nice job Mr Brand lol....for a guy who has been working in the shop by himself forever with nobody lookin over his shoulder, you sure are good at letting us see the process! Thank you for everything!!
This dude is the real deal!
😂
He’s always sorted your shit out chief LOL
I was going to say it would take years to absorb all the knowledge. Understandable about the bits you don't share. Was starting to question what kinda video this was when he was saying when you tap it. 😁😅 TY for sharing. The tediousness is what is necessary to make sure your giving it your all. Very detail oriented.
I love watching and listening to people give knowledge and you don't have to question it.
Decades of knowledge in 20 minutes. Very cool.
You can always tell a tradesman that's passionate about his work... Gerald's attention to detail is OUTSTANDING! He lets nothing slip by! Great video guy! Keep'em coming!
As a cyl head machinist it nice to see a video of a fellow craftsman doing things the right way great video man.
Sadly these old school shops that are doing things the right way, are becoming a thing of the past.
Was still a few vital steps he missed.
Brings back memories of when I was a kid in my uncle's machine shop. I love this stuff! Watching art being made.
I think this was an absolutely great video! Not boring at all. As stated by others, watching a true craftsman at work is almost mesmerizing! Definently looking forward to future content
Can never see to much of a true craftsman, no matter how simple or difficult. Thanks for sharing
Wow ... memories of working with my Dad back in the 60's in his backyard auto repair shop. Not much has changed ... but a few things did... Aluminum heads, double valve springs, pneumatic spring compressor (we used manual) and cleaning out the sparkplug threads... LOL ... keep the videos coming amigo !!!!
This is the content we've been waiting for. I'd watch you work on any motor. Very educational
Heck Yes!
They Definitely Weren't Fresh!!!
Excellent video Jackie - G. B.!
😎
Love watching your work! I'm in a different line of work, but when someone asks me why I'm so expensive I tell them You're paying for the 40 years of experience and knowledge I have gained to perform the current job at a higher level. Mesmerizing to watch this stuff!
Really love the video and watching the awesome machining work you do. You can tell this man has never cut a corner and is very meticulous. Thank you for sharing and I can't wait until the next video!!
Not many people realize what goes into fixing heads like that. Very nice work.
Sadly the days of getting a pair of heads or even block work are quickly coming to a end. These engines that are in the every day drivers are throw aways. Hell the whole cars are being designed as a 5-7 yr throw away. Just look at the "EcoBoomb" 3.6 that GM put in multiple different vehicles. I swear they used that tiny flimsy timing chain so that when it hit 100-K to 140-K miles it puked. Causing catastrophic failure to the engine. And at that point the car really isn't worth the cost of even fixing the bent valves and often damaged pistons. How GM can over engineer the LS engines. And then make such a TURD on these makes you wonder if it wasn't done by design.
Very well done Sir !!
A+ on the audio and video quality.
Narration was A+ as well.
And it's obvious you are an A+++ skilled machining and detail craftsman,110%
Mr.brand is a dying breed. This world needs more people like Mr. Brand is thorough a perfectionist and knowledgeable. Job well done.
Thanks
It’s awesome to see this type of content. Normally you just drop it off at the machine shop and come back when it’s done. It’s great to see the behind the scene magic.
Are you kidding me, I think what you're doing is awesome.
Old schooling it ! It's what you know and love to do I'm sure.
It's really cool to finally see who you are as we've all heard Chief mentioning your name on more than one occasion.
Chief is really lucky to have someone of your caliber right around the corner from him and I'm pretty sure he feels the same way !
I wouldn't give ur secrets away either. Keep em coming !!👍🏻👍🏻
I always enjoy seeing how you do things,the way you check,repair & set up the workings of an engine. Repairs you have the knowledge & machinery/tooling to make damaged pieces right again interests me. Keep doing what you do,love watching & learning from one of the best!
The videos are not boring. I enjoy watching a craftsman at work.
Your content is beyond informative. I'm sure I speak for all your viewers but learning is not enough. More commentating please. You had my attention from the beginning to end, all the way from the Navajo Nation.
Can't beat a soul who is whole-hearted! Real people, real hearts!
Always interesting to see a man take pride in his work. Tried to instill the idea of pride in my children and think it has served them well.
Videos like these needs to be seen!!! Machinists are miracle workers & don't get enough credit for what they know & do.
Great work Mr.Brand keep them coming.
This is soo enjoyable and informative, thank you!
Great Video !!! Your doing just fine no change needed !!
I can see why Chief takes his motors to you. It's great to watch someone who really cares about the quality of their work. Great job Gerald! Love the pooch too!
Excellent video Gerald. I used a machine shop and the owner held seven NHRA world records in A/Stock and he was the best but he too didn’t tell you certain things.
How Lambeck been doin?
Your videos are NOT boring!!!! I definitely enjoy watching.
