racing and fabrication have always gone together -- Guy does a service here by showing why. I'm no Japanese master but still work in a trade. There is money to be made here in the US, but the people willing to work with their hands is dwindling. As long as parts wear out, we'll need skilled hands. When we lose appreciation for masters and the words "hand made" become a fashion statement we're slowly losing something important -- this isn't nostalgia ladies and gents.
This is so remarkable. To get that kind of a compliment from a Japanese Master is worth more than anything Guy could ever achieve. Sure, it will not matter that much, but this compliment is the highest praise this old man could give, and Guy should be very, very proud of that.
Im in tears of joy watching this...Thank you Guy Martin and thank you to Japan for the mechincal engineering skills of masters! Thank you Japan! Thank you.
God bless you for taking the time to show these old masters before they’re gone. My dad was a WW2 veteran and a tool maker. What I’d give for 5 minutes with him.
As a toolmaker myself, i worked for an aerospace company during and after my apprenticeship. It took 4 years of hard work and i can appreciate exactly why Guy is in awe of this man as it is how i looked up to the guys who trained me. The level of precision you need is second to none and even though i no longer practise the trade i would love one day to invest in a lathe and mill so i can get creative with metal again.
Out of the many videos of Guy I've binge watched over the past two days, this is the most precious to me. I have an admiration, love, and respect for the Japanese people, and to see Guy have the same, makes me love him even more. Two legends in one video. Thank you so much for this.
@@smokepepsi nah - you're just a clueless tit. He has job satisfaction and therefore purpose, travel to Japan and you'll see. Can't you see the respect and admiration guy has for this bloke?
A I am an Australian engineer, now retired, and in the 1980s I worked for Hitachi. It was a time when they made the highest quality IBM compatible mainframe computers in the world. I was successfully competing against IBM in the Australian market and I spent every fifth week back in Japan learning how the company operated and what made their computer products so good. They listened to my opinions with respect. I took the Bullet Train to Kanagawa and then was driven high into the foothills of Mt Fuji where the mainframe factory was located. The road wound high through dense forests and then opened up to reveal this huge campus with two main factory buildings surrounded by apartment blocks, sporting facilities, schools and a hospital for their workers and families. In the foyer of the main business center stood a 1942 Long Lance Torpedo...their wartime pride and joy. The factory was like a vast operating theatre and the uniforms were different colour shirts and caps denoting your rank and function. The engineering was amazing and I have been to IBM White Plains factory to compare. IBM mainframes needed water cooling but Hitachi's didn't. Workers are treated with respect and dedication is rewarded with gifts and holidays. Most engineering workers are recuited before they graduate from university and their fees are paid. I spent time in the Head Office in Tokyo and it was the same there. It was serious business and their accounting systems and budgeting was perfectly managed. I learned more while at Hitachi than with any other employer in my career.
Far beyond the satisfaction of doing a good job this man's innermost spirit drives him towards perfection. To find meaning in one's craft is blessing indeed!
Guy admires people who make a positive, practical difference with their skills and talent. Celebrities can take a running jump. Part of the reason so many people like him.
I’ve been a tool and die maker for forty years,your exactly right Guy.The young guys today do not want to learn a trade that involves getting their hands dirty.My hands have been cut up and stained with oil for pretty much my entire life.I use to be self conscious of it when ever out with a pretty girl at a fine dining establishment ,until I met my wife who said that’s what attracted her to me...lol I’ve also have been a motorcycle fanatic my entire life since my first one at ten yrs.old,I guess that’s why I’ve watched your videos here in USA we pretty much. have the same passions.I’m retired now and my dirty hands have made it possible for me to live in my beautiful 10 acres in the middle of the Shenandoah mountains,tinkering with my lathe and milling machine able to make anything I like ( mostly stuff for my dirt bikes and triumph road bike).i don’t think you’ve made a video I didn’t like,thanks...ps, if you see Mr.McGuinness please ask him to please retire,along with yourself.I would hate for anything to happen to either one of you...jus sayin’
I have a 6 year old grandson who has been around tradesmen his whole life. He looooooves tools and being around the blokes doing stuff. Had an occasion recently where he was up on the roof with me as well as his dad and uncle. Some bitch walking past screeched at us that she was calling the workplace health and safety inspector on us and that it was disgusting that we were putting the kid's life in danger. Soooooo angry we were. Poor kid was devastated that we had to get him down and not let him up there with us. This is what is killing the trades, harpies like that who have the power to call the coercive arm of the state in to regulate what can and can't be done with our kids so the kids end up in front of a computer screen and told to shut up and not bother the adults. Very sad.
