Mr. Crispin...... you are not natural Born.... you are made from old manual Mill and Lathe parts, and an old Machinist Handbook.... Chapeau!!!!!!!! Fantastic skills.... and a great way of teaching!
I watched the original videos, and still enjoyed the whistle-stop version! Keep doing the full-length films, and then a condensed version. Both have their place. Best wishes from George [in Herefordshire]
Never has the phrase “satisfactory outcome” been such an understatement! I’m wondering what it would take to have you punching the air with excitement at something you have achieved. Once again mr crispin, excellent show. Do keep it up.
Great job. No medical treatment or meds needed. Wasn't boring. I have found your setup and failure features very instructive. I'm a novice "machinist" that is attempting to build a 7 1/2 gauge 1.6 scale heavy pacific loco. Thank you for the videos.
Thank heavens we have all the piston vids to watch....you cant show the painting of the Sistine chapel in 12 minutes...we are here for your Michelangelo like quality craftsmanship, which even he would be proud of....We would watch you change a light bulb, cheers!
You have had your bit of fun with your Bow and Arrow plus a trip across the Sea, let’s get that Hat firmly on the hook and crack on finishing this Loco. Then you can start building another one for us !
The consistency of your hat toss is awe inspiring. Not only do you land it every time but in exactly the same spot! It's almost as if... no, couldn't be.
That was stunningly succinct, Crispin! I must not be sane or average, though, as I very much like the full Monty. For one thing, more time equals more opportunities for your wit to shine through.
Thank you for showing how to make the same part efficiently ….used the technique today on some parts worked a treat all done with out removing the original material from the chuck….. really pleased
I watched all the previous videos, driv8ng me completely nuts of course 🤪. No seriously, enjoyed every detail of it, but your summary video is brilliant.
A nice reminder of the videos you've made making these pistons. Looking forward to seeing the future videos, I love your presentation style, and the way you describe not just what you are doing but why you are doing it that way.
Well, I called for medical assistance, but was told it was a 72 hour wait for an ambulance, so that gave me an opportunity to watch the full series again, by then I was feeling much better, though whether I was actually better only a doctor could say, if there were any doctors seeing patients at the moment, which there aren't, so we're going to have go on my own assessment.
Good morning Mr Crispin 🤠 Hope you’re well 👍🏻 Welcome back and see your still using your brothers tooth brush 🤣 Nice catch up with some fantastic machining 😀 Looking forward to seeing some more videos later 😆 Cheers Stevie 😎
Just a quick note to thank you for your videos. I understand and appreciate how much effort you are putting in to provide us with this content. Thank you, thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!
Great video as usual, but I definitely love the detail that you put into your longer videos. Love the commentary and descriptions of what you're doing and why. Thanks for all the work you put into entertaining us!
Mr Crispin, if the day job doesn't work out with that tash you can always apply as an extra for a 1950's British sit com! Another cracking video; the dad jokes are coming on well!
Clever bugger. Very impressed. I do most work on my motorcycles, but haven’t got a lathe. I doff my hat to your skill. Obviously piston fitting in your world is slightly different to the bike world; I’m talking tolerances. 👍
For a young chappie your machining skill and very old school ways which usually comes with years of experience well impressed from a bloke with 41 yrs Aerospace experience your very good and I hope RR look after you, if you still work there? well done Mr Crispin when will you be readyish for steam??.
Great stuff Mr C ! No medication required, but I did experience a short bout of BLUD-DY HELL, as probably did most. Most enjoyable, and thank you, keep it up.
I have made small C/A motors for model plane use. Currently on a .370 bore apposed twin cylinder motor I have turned rings from polystyrene which when split seem to work well. My problem has been to achieve adequate piston fit without excessive friction.
I'm really looking forward to seeing this steam loco run. I know these things take a lot of time, but it seems you are making consistent progress. 👍😁 Cheers M8!
I have previously watched all the full length videos, and still sat through the 12 minute compilation, without any medical intervention. Does that classify me as the average sane human being?
A nice recap of the work you've completed. By no means a substitute for the whole show though. Having watched that I've been left with the distinct feeling of having watched "on previous episodes..." and am now ready to watch an hour or two of finishing the rest of the piston blocks, cross heads etc. Never mind. All good things come to those who wait as they say. I'll just have to look forward to seeing it in a few weeks/months or whenever you get around to it.
Thank you for this, it must have taken a lot of editing to get the video down to twelve minutes. I love how your channel is developing - your quirky style of humour is great. Personally, I like the more detailed longer vids, but will also watch these shorter ones!
Lovely work! I have seen the whole series. The truncated version while nice does not do it justice to the work you put in. With that said stellar work and "Pistons to you!"
Do you need to go through the ring heating process? Machine the rings oversize then finish machine round by clamping to size as you did in this demo, perhaps I am missing something. Great video, lovely to watch a professional!
Hi, good question, the idea is that you don't have to re machine after heat treatment and that you get a perfect piston ring the first time round. So in that case you heat treat to give the expanded position. In the case of starting with a bigger one and machining down after heat treat then yes there is probably an argument that you don't need to heat treat.
The content is very interesting the more detail the better. I have a question about high speed steel blanks and how long does it take to run through a blank with general hobby work ? keep up the good work and catch you on the next one lol.
I don't think I have ever run through a blank from re sharpening. It's more that you need to alter the form for something your doing so you grind a new shape on and eventually you have to go back to a square end and start again. I do most heavy turning with carbide I just use HSS either for form work or sometimes surface finish. I've got bits of HSS that I've been using for at least 10 years
More than one cunning plan, actually. The piece of foam to hold the wires for thread measuring is a nice one too. As cunning as a fox who's just been appointed professor of cunning at Oxford university.
Mr. Crispin...... you are not natural Born.... you are made from old manual Mill and Lathe parts, and an old Machinist Handbook....
Chapeau!!!!!!!! Fantastic skills.... and a great way of teaching!
I say Mr Crispin old boy, absolutely drawn in and didn’t realise twelve minutes could pass by so quickly, brilliant work I’m impressed.
Excellent work !!!
I watched the original videos, and still enjoyed the whistle-stop version!
Keep doing the full-length films, and then a condensed version. Both have their place.
Best wishes from George [in Herefordshire]
The parting of the bobbin was magic. Bravo!
Never has the phrase “satisfactory outcome” been such an understatement! I’m wondering what it would take to have you punching the air with excitement at something you have achieved.
Once again mr crispin, excellent show. Do keep it up.
A nice recap of the work you have done. One of the great advantages of getting on in years is that it was like looking at a brand new video...
The full length videos were great and I enjoy them very much. However this little refresher course was most welcome. Cheers
A really worthwhile summary of the tremendous work that you put into producing the pistons. Thanks very much.
Great job. No medical treatment or meds needed. Wasn't boring. I have found your setup and failure features very instructive. I'm a novice "machinist" that is attempting to build a 7 1/2 gauge 1.6 scale heavy pacific loco. Thank you for the videos.
No need of medical assistance. Thanks for taking care my mental health by providing me insightful video content. Take care
CLEAR AND CONCISE.
12x minutes are nothing when, one is enjoying himself.
Thank You Sir.
I'm not an average human Being.. i love the super detailed 40 minutes videos 🤩🤩
Thank heavens we have all the piston vids to watch....you cant show the painting of the Sistine chapel in 12 minutes...we are here for your Michelangelo like quality craftsmanship, which even he would be proud of....We would watch you change a light bulb, cheers!