It's a real treat to be able to watch a real master machineist at work. You are doing us all a favor sharing what you can. I used to rebuild all my own heads. My father came up with my name when I was born in 1955 while sharpening valve faces on his K.O. Lee valve grinder. I grew up with that machine and used it for a long time until hard times came and forced the sale of that and most of the rest of his machinery.
There's a lot more going on than just grinding valves here. You have relationships with your tools and machines. You obviously love your dog and she loves you back. The parts you're working on are more than just parts, I see they represent the people who need them to you. You easily could have jacked the invoice way up by pressing new guides and seats in. Probably would have increaded your profits. But you didn’t.
People who label people like us (please allow me to include myself in your circle) as blue collar or working class or my personal favorite "works well with his hands" couldnt hang with you doing this or any similar task just thinking through all the steps you have to go through and all the variables that go with each step. People also .ight not realize that there is real danger involved for drivers as well as spectators and track personnel if you get it wrong. Engine explosions are just that. Risk is risk and you have peoples lives in your hands.
My respect is botomless. You and our brotherhood (sisters, I'm not excluding you but I dont know an inclusive term thats as strong as brotherhood. Maybe someone can help me out here) are the foundation of humanity. People who can do things correctly. My term for people who cant do things is Worthless.
Dont raise your children to be worthless. We have too many of them already.
Thanks
Gerald new subscriber. Retired military aircraft mechanic. Your videos are very informative. I’ve worked on a lot of stuff in my career but am definitely enjoying your videos. I’m the person that would rather fix something than buy new. Us older mechanics get great pleasure in solving the problem and bringing it back to fight another. I’m down here on Long Island NY. Thanks for sharing my Siamese cat sits ad watches everything I do without her just Ike your dog. Artie 🇺🇸👍
Gerald, anything that you are willing to share, is VERY MUCH appreciated. Thanks for the education!
Nice to see the comfort/confidence at which you perform the task
I could watch videos like this all day. Just a true craftsman in his element. Keep the content coming please!!
I really enjoy watching someone take pride in their work. Building motors has always been fascinating to me. Looking forward to any videos you decide to post.
Talking to yourself isn't bad but when you argue with yourself it's hard to decide a winner 😂😂 great video
Great video Gerald! Love the instructional videos! Not boring at all!!!👍👍👍👍
Love watching you work sir. My grandfather was a master machinist. Enjoyed watching him work as well. By the way I go by the second pronunciation Gerald.
I'm an old-school machinist that enjoys watching car videos and you are very entertaining keep up the good work
Hey Gerald love watching your magic on These engines and thank you for everything you have done for my son's new project
Really enjoy your content, enjoy watching craftsman doing their craft. 👍🏼
Love that you have taken the time to let us know the ins and outs. Can’t wait for more of them Keep them coming Mr Brand
Great video with really nice audio sharing your experience as a craftsman! Love watching you work! Love that you have a little furry friend to keep you company!
As long as the check clears call him what ya want 😂
Gerald,
I really enjoyed the video. I think it was informative and interesting. You kept our attention throughout the whole process.
You’re a natural! Great job!
Thanks
Mark
Love the videos!! I'm glad to see you putting these out.
I absolutely LOVE the videos. I tear engines and transmissions from European vehicles down all day everyday that we sell for parts. Usually 1 to 1.5 a day and I absolutely love these videos.
I enjoy the peek behind the curtain, seeing how the sausage is made.
Hella Cool Stuff. I'm dad was a Metallurgist an Machinist. He ran a Big boy 5axis , that made Wings an Landing gear for Boeing, an NASA. So All machining video's, Talking or Not, I feel right at home Watching 🙏🙌👏👏💪💯🏆🇺🇸
Well done!! Thanks for sharing. It's refreshing to see a true craftsman who takes the time needed to do the job right at work in today's ADD society
Great videos. As a car guy who has built a few engines, I really enjoy your videos and content. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience! It can't be easy for a one man operation. I am impressed how you roll with mismatched pistons and valves for a guy that can afford to buy a new motor.
absolute great tech video & commenting - love your oldshool yet simple approach to this head job - i really enjoyed it - please do produce more content - hats off to you
Hey Gerald, thanks for the sick video. Will definitely show this vid to the guys at Blouch Performance Turbo tomorrow. We love watching stuff like this!
You are doing a fabulous job. Lot’s of skill on your end. Thank you for sharing ❤
That's a pretty sweet tool you made for tapping holes. After watching your videos and your attention to detail it makes me wonder if my engine guy is as meticulous as you are.
Thanks for sharing. I love to learn new things and how they work. Your breakdown of each process as you were working was great.
As a 35+ year Tool Maker I totally agree with not sharing all the tricks you have learned over the years. Some of them have come the hard way, and not for everyone to know.That said I always love to see a Master at work.
Well Done, Mr. Gerald!!!
