My father was a Slotter, and I remember him sitting there for hours, digging chips out of the soles of his work boots, with a penknife. Over the years, he must've brought home a few hundredweight of steel, in the soles of his work boots.
I have been following Trent and Heath for some time Adam , they are great craftsmen , your boots are in safe hands with those guys . Thanks for the video Adam 👏👏👏👍🇬🇧🍺
I've been watching Trenton and Heath for about a year now. It's super addictive. They're the biggest reason why I restored my old Redwing Supersoles from 19 years ago when I worked at the printing company. There was printing ink all over them.
One of the things I learned during my military tour “USAF” ‘51/‘54 was to change your boots every day. That was drilled into us during basic training & it has stuck me. Alternating your boots give them more time to dry out & extend the life of your boots. It also improves your foot health.
Man! That is a big chuck of metal! Careful planning, measurement and preparation is 90% of machine work. You have done those three things. Your outcome is guaranteed.
I used to work in broadcast TV years ago on the engineering end as well as production and I know a good writer/producer/director of documentary style videos when I see one. You have the skills of a professional. You understand the fundamental concepts of human interest, storyboard continuity, camera work, narration, post production, editing, music, time lapse and technical quality. In short, you could work in the business of documentary video production if given the opportunity. You are that good. Your openings, main subject continuity, closings and attention to detail are the best I have seen on TH-cam in a long time. Your shot angles and placement of the cameras is perfect in that they provide a very important element when telling a story using video...perspective. The close-ups are downright mesmerizing. I too, like thousands of others, am addicted to your videos and check my email everyday for another upload. Good job, Adam..!
I could both smell and taste that rust dust. Spent many an hour doing wire brush rust removal at an old job. Wore the same respirators that the painters used, but I could still smell/taste the rust. Ah, the memory of a nasty dirty back breaking job. Thanks, I think.. :)
The job I didn't like the most in an automotive shop was cleaning the carbon off of intake and exhaust valves. I could smell and taste the dust from that for a couple days.
I came to your channel after seeing Trenton & Heath repair your boots. You are a fine teacher. I was going to school to become a machinist and then the doctors disabled me because of complications of a head and neck injury suffered in a head-on collision. I tried working with the machines I had but had to throw in the towel when I lost so much hand strength I could no longer safely do things. I still love machine work and always enjoy seeing a good teacher sharing their craft.
Hey there Adam, I somehow found your channel a few days ago. I'm really glad I did! I'm no machinist nor have I ever work in a machine shop. I was a mechanic for around 30 years. I've also done some welding and fabrication work here and there. Having said that I now remember how I found your channel. It was a spray welding vid you did awhile ago. I must Sir that you are a pleasure to watch! From the few videos I've watched. You knowledge, skill, and attention to detail is just outstanding! I'm not in a financial position to be able to donate to the channel. I'm no longer able to work in my trade, nor can I get a work release from any of my doctors. But I just wanted to reach out and at least tell you my thoughts about your work and channel. I know it takes time to produce this type of content and still get your machining work done. You do an outstanding job at both!! So Thank You Sir for all your time and efforts! They are truly appreciated! Again OUTSTANDING work Sir!!
I appreciate the way the youtube craftspeople share projects and viewers among the various trades and channels. The history of building this country was very dependent on cooperation between the trades and skilled crafts that support the workers in specialized professions.
for it's day a great engineering accomplishment, now today it takes highly skilled professionals to make this engine and the rest of the tender plus the locomotive too. This engine has undergone quite the transformation from the first time Keith introduce it to us.
I love indicating, and setups videos. It's what got me hooked on Abomb's channel years ago. I'm not a machinist or fabricator, it looks like magic to a layperson like me.
They did an excellent job on your boots. I seen their video redoing your boots, that's what brought me to your channel and I subscribed! Keep up the great work, love your videos!
Good video. Interestingly enough, one of the boot repair videos popped up in my feed a couple of days ago. Neat stuff. Thanks for taking us along with your projects.
Who in their right mind doesn't throw a couple bucks worth of WD-40 on big bare metal parts like that? I'm allergic to chasing rust with a wire wheel all day long! 😃
@@paulcopeland9035 Wow - I don't pay attention as to when videos are uploaded, I just watch and enjoy them ! I've seen a few from his old work and just hadn't realised he was no longer there - so it's taken me by surprise !
I tried a pair of thorogoods after you mentioned them a couple years back, and I haven’t worn dire t work boots since. I’ve been through danner, Wolverine, redwing, you name it, the thorogoods are hands down the most comfortable work boots, and made in USA! You ain’t gonna run a marathon in them, but you can’t beat the comfort, stability, and durability. I send mine back to thorogood for refinishing, but want to see how these guys do with yours.
Great video Adam. I stumbled on the Trenton & Heath youtube videos a few months ago and have been enjoying watching them. Looking forward to seeing your boots given a new life.
Next time I see you cleaning up that rust I want you to wear a mask, like the ones we use in this pandemic cause I want to keep you in good health. you are the BEST out there.
Being in Construction for 25 years I have always appreciated the skill of machinists have. I love how with some of the work they do there is more work in the set up than the actual machining. My fear is, like the construction industry, the people with the skills necessary to do quality work are slowly disappearing. We need young people to realize the value of carrying on these skills and how important it is to always have people who can do these things. Thanks Abom for what you do.
Young people today only want to feed a computer that will do the job, so old people like Adam and me will be the last of the trade making 1 of a peace.......