Pinkle Dorg Not a bad living at all,especially in the future.You need someone to make the machines ,that make the machines that make the machines.There is absolutely nothing a machinist didn't touch in one form or another, first.Your right though,you could even break a finger nail !!
"uncooked ham1 day ago Haha, same! My husband says it was my filthy mouth and tits that attracted me to him! Haha!" May he rest in peace...thanks to your cooking. One natural necessity 90% of women are incapable of creating these days.
Sadly the apprenticeships and the work just isn't there anymore. Shortage of machinists, but also nowhere to get started, and wages that are comparable to a shelf stacker. Back in the day a machinist earned a decent wedge, those days are long gone at the bottom end.
I’m interested to get a toolmakers opinion on these tolerances? A toolmaker I got chatting to said he regularly worked to tolerances finer than this chap (not sure how legitimate that statement is). Also he said he had way too much schwarf? whilst working? No idea how that is spelt?) the end product looks decent enough though
@@dumbleduke4225 The tolerances are pretty tight but could be tighter. If you look at when they show the drawing there is h9 (outside) and H8 (inside) next to the dimensions . These are standard hole/shaft fits and not particularly close tolerance ones (0.13 not very close at all tbh, if you google you could find a chart). I'm sure he's had to make parts to much tighter tolerances in the past. Hats off to him for carrying on into his 80's. A master at his work.
He's wearing gloves to not affect his measuring equipment with the heat from his hands. I'm sure if he was gou g to lose a finger he would have done so by now.
He reminds me of my father,true master in furniture building,these amazing designers are dwindling away and you have to respect the master for all his hard work,his love and passion for what he does day in day out is made from love and commitment,Oregato.
I am a time served fitter / turner from the late 80's I know exactly how Guy feels watching this man. Just about all machining today is done on CNC machines. Hand turning and milling is becoming a thing of the past.
I'm 47 and when I did my apprenticeship back in the 80s we had tool makers all over in garages, factory's and industrial estates absolutely amazing skills and knowledge. I worked with guy for six months and during his lunch breaks was manufacturing a scaled fully working traction engine..! and to my absolute honour I turned to bronze caps so a bit of me is in their too!
I have worked extensively with Japanese engineering people and have been to Japan a few times and I get this reverential aura ... They are so good at their respective jobs but so humble with it... I can totally relate to this snippet of “real engineering expertise”... Beautiful video..
Got to love Guy's TV shows you can tell he puts his heart and soul in to evey program he makes and he shows it how it is no lies no short cuts just a 110% genuine bloke and 110% genuine TV shows proper job
Guy you never stop impressing me, mate. And I've said it before, but you really do epitomise a big part of our towns old, respectful and decent folk. One of my uncles is a master chippy and to watch him work is mesmerising. He'd be like you in that shop and just as respectful. Well done, mate.
ive been in engineering for the past 3 years now and i gotta say i still cant get the feel for a micrometer perfectly, these guys are seriously skilled im proud to be working in this industry
That older person looked like he had so much fun. It's probably been a while since he's worked with someone younger which is sad. Letting his knowledge go to waste once he passes :(
The word master seems not enough enough to convey just how much these individuals have changed our life’s for the better. There passing is something that just cannot be replaced
It’s so nice to see you understand what I also understand! It’s not just work to him, it’s art! Something to be proud of! Something that will last our lifetime and probably generation to come
This Japanese guy is truly at one with his tools and work, he said my tools are an extension of my hands WOW, no computers here, respect old wise man 👍
My dad was a lathe engineer in Coventry. He turned crankshafts for all types of cars. He's gone now but I know this video would've brought a big smile to his face same as it did mine.
"double-checked everything so much that it never made any profit." besides saving the world and 200,000 people from a nuclear explosion and aftermath fallout. toils and fruits of labor, little or no reward to reap, bred master workmanship and craftsmanship that can't be beat.
Legends. My father in law was a precision engineer. Miss him. I stood in awe as he explained how to use a lathe to make a crankshaft. We both have the merlin engine at the science museum as sneaky rub and hug. A dying art.

why the fuck are people trying to poke holes in this guy's compliment? it's not a controversial statement that Guy has his own style - a style that very few even want. does he look stupid? kind of. IS he stupid? NO! is this "ford guy" a twat? fucking YES!
As a Brit, it's sad that engineers in the UK are not held in high esteem. If you tell people you're an engineer, they they you're there to fix the photocopier.