Yes, it's possible he's been practicing rather than working on the loco.
If only the reasons why I have not been working on the locomotive were that trivial!
@@MrCrispinEnterprises As you've replied I'm soooo pleased I went with this version of what came into my head.
Replies......I see them all!
Hello Mr. Crispin,
Nice idea creating a summary video... See you on the next one...
Take care.
Paul,,
Wouldn’t matter to me if your videos were 10 seconds long or 10hrs - I would still watch them with the same enthusiasm and with a smile on my face 😀
That was stunningly succinct, Crispin! I must not be sane or average, though, as I very much like the full Monty. For one thing, more time equals more opportunities for your wit to shine through.
Parting of the bobbins was a very clever way to do that.
Thank you for showing how to make the same part efficiently ….used the technique today on some parts worked a treat all done with out removing the original material from the chuck….. really pleased
Cylinder assy is looking fantastic !
This Loco will be a gem 👌
Cheers, from Canada !!
To the best teacher ever your videos are in a class of their own I can't wait for the next video
Thanks
An excellent summary!
Loved the nightcap.
Excellent summary! Very clever 'Plan B' jig setup for machining the outside of the piston rings. Thank you for sharing.
A fabulous overview of what is a most informative and entertaining series. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment.
Mr Crispin!
Thanks for another splendid video of yours.
Looking sharp I must say
Thank you Mr C. Your videos & commentary soothe me like a poultice on a sore.
I watched all the previous videos, driv8ng me completely nuts of course 🤪. No seriously, enjoyed every detail of it, but your summary video is brilliant.
Well done, thank you for sharing your talent and humor.
seeing all these operations condensed into 12 minutes sure highlights your genius -thank you!
Peerless engineering from Mr. C as usual. What an absolute treat to be given an insight into the mind of such an engineering wizard!
0:12 great alignment, good follow through, strong shot.
A nice reminder of the videos you've made making these pistons. Looking forward to seeing the future videos, I love your presentation style, and the way you describe not just what you are doing but why you are doing it that way.
I enjoyed this and I'm not an engineer, as all ways educational and entertaining, I like your methodology and attention to detail.
I watch all of your videos. I very much enjoyed the recap. Thank you. Best wishes, Dean in Oxfordshire.

