That would also work great using scotch-bright pads if you make the disks a bit bigger, nice work, hand made always works better than having to buy them. :)
That's a great idea. I've often been frustrated at the cost of buying replacements (for my Dremel) - the scotch-brite pads do a good job but don't last long.
While we are talking about make things, when you use the typical 2" angle grinder sanding disks of any grit, when the edges are worn and don't work anymore, cut them down to 1" disks and they will work like new again. Of course you will need a 1" disk holder, but it works. And I found that cutting them down is so easy on a bench grinder from the back side of them...
i can honestly say that he is one of the VERY FEW youtubers that has NEVER put out a bad or boring video !! This guy could most likely make a video of him sweeping up or cleaning his shop and make it look awesome ...
Peace be upon you Thank you and thank you very much, artist (mechanics in the true sense of the word). I follow all your work. And I'm very interested in your art. In my country (Iran), I have not seen a human being capable of you. You work so hard with love that you do whatever you want. You are a real artist
This is why I love TH-cam so much, as it allows someone like myself, in Ohio, USA, to enjoy reading comments from someone afar that also enjoys the technical artistry of these videos. Peace and happiness to you, good sir from Iran.
Really slick , nice work on the arbor . You've got a lot of patience , but that's what you need to do the level of perfection that shows in your projects . Thanks for showing how its done .
Nothing like starting with a 13 mm rod and turning it into a 3 mm screw! I'm always amazed at the talent in these videos. Wish I had that array of machines.
Need these videos so much right now. Thank you for continuing to make them. The care and quality of the storytelling that you put into these projects is just remarkable.
Cannot get enough of these uploads ! Master craftsman !Due to the current unfortunate situation we should all be hoping to see more uploads to break our cabin fever and keep our sanity! Please dont stop ! 10/10 STAY SAFE AND SMART EVERYONE❤
Making a new one is strong with this one. You must use the compound. May my mechanics be with you always. Use the sand blasting media my young machinist. :P
Admiro la gran paciencia, amor y dedicación que pones en cada pieza que restauras. Es un placer ver cada uno de tus videos! Saludos desde Mendoza, Argentina.
Here I thought last night after watching the lamp...I was done for a few weeks Tonight I check the app and you're here Short but sweet Thanks!! I hope you got the message that you were missing a part inside the lamp. Flame spreader :)
I am really enjoying all of the videos. I would like to see how you measure diameters while you are turning metal stock. I would appreciate tips on using micrometers, calipers, and other measuring instruments. Thank you
I would really love for you to give us a tour of your workshop in one of your next videos. I'd be interested in what tools you have and what you think are the essentials for getting started with machining and restoration.
It was so that he could use the side of the platter to chamfer the end instead of turning the compound rest at that angle and use the tip of the platter. Definitely faster than having to reallign the compound rest (wich can be quite a pain in the neck) afterwards. He's a clever one. :)
You are my technical icon. I wish you to take up bike engines and restore. Since engines are having much more mechanism including paint removing process and final paint finishing process.
@my mechanics insights I have discovered your channel very recently, and I instantly loved it. Thank you for this - and really great work - such an enjoyment to watch!! You will soon get the Diamond TH-cam button, I have no doubt. Can you also show your sandblasting machine maybe :)?
Just came across this, nice video. For those of us without a metal lathe, I would think we could do something similar with a hex or lag bolt, as long as it is balanced.
I know it will never be the same, but it took me ten minutes to go to a supply store got a bag of small Dremel buffing wheels and I was on my way, Thank's for the video, I just don't have access to NASA'S machine shop!
So, you machined your own mini buffing tool arbor? You expect me to be impressed? Eh? No...you wanna really impress me, then make your own mini stick of buffing compound! :) Nice job.
That would also work great using scotch-bright pads if you make the disks a bit bigger, nice work, hand made always works better than having to buy them. :)
That's a very good idea. Haven't thought about this. Thank you

Hand made definitely isn't always better.
my mechanics once again making my quarentine time a little bit better ❤️
Glad I could help ;-)
Honey,where’s that lovely 100% cotton bedsheet!
...why does it smell greasy and why does it has holes in it? 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha 😂
my mechanics insights Haha
I bet she's been looking for her salt, vinegar, flour & Scotchbrite pads, too?
@@mymechanicsinsights Since it has holes I can use in my shop! No waste.
Liked the video before i watch cos he doesn't disappoint 👍👌

very impressive and amazing how you got each hole in the cotton disks to line up so well
Love the chuck set-up on that rotary tool.