So many things I admire about Guy but above all is that every one of these tasks he is given over the years he seems to always impress the Master/Instructor and not bullshit TV pats on the back for the camera. He holds many World Records in such varieties that can only be attributed to his dedication to everything he puts his mind to.
I have nothing but sheer admiration for the Japanese people and what they’ve achieved over the centuries. It’ll be a sad day if they ever stop making things to such a high standard.
I lived in Japan for over nine years (in the '90s), and I can vouch for this sort of salt-of-the-earth craftsmen, but there's a flip side to this; in the US (and, I suspect, elsewhere), there are many such older craftsmen who have been sidelined in the 'rush to modernity', whose minds are similarly full of a wealth of knowledge about the field to which they (in many cases, selflessly) devoted their lives. Once the last of these has passed away, their accumulated knowledge will be irretrievable, and we will all be the poorer for it...
Love the video. We still do have guys in the UK with such skill and knowledge. But agree its a dying trade on a manual machine. CNC such a component in a third of the time nowadays.
Clicked on this not knowing what to expect... absolutely delightful to watch a Master at his work, and Guy as an apprentice. This was enormously satisfying! Good job.
"The sound." Finally someone else who understands. My boss hates it when I burn through younger workers, I tell him as soon as I get a person who doesn't go straight for the radio first and has a passion to learn I'll teach them everything I know.
Agreed, when working in many different fields it's amazing just how much the changes in sound can tell you about what is happening. I rather like it, make the processes more 'alive' and one more part of it.
@@spikeypineapple552 Nothing about toxicity, and everything to do with a precision mindset. I believe you just illustrated Probo's point without being aware of it.
@@user-qy9rg3nt2l lmao doubt it, I'm a 28 year old machinist, I hold tolerances 3x more precise than this guy every single day. I've got a sma business which employs people, it's a shame you two are so full of hate and anger you never chose to bring up a generation behind you, just put them down.
as a machinist, everything hes doing looks pretty normal. I wish someone would have been fascinated and idolized me when i run a machine, shit even give me a bit of appreciation. Cause being a machinist in a machine shop is about as un glamours as it gets... but glad hes getting some recognition
I wish I had your drive and enthusiasm, Guy. Everything I watch of yours I see genuine happiness and joy. You are a very lucky man. I only wish you the best in life dude 🙏🏽
Watching him measure the outside diameter with the (Mitutoyo of course 😏) micrometer, I was struck by the fact he didn't use the small friction-tumbler... instead, adjusting the main spindle.... trusting in his own feel for the instrument. That right there is a sign of someone who eats, sleeps & drinks "machining" .... Bear in mind that if the part is machined too aggressively , it will heat up & expand, giving an erroneous measurement... 😓 Love watching people who know what they are doing, regardless of their field of expertise... the discipline, the easy concentration, the confidence in their abilities is humbling. 🤗 😎👍☘️🍺
I noticed he was doing the finishing cut with a tnmg insert with a positive type cutting geometry to reduce deflection on the final cut and give an accurate finished size.

what a load of tosh the guy has never made any money and is using a hand held micrometer, and using a manual lathe that came out of the ark, what is scary is the fact that parts made I such a poor quality controlled environment is being put into nuclear power stations
@@nealecarbis3637 the fact that his work has stood the test of time in nuclear applications should tell you how full of shit your comment is.
Neale Carbis I think it’s more impressive using the equipment he’s using to make what he is. Just because he isn’t using fancy cnc machines that do everything for you doesn’t mean anything. How do you think the first nuclear power plant parts were made? Don’t think they had all the fancy machines like today 🤔
Guy is such a humble and genuine bloke, he makes you listen
Guy is sound and so respectful.
Respect .
Good workmanship demands respect. I too did an apprenticeship and have worked with tools all my life. There is something satisfying about fabricating an item which is both functional and good to look at.
Someone please find this man an apprentice. 60,000 hours of knowledge cannot be allowed to die.
not trying to be disrespectful to him or his knowledge, but can a computer not achieve this same level of accuracy? This seems like another job that will be automated out of existence
@@ABversion87 Not when creating one offs like that. You can, but you'll take more time and have more scrap.
@@ABversion87 Someone still needs to design said piece as a 3D model or some sort of Cad file for an automated machine to work. Can't just press play. There will be another form of someone working behind a door for countless hours making sure its done correctly. Just not in the way you may think.
He had 60.000 hours when he reached the Takumi distinction, this man has at least 180.000 hours of work, most likely a lot more than that
@@Syncopianot replying for you but for anyone coming across this in the future.