When I saw boot repair in the title, I was going to mention Trenton and Heath. Glad I watched the entire video prior to posting. Looking forward to seeing how they turn out.
Hey Adam great videos you make nice to see someone shows a fine craftmanship. I'm also a machinist of old school and I'm from Denmark here metalworkers honors their work like you do. you shall receive a great cadau here from Denmark
It would be interesting to see the initial contact machining of the square in slow-mo. If possible. Maybe next time❓👍🏻👍🏻 Thanks for your time to share with us ‼️ The right tools ‼️👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great Adam! I also found potter and son / Trenton and Heath. I sent a pair of Allen Edmonds to the guys and its amazing the craftsmanship they have. You will be so happy with them..
When I see Stroker engine I think 383ci SBC (small block Chevy). I put one in a 1986 Chevy S10 back in the day before LS swap the world. Started on it at the age of 13 learning how to and working to pay for all of it myself. Had it ready to drive just before turning 16 and tuned it to run good at 16 years old. Part of what made me go down the part I did. My family were Carpenters loving them dead tree carcass. Only thing I like about wood was it looked good as the bed in my truck. Love metal
What paid promo did you see? All I saw was him showing things he bought and uses. If you are whining about the bit about the boots at the end, I don't think that was anything other than turning his audience onto a new channel, nothing wrong with helping a fellow craftsman get a few more eyes on their content, at least to me.
@@oldschool1993 I found out about Abom from watching AvE videos, so without the mentions I would have likely never found this channel. I don't see how you can complain about youtube ads when you are paying nothing for the content. I cut the cord when we moved earlier this year, I was paying an arm and a leg to watch F1 races and that's about it, and for the old lady to watch soaps all day. I don't miss it one bit. I don't mind people letting me know they have a patreon or whatever, but I can see how that might rub people the wrong way. Though I think it is fair to try and get what you can, especially with youtube's bizarre rules about what counts as acceptable content.
@@oldschool1993 TH-cam is paying out less per view than they used too, to the point a lot of channels have moved on to other video streaming services and Patreon.
An incredible amount of time and expense before even making the first chip!!!!!! Very cool square stock indicating. WOW, nice even curls off the big-boy bill drit! For those square headed bolts, you needed an adjustable impact wrench. :-)
Couple of tips from a former foundryman, baseball glove lace is a good source for leather boot laces, and cheap, they're burn resistant. Also spray on pickup bedliner on the toes of work boots protect them vary well, but make sure to silicone the boot sole stitching before spraying, or the cobbler can't resole them.
On my four jaw I mark 2 jaws and don’t loosen them so when I flip my parts I just tighten the two that are not marked and it is pretty much on target this just works for after the first set up never tried the trick you just showed for square or even offset square parts I love learning new stuff old school machine’s are the best you learn so much and make you feel like part of it CBC has it’s place but it just makes you a programmer I have done both and preferably old school is the best you have to think about it and come up with new stuff that works I feel much more proud of what I make
I am waiting to see how you are going to get a tool and tool holder stiff enough to cut that channel without chattering. Happy Holidays to you Adam and your family.
Greet video as always but super cool to see the boot segment at the end, Trenton and Heath rock, looking forward to seeing them do your boots. You'll have to go see their machines, those cobbler sewing machines are strange magic devices.
On my small bandsaw it also has a movable jaw . I did use odd blocks to balance out the jaw on short work. I then got the idea to drill and tap a 1/4"-20 hole in the movable jaw on the side opposite the saw blade. I cut a piece of 1/4" allthread and jammed a hand knod on one end. I screw that in the 1/4" taped hole. I use the screw to balance out jaw. Works perfect . May not work on your saw .
Instead of high-speed or carbide you might consider 10% Cobalt High Speed Steel. All my internal and external threading tools are 10% Cobalt and they resist wear like nothing else.
Thanks for sharing with us Adam, hope everything goes well with your machining, looks good so far. Can’t wait to see your boots after reconditioning. Hard to find the boots you need for foot comfort.👍👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's good to see you wearing a mask when grinding that rust. Ive seen a lot of people just stand in a huge cloud with no PPE. I don't know how they do it.
Isn’t great that we live in a world where we can stand over the shoulder of an highly skilled machinist. Thank you Adam!
What do you mean... are you acrobat or gymnast... or something like that!
😂😂😂!
I’m amazed that just last week I found Trenton and Heath and started watching their shoe repair. Now my next Abom79 features these guys.
My father was a Slotter, and I remember him sitting there for hours, digging chips out of the soles of his work boots, with a penknife.

Sky Hook seems to be pretty convenient tool.
Makes moving heavy things around look really easy! Especially if you needed to line something up to bolt it in, like a second pair of hands
They are excellent in the shop.

Trenton & Heath’s episode repairing your boots are how I found your channel! Can’t wait to see your reaction when you get them back.
A Rubber band can be used to hold non magnetic blocks to the stock. Not many people have magnetic blocks.
.
Good idea, I will have to remember that if I need to do square stock.
Thanks for sharing! You might want to give the stoker engine a spray down with that CRC's Rust Inhibitor that you showed in the past.
That was used on the outside table I think. Does not seem to have helped much.
Whenever i see a pilot hole in the stock, i CRANK the volume and anticipate the soothing sound of the drill chips just crackle and curl.. yesss
Sweet! I watch Trenton and Heath too! Great channel!
Love your channel I came over from Trenton and Heath. Look forward to watching more of interesting work.
Trent and Heath ... will soon fix up your boots .. big fan of their’s .. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