There is magic in steam engines, even in the building process. Great content!
Well done Mr Crispin wonderfully presented.
No medical assistance required!! Nice to see you again. Patiently waiting for some new videos. Cheers!!
Just a quick note to thank you for your videos. I understand and appreciate how much effort you are putting in to provide us with this content. Thank you, thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!
No problem! Thanks for watching
Mr Crispin we really enjoyed the short movie looks like your getting closer great stuff
Great video as usual, but I definitely love the detail that you put into your longer videos. Love the commentary and descriptions of what you're doing and why. Thanks for all the work you put into entertaining us!
whooohooo, survived 12+ minutes. Well done, this recap, Sir!
Mr Crispin, if the day job doesn't work out with that tash you can always apply as an extra for a 1950's British sit com! Another cracking video; the dad jokes are coming on well!
Ah ya tricky old fox! Your method with clamping the piston rings in a sleeve and turn them down made me stand up and take notice!
Thanks for that. It's always more interesting to me to see how people cope with problems.
I enjoyed the original detailed videos, but this was an excellent recap.
It's perfect for my ADD riddled brain. Parting the bobbin was amazing, I need to re-watch that in the longer version. Thanks for sharing.
I ever see your work , you done perfectly.
I used to wish to make a steam train by myself.
Many thanks
FR.
Most excellent, can't wait to see more of the build.
Top of the game youth !
Very enjoyable as always
Very nice compilation sir. I look foreword to the machine under power. So many ring factors to consider.
It was a lovely recap of you excellent series on pistons and rings. Thank you!
Beautiful little video.
Excellent result. I enjoyed watching the full videos and this overview was brilliant. Keep up the good work.
Ha! Your disclaimer has no power over me! I shall watch the entire series again!
Excellent stand alone video, great insight into the very detailed manufacture.
Thanks for sharing.
Clever bugger. Very impressed. I do most work on my motorcycles, but haven’t got a lathe. I doff my hat to your skill. Obviously piston fitting in your world is slightly different to the bike world; I’m talking tolerances. 👍
Enjoyable! Looking forward the the next exciting release! Cheers from Christchurch New Zealand!

Thanks. Yes still at RR. Steam will be a long time yet!
Been looking forward to seeing more on the steam engine. Yay!
Great stuff Mr C ! No medication required, but I did experience a short bout of BLUD-DY HELL, as probably did most. Most enjoyable, and thank you, keep it up.
I survived sir. More please.

I liked all of the full-length version videos and I really liked this one.
Great video, well put together and it’s clear you know what you’re doing
Very nicely put together video and machining.
Thanks for the recap. Stunning machine work!
I prefer the long format, but am also well pleased to enjoy both :)

Looking forward to the continuing saga.
Wow! I found it VERY interesting.
Great work, 12minutes flew by.
A Top Job and like the other viewers I found the 12 min went by very quickly
I enjoyed that almost as much as the longer versions, keep up the informative work and keep the tache!
Great work as usual & a good watch.
Lovely work! I have seen the whole series. The truncated version while nice does not do it justice to the work you put in. With that said stellar work and "Pistons to you!"

Perfect! Seen these all in full, but a great summary. Those pistons are huge compared to my 3.5" Juliet! :D
Here here old fellow, gt8 vid but preferred the full version.
Always interesting thanks for sharing and stay safe 👍
Excellent and entertaining, keep em coming.
Good to see you
Think I prefer the full Monty, so much more peripheral information to glean, really enjoy what you do.
I know nothing about engineering but after watching a few of your videos I’m thinking of getting a lathe & mill 😂😂
Oh dear, my most sincere apologies!

Professor of cunning at Oxford, must be a bit of a stunt.
I want to see the mill throwing the hat back.
Well I certainly did very informative thank you mr crispin by the way there seems to be a little squirrel resting on your top lip
Thoroughly enjoyable video.
Or I may have gone insane...no way to tell. 😂
Lord of the piston rings!