Yeah, me too :-)
Kal Random agreed, better than my poor old Dremel. Les in UK. Have a safe week-end everyone!
does anyone know, which rotary tool it is? i need a new one :(
@@mymechanicsinsights can you tell us which rotary tool it is? I would like one too. Maybe I make a new one
@@Quwoll Indeed. I use a Dremel a lot for armory in the sport of fencing, and changing the wheels out is a pain sometimes.
New title:

I'll do the same tomorrow for my dremel! Good and simple idea! Why it was not born in my head?))) Thanks!
I looked, but I'd love to see a list of the tools you are using in the shop. Your die grinder, micro media blaster are first on my list. GREAT WORK!

Yes, I hope so :-)
! ! ! Sencillamente estupendo, . . . . hasta pronto ¨Manos Mágicas¨ , . . . saludos desde México.
Brilliant. Nothing is more fun for me than to make a tool.
To actually use it and see it working is more fun for me ;-)
Dude I could only dream about making things like you do, but thanks so much for sharing this idea!
We all love you. 😘 😘
Thank you :-)
You need to start somewhere, your skills will improve with time. Try and make something small, you'll be proud even if it's not as good as you'd like.
Yeps, practical and effective as usual. Top notch.
such a patient man, enjoy your videos, although I don't have your skills and tools really enjoy your videos
Making a new one is strong with this one. You must use the compound. May my mechanics be with you always. Use the sand blasting media my young machinist. :P
Haha, thanks for the comment Master Venger
@@mymechanicsinsights Anytime thank you for the amazing content. Master Mechanic :D
Hab die dinger immer gekauft, weiß gar nicht warum 😀 funktioniert super, hab gleich mehrere größen selbst gebaut 👍. Danke top video
Admiro la gran paciencia, amor y dedicación que pones en cada pieza que restauras. Es un placer ver cada uno de tus videos! Saludos desde Mendoza, Argentina.
You make me want a lathe and to learn machining so badly! It makes the threading tool look so easy to use with precision!
You Creativity is limitless!!!
Thank you
Nice work as always, looking forward to your next restoration
God I love your videos. Excellence personified. Extraordinary.
A bunos video from the last one. Owesome👍👍👍
Thanks :-)
Brilliant. As always.
hey ich luege dini videos mega oft jetzt scho und die sind mega unterhaltend!!
wiiter so💪💪🔥
Very good, man !!! 👍👍👍
such a small thing, and quite ingenious ^^ I hope you get plenty of uses out of it!
I think so :-)
Brilliant! You are very clever. I'm always impressed with your work.
Nice work dude
You sir, are a genius!
Probably it's has been already asked, but could you please let me know what brand/model is that "Dremel" like hand tool?
Minimo is the name of the manufacturer... He replied in one of the earlier comments.
Great video I believe you can make just about anything thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching
Great idea!!
Nice job.
I'll turn down a bolt save on threading it. 😁👍
That minimo tool is really neat. makes me tightening the collet on my rotary tool with a spanner look a bit silly
Great concept.
Here I thought last night after watching the lamp...I was done for a few weeks
Tonight I check the app and you're here
Short but sweet
Thanks!!
I hope you got the message that you were missing a part inside the lamp. Flame spreader :)
I cannot produce the exact same thing, but it still gives me ideas. Thank you.
Fantastic 👍
Insight is a man best friend. Thanks very much for sharing your insights.!.!.!.
I am really enjoying all of the videos. I would like to see how you measure diameters while you are turning metal stock. I would appreciate tips on using micrometers, calipers, and other measuring instruments. Thank you
That's so nice!
Good idea 👍good job 👍👍👍💣👌🏽✌🏻
Keşke senin gibi bir ustam olsa 🥰
You forgot to say "et Voila"
Check the endscreen again ;-)
@@mymechanicsinsights Good one lol :)
I would really love for you to give us a tour of your workshop in one of your next videos.
I'd be interested in what tools you have and what you think are the essentials for getting started with machining and restoration.
And here I was thinkin you just slapped some polishing wheels on a pre existing bit... I shoulda known better! Nicely done bro! And GG as always!
another amazing videoo :D thank you :D
Thanks for watching
Boom! That EZ. Thanks
Lovely diy project....
the tool, that would never untighten. Great!
Awesome vid. I need more to survive in 2020 plz!!!
Do you think at some point you will make a workshop tour, where you go over all of the tools and machines you use?