Conversational machines are way more capable to make single one off parts than any manual lathe is. Way quicker and more accurate with actually less scrap because the machine does exactly what its told. The only way you could make a bad part or scrap one is if you incorrectly input the wrong dimensions into the machine, or read your drawing or measuring tool incorrectly, which is the same exact problem you would have on a manual machine.
Guy is so positive and respectful. What a neat person.
Agreed!
that's why he is my idol.
The respect Guy had for the man was so good to see. And that's why Guy is so well liked. He's not some 'top gear numpty' he's the real deal.
I always love the respect that Guy shows artisans and old school engineers. We should all regard these individuals with the same endearing respect.
This is why my 46 year old Datsun still works perfectly.
.......it's Nissan today but Datsun was good . Toyota and Honda are today's consistantly reliable vehicles . Generally made in Canada is better than made in America , German cars made in Germany better than if made in America . The GM cars made in Australia ( Holden) were better than the American built .

*I honestly feel that of all the the worlds 'television presenters' - not a **_one_** would be more fit to respect, honor and highlight this truly awesome Japanese master than Guy Martin - **_Proper! . . . ._* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💓
Two people with a truly genuine passion, emotionally involved in their skills.
One of Guy's best. I'm 70 a diehard race fan and lifelong admirer of skilled hands. Racing and fabrication have always gone together -- Guy does a service here by showing why. I'm no Japanese master but still work in a trade. There is money to be made here in the US, but the people willing to work with their hands is dwindling. As long as parts wear out, we'll need skilled hands. When we lose appreciation for masters and the words "hand made" become a fashion statement we're slowly losing something important -- this isn't nostalgia ladies and gents.
This is so remarkable. To get that kind of a compliment from a Japanese Master is worth more than anything Guy could ever achieve. Sure, it will not matter that much, but this compliment is the highest praise this old man could give, and Guy should be very, very proud of that.
Stumbled across this one accidentally and almost shed a tear out of respect for that engineer. Thanks for sharing it with the world, Guy!
Im in tears of joy watching this...Thank you Guy Martin and thank you to Japan for the mechincal engineering skills of masters! Thank you Japan! Thank you.
God bless you for taking the time to show these old masters before they’re gone. My dad was a WW2 veteran and a tool maker. What I’d give for 5 minutes with him.
As a toolmaker myself, i worked for an aerospace company during and after my apprenticeship. It took 4 years of hard work and i can appreciate exactly why Guy is in awe of this man as it is how i looked up to the guys who trained me. The level of precision you need is second to none and even though i no longer practise the trade i would love one day to invest in a lathe and mill so i can get creative with metal again.
Guy is an amazing human being. His enthusiasm is intoxicating.
“In one year he could become a master”. To most people he probably would make that number 40 years. Including himself. That is incredible praise.
Out of the many videos of Guy I've binge watched over the past two days, this is the most precious to me. I have an admiration, love, and respect for the Japanese people, and to see Guy have the same, makes me love him even more. Two legends in one video. Thank you so much for this.
I love Guy's appreciation for the skill and art of the master machinist. That touches my heart.
And this is why I love Japan so much.

A I am an Australian engineer, now retired, and in the 1980s I worked for Hitachi. It was a time when they made the highest quality IBM compatible mainframe computers in the world. I was successfully competing against IBM in the Australian market and I spent every fifth week back in Japan learning how the company operated and what made their computer products so good. They listened to my opinions with respect.
I took the Bullet Train to Kanagawa and then was driven high into the foothills of Mt Fuji where the mainframe factory was located. The road wound high through dense forests and then opened up to reveal this huge campus with two main factory buildings surrounded by apartment blocks, sporting facilities, schools and a hospital for their workers and families.
In the foyer of the main business center stood a 1942 Long Lance Torpedo...their wartime pride and joy. The factory was like a vast operating theatre and the uniforms were different colour shirts and caps denoting your rank and function. The engineering was amazing and I have been to IBM White Plains factory to compare. IBM mainframes needed water cooling but Hitachi's didn't. Workers are treated with respect and dedication is rewarded with gifts and holidays. Most engineering workers are recuited before they graduate from university and their fees are paid.
I spent time in the Head Office in Tokyo and it was the same there. It was serious business and their accounting systems and budgeting was perfectly managed. I learned more while at Hitachi than with any other employer in my career.
Far beyond the satisfaction of doing a good job this man's innermost spirit drives him towards perfection. To find meaning in one's craft is blessing indeed!