Awesome I enjoyed watching the process. Definitely shows your experience. Can’t wait to see more.
thank you for sharing as much as you did -- Such an incredible job !! even if it only took 8 hours, it is billed as 40 Years and 8 hours .
Love what you do! Don’t have to explain everything. I thought you did outstanding! Ronnie, East Tennessee
Great video! Thanks for putting it out for everyone to see the skill/ knowledge you have and I'm a person that understands your not going to show everything. I'm glad to watch what you do show.
DAMN Gerald, you my friend are a FREAKING ARTIST!!! thanks for sharing with us!!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Please be as detail as you feel comfortable being anything we can learn is very much appreciate it. The work that you’re doing is tedious, but it is never boring. I am very much interested in learning as many processes as you will allow us to observe and learn, thank you again.
Great job..nothing beats experience! Would have liked to see how the valves and seats were ground. I 👍 👍 👍 keep em commin!
Love the videos! Please, keep it up
Love the work G, brings me back, I remember the day we got the CV616 and Serdi(I can hear it now)…wow that was like 2000/01. Miss the machine shop and the detail. BTW the dog is a great sign you keep your shop tidy, you can see it too from the limited views. A clean shop says A LOT!! Keep up the great work! Chief is lucky to have someone like you as a go to, the little details make all the difference. I’ll be watching for sure. 👍🏽
my Rott i had in 06 he was 10yrs loved the bottles .. label lid ring chews it for day or 2 ... i love the videos dont see much of this old school work and tricks they like to share you have leaned thought the yrs keep it coming
I’m a fan! You know when your gut tells ya someone’s a good person? Ranking right there with Justin and Jackie my friend.
thank you Rick
I like the details its very important when building an engine.
Happy to know how to properly pronounce your name Mr Gerald. I would just like to say that I love these types of videos. I am by no means a race car driver or machinist but absolutely love learning and knowing the work that goes into these builds. For your first couple videos you have done such an incredible job and the content with your pooch added a nice human side of you. I will continue to look forward to you videos and content. I pray that you have all the success this crazy world has to offer!! Chief and Jackie are awesome people and Chief specifically was my first real star of the “tv” sports that I really took a liking to. I don’t get caught up in all the drama that goes along with the tv show and stay true as the fan I am. Best of luck to you and your pup! Can’t wait for your next video.
Gerald that was a neat tool for the tap both of them you share what knowledge you want very interesting
You got my subscription. I been working in a shop by myself for years talking to myself. I look at it as sometimes I need professional advice😂
Anything you’d be willing to talk about while you’re working on stuff I’d love to hear. I really liked this video and the last one so I’ll be looking forward to seeing more from you.
It's nice to know that your name is Gerald and not Gerald. Thanks for the video Mr. Brand.
I enjoy watching the machine work. Your videos are a great learning tool. Thank you sir for your time and effort.
You just can't beat working by yourself, that's when I get stuff done.
You are doing just fine, keep it up. I build my own engines, so watching the machine work I always learn something new. 👍👍👍👍
Enjoyed watching your informative video keep up the great work
Just found your channel Sir and subscribed. I thoroughly enjoyed your reworking these heads and love how you take care of your dog says a lot about you.
Mr. Brand you are spot on. I am enjoying your videos very much and appreciate them.
Full sending never lifting 😏 🤙 mobbin deep 🙌 knowledge is power 👏 ty for the therapeutic video from life love the vibes
God dam*ed hyrogliphics. Am i supposed to kick a field goal or steal 3rd?
Not boring at all! Great video
Very nice to see a craftsman in this world if I want it now thank you
Gerald thank you for putting this out there man
The commentary is perfect. Keep doing what you’re doing!
Great job Sir! I enjoy the commentary and watching the process. Keep your secrets close, you worked hard to come up with them. But please, pass it along to at least one person, as to not let this knowledge fade away! Thanks for your time and effort
Nice Job Gerald!! Like the care and consistency you put in those heads!
I have a winfield fixture that I use on my head resurfacing machine. Best money I spent. Good content
Gerald your the man
I miss working in a machine shop. Love it
Boy's I'll just tell ya, that dog has him trained good.
Sub'd !! 60% for content, 40% for Jackie's post skillz !
Was very good to see a valve job done correct. done some myself as I learned in high school automotive class by a good teacher. I am sure I did not do the quality work you do but never had any problems with the ones I did through the years especially when I learned the correct way to finish lapping them.
You a master of the trade no unnecessary expensive Machines Regards from Cape Town
That is a ton of work and awesome you do it as if it was yours. I hope you teach someone someday to help you or run a business. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽 😊 😀 🙂 🙏
Not at all boring Mr. Brand. Really cool/good info. and details..
Definately not boring. Well explained what you do and why.👍.
Great video Gerald! Looking forward to more of them. Love the quality of your work.