I will make this one. Thanks
What rotary tool is that? My Dremel doesn't release bits that quickly.
I was wondering too! He prolly made it, judging by some of the videos!
I was wondering the same thing too. Hopefully he will answer.
Someone said brand called minimo
Me: wants to relax on my bed
My Mom: Calls me
Me: 3:36
you got every thing to make.
so good you are bro
O cara é bom mesmo. Excelente trabalho.
Amazing 👌
Вери гуд 👏👏👏💯👍
One quick question: what was the purpose of changing rotation direction at 1:28?
Frederico Chaves i guess to achieve a smoother surface!
The tool usually is cutting before the center of the part, there i cut it behind the center
It was so that he could use the side of the platter to chamfer the end instead of turning the compound rest at that angle and use the tip of the platter. Definitely faster than having to reallign the compound rest (wich can be quite a pain in the neck) afterwards. He's a clever one. :)
I still don't understand. Plain English please???
@@Farooq_Bhai_
Plain English: For convenience.
Good work
Thanks
Very neat.
Love it
Thanks David :-)
2:12 Old bedsheet? Looks newer than a new 😂
Muy bien! Ya solo me falta el torno 😜
Auf jeden Fall besser als der Mist vom Baumarkt...
Tatsache ;-)
The idea is great.... wondering on why so many effort by using sophisticated machine...to create just the rod.
Very. Good. Man
Yes!!!!Thank you!!
Nice 👍👍
I watched the lamp restoration video before this one and was wondering where you got that wheel.
Of course, you make new one.
Got it. I just need a Lathe to make one of those.
which brand of "dremel tool" do u use? i like the locking mechanism
A brand called Minimo someone said
@@FranklinVardetta oh też its, minimo Japan brand, thank you do much
You are my technical icon. I wish you to take up bike engines and restore. Since engines are having much more mechanism including paint removing process and final paint finishing process.
That would be a 2h video haha
@@mymechanicsinsights We (now) have time! Haha
@@Oo-IIII-oO but it would take me 2 years to make the video 🤣
@@mymechanicsinsights I am ready to watch your video even if it is 4 hrs.
beautiful work my friend عمل ممتاز صديقي
Great video as always. I wonder what do you do with all the scrap? I think that the waste managment at you shop would be a good video in this channel
@my mechanics insights I have discovered your channel very recently, and I instantly loved it. Thank you for this - and really great work - such an enjoyment to watch!! You will soon get the Diamond TH-cam button, I have no doubt. Can you also show your sandblasting machine maybe :)?
good!!
How about showing us how to make one without a lathe etc. Perhaps a little bigger for an ordinary drill. Kind regards. Love your vids.
What's your background? How did you learn all these skills?
I'm a professional CNC-machinist
Just came across this, nice video. For those of us without a metal lathe, I would think we could do something similar with a hex or lag bolt, as long as it is balanced.
My cheapo rotary tool came with one and the little pads. This is like planting wheat to make croutons for your salad.
hey there! I just keep watching your videos. Can you make a video about sandblasting? is removing rust before sandblasting gets better results?
No, not at all. Just a waste of time and unnecessary, it's like shaving your beard before going to the barber shop.
@@mymechanicsinsights And still you usually remove rust from everything before sandblasting it?
@@ArniVidar only paint and dirt. That would make the sand unneccessary dirty, which is very expensive.
@@mymechanicsinsights Ah, I understand.
polish it all, polish it, polish it now)))
What is the model of that pen polish machine or tool in your hand ?
I know it will never be the same, but it took me ten minutes to go to a supply store got a bag of small Dremel buffing wheels and I was on my way, Thank's for the video, I just don't have access to NASA'S machine shop!
Perfect!!!
Thanks :-)
So, you machined your own mini buffing tool arbor? You expect me to be impressed? Eh? No...you wanna really impress me, then make your own mini stick of buffing compound! :) Nice job.
Good idea :-)
Shyam Devadas a channel by the name of Wood by Wright has done this, he mixed chromium oxide powder with beeswax in a mold and let it cure into sticks
@@haydenyeap2818 Even as I was writing that, I was wondering if someone had done it. LOL!
Very nice. I assume you could use a nut if you don't have a lathe. Less clamping area in the Dremel Chuck but there is no torque on it so...?
New little Poilishing buff Good job.
What's not to like cheers from OZ.
OMG, I have the exact same X-Acto Knife!
I bet that's where the comparison ends. 😂