I'm 20 years old and i'm a proud tool maker in Switzerland. I really love my Job.
Guy admires people who make a positive, practical difference with their skills and talent. Celebrities can take a running jump. Part of the reason so many people like him.
The way Guy approaches what seems to be everything in life is something I aspire to achieve.
I’ve been a tool and die maker for forty years,your exactly right Guy.The young guys today do not want to learn a trade that involves getting their hands dirty.My hands have been cut up and stained with oil for pretty much my entire life.I use to be self conscious of it when ever out with a pretty girl at a fine dining establishment ,until I met my wife who said that’s what attracted her to me...lol I’ve also have been a motorcycle fanatic my entire life since my first one at ten yrs.old,I guess that’s why I’ve watched your videos here in USA we pretty much. have the same passions.I’m retired now and my dirty hands have made it possible for me to live in my beautiful 10 acres in the middle of the Shenandoah mountains,tinkering with my lathe and milling machine able to make anything I like ( mostly stuff for my dirt bikes and triumph road bike).i don’t think you’ve made a video I didn’t like,thanks...ps, if you see Mr.McGuinness please ask him to please retire,along with yourself.I would hate for anything to happen to either one of you...jus sayin’
great comment man
I have a 6 year old grandson who has been around tradesmen his whole life. He looooooves tools and being around the blokes doing stuff. Had an occasion recently where he was up on the roof with me as well as his dad and uncle. Some bitch walking past screeched at us that she was calling the workplace health and safety inspector on us and that it was disgusting that we were putting the kid's life in danger. Soooooo angry we were. Poor kid was devastated that we had to get him down and not let him up there with us. This is what is killing the trades, harpies like that who have the power to call the coercive arm of the state in to regulate what can and can't be done with our kids so the kids end up in front of a computer screen and told to shut up and not bother the adults. Very sad.
Pinkle Dorg Not a bad living at all,especially in the future.You need someone to make the machines ,that make the machines that make the machines.There is absolutely nothing a machinist didn't touch in one form or another, first.Your right though,you could even break a finger nail !!
"uncooked ham1 day ago
Haha, same! My husband says it was my filthy mouth and tits that attracted me to him! Haha!"
May he rest in peace...thanks to your cooking. One natural necessity 90% of women are incapable of creating these days.
Sadly the apprenticeships and the work just isn't there anymore. Shortage of machinists, but also nowhere to get started, and wages that are comparable to a shelf stacker. Back in the day a machinist earned a decent wedge, those days are long gone at the bottom end.
Guy is a talented guy. He puts his hands to anything and the experts always say he has a knack/talent for it.
I am a Toolmaker, served my time at Rolls in Barnoldswick , we are a dying breed over here as well.
I tell people that I was a journeyman toolmaker and I can see by the look on their faces that they are clueless.
I’m interested to get a toolmakers opinion on these tolerances? A toolmaker I got chatting to said he regularly worked to tolerances finer than this chap (not sure how legitimate that statement is). Also he said he had way too much schwarf? whilst working? No idea how that is spelt?) the end product looks decent enough though
@@dumbleduke4225 The tolerances are pretty tight but could be tighter. If you look at when they show the drawing there is h9 (outside) and H8 (inside) next to the dimensions . These are standard hole/shaft fits and not particularly close tolerance ones (0.13 not very close at all tbh, if you google you could find a chart). I'm sure he's had to make parts to much tighter tolerances in the past. Hats off to him for carrying on into his 80's. A master at his work.
Mattie 75 his missus is probably taking secret swimming lessons.
You know you’ve got a good turner when he’s used all the tolerance to give you the easiest time of fitting it.
How this guy pulls chips out of the lathe with gloves on and still have all 10 fingers after 50 years will remain a mystery forever.
YEAH :D
true, saw a guy with gloves almost losing his fingers in front of me doing the same thing, f'ed up his entire hand.
And all that stuff on the floor with no guard round the chuck. You can tell he's the only one who uses that lathe, knows every trip point by heart.
1:38 / 3:18
He's wearing gloves to not affect his measuring equipment with the heat from his hands. I'm sure if he was gou g to lose a finger he would have done so by now.
Literally every single thing guy try’s he’s a master and fully shocks anyone he works with he’s such a legend!!!
He reminds me of my father,true master in furniture building,these amazing designers are dwindling away and you have to respect the master for all his hard work,his love and passion for what he does day in day out is made from love and commitment,Oregato.
I am a time served fitter / turner from the late 80's I know exactly how Guy feels watching this man. Just about all machining today is done on CNC machines. Hand turning and milling is becoming a thing of the past.
I'm 47 and when I did my apprenticeship back in the 80s we had tool makers all over in garages, factory's and industrial estates absolutely amazing skills and knowledge. I worked with guy for six months and during his lunch breaks was manufacturing a scaled fully working traction engine..! and to my absolute honour I turned to bronze caps so a bit of me is in their too!
Language barrier or not, you could feel the respect there from Master to Student. Fantastic stuff! What an experience for Guy!
I have worked extensively with Japanese engineering people and have been to Japan a few times and I get this reverential aura ...
They are so good at their respective jobs but so humble with it...
I can totally relate to this snippet of “real engineering expertise”...
Beautiful video..
This trip to Japan was brilliant. Thanks Guy!
Got to love Guy's TV shows you can tell he puts his heart and soul in to evey program he makes and he shows it how it is no lies no short cuts just a 110% genuine bloke and 110% genuine TV shows proper job
Guy you never stop impressing me, mate. And I've said it before, but you really do epitomise a big part of our towns old, respectful and decent folk. One of my uncles is a master chippy and to watch him work is mesmerising. He'd be like you in that shop and just as respectful. Well done, mate.
ive been in engineering for the past 3 years now and i gotta say i still cant get the feel for a micrometer perfectly, these guys are seriously skilled im proud to be working in this industry
That older person looked like he had so much fun. It's probably been a while since he's worked with someone younger which is sad. Letting his knowledge go to waste once he passes :(
The word master seems not enough enough to convey just how much these individuals have changed our life’s for the better. There passing is something that just cannot be replaced
Guy almost cried before the engineer did anything :O Thats what i call true admiration.
Guy needs to get his testosterone levels checked, they look low.
It’s so nice to see you understand what I also understand! It’s not just work to him, it’s art! Something to be proud of! Something that will last our lifetime and probably generation to come
This Japanese guy is truly at one with his tools and work, he said my tools are an extension of my hands WOW, no computers here, respect old wise man 👍
You dont have to speak the same language as someone to be able to appreciate them as a human being. Guy is top notch...
I just love the respect Guy shows the Master. Just wonderful!!
My dad was a lathe engineer in Coventry. He turned crankshafts for all types of cars. He's gone now but I know this video would've brought a big smile to his face same as it did mine.

This man earned the right to wear gloves around a lathe.

What a fantastic human, it takes a very special person to have continued drive to work at that age.
Much respect to that Master he makes me proud to be a Toolmaker 🙏
My admiration knows no bounds for people who are as skilled as this gentleman, and all artisans everywhere.
Guy's talents never stop amazing me what an absolute legend
So many things I admire about Guy but above all is that every one of these tasks he is given over the years he seems to always impress the Master/Instructor and not bullshit TV pats on the back for the camera. He holds many World Records in such varieties that can only be attributed to his dedication to everything he puts his mind to.
I have nothing but sheer admiration for the Japanese people and what they’ve achieved over the centuries. It’ll be a sad day if they ever stop making things to such a high standard.
I received so much joy watching you acknowledge the mastery of this man, thank you!
I lived in Japan for over nine years (in the '90s), and I can vouch for this sort of salt-of-the-earth craftsmen, but there's a flip side to this; in the US (and, I suspect, elsewhere), there are many such older craftsmen who have been sidelined in the 'rush to modernity', whose minds are similarly full of a wealth of knowledge about the field to which they (in many cases, selflessly) devoted their lives. Once the last of these has passed away, their accumulated knowledge will be irretrievable, and we will all be the poorer for it...
I was thinking the same thing. Its a sad thought to think "at least in japan he still has a job"

Watching him measure the outside diameter with the (Mitutoyo of course 😏) micrometer, I was struck by the fact he didn't use the small friction-tumbler... instead, adjusting the main spindle.... trusting in his own feel for the instrument.
That right there is a sign of someone who eats, sleeps & drinks "machining" ....
Bear in mind that if the part is machined too aggressively , it will heat up & expand, giving an erroneous measurement... 😓
Love watching people who know what they are doing, regardless of their field of expertise... the discipline, the easy concentration, the confidence in their abilities is humbling. 🤗
😎👍☘️🍺
Always did the same thing, specialy on such diameters, you have to feel it, maybe lock it then pull it out and see how it sounds when you pull it off.
I noticed he was doing the finishing cut with a tnmg insert with a positive type cutting geometry to reduce deflection on the final cut and give an accurate finished size.
