- The next new machine has made into the new shop space. I took delivery of my KBC Tools & Machinery TUM-40VS manual milling machine. www.kbctools.c...
This is a 5HP mill equipped with a 10x50 table, power feed on x axis, 40 taper spindle and Newall digital readout. It will serve as the main go-to manual mill for the new shop and I look forward to having a more heavy duty machine with a larger milling and workpiece capacity.
During the time of this machine delivery, many suppliers have a shortage of machinery. KBC has several machines in stock ready to ship.

2 BRAND NEW MACHINES! I AM JEALOUS! I retired and found an Acer 3 VK Knee mill and a Precision Mathews 12x 36 Lathe. Both used BUT well cared for. My stuff will strictly be personal projects and friends and family stuff. Great to watch a guy that knows exactly what he wants go out and get it. Keep it up Adam!
Best of luck at the new location. I’d love to see you take on an apprentice and pass your knowledge down to the next generation. My dad was a machinist and I curse myself for not paying more attention to him and his craft
While he definitely could do that, I think him constantly uploading TH-cam videos with him sharing his knowledge to thousands of people is a much better way for him to share his wisdom. I know I've learned a lot from it.
Shoot, I'd apply to be the apprentice
We have a rule for our overhead doors; "all the way open or all the way closed."
If we want a door partially open for air or light a sawhorse is placed.
We learned about this rule the hard way of course!
I love the smile on this mans face, when a new machine shows up.
In my workshop, I built my shelves from 100% used lumber, and they're holding up well.
Congratulations on another new machine Adam. Uneventful is Exactly how you want any machine moving experience to be!

I used to live 5 minutes from KBC, now about 25 minutes. I love walking through the machinery showroom mouth agape and dreaming. I get all my tooling and expendables from them. Great place with good prices.
The respect he has for his machinery in my opinion shows that you're going to get a quality product from him.
Best part of the video is your smile on the end. God Bless you Adam.
I bought a forklift that you just walk behind. Similar to a pallet truck, but it lifts up to 160cm. Its the best thing I ever bought for the workshop!
Wow, youtube really pays well! I'm very happy for you.
I think your Father and Grandfather are looking down from Heaven, filled with joy for the good use you are making of the skills and passion they lovingly taught you . Way to go Adam.
I'm glad to see the business runs strong for you Adam. You and Abby look really happy, that's awsome.
Nice, comes with bonus $1,000 in 2x4s.
🤣🤣🤣
The pallet is the same value as the DRO.
I looked at KBC's catalog for that mill. Priced at $35K before shipping and tax. Wonderful item to behold Adam. Can't wait to see it making chips. YES, save those 2x4s. Their worth their weight in gold : ).
I see it listed as about $14K. Not sure what you saw.
The link he posted was ~$14k.
Definitely save all those 2x4's a year ago that pile was $100.00 worth of lumber. Congratulations on the new KBC, 5hp is a nice size. And the Cat 40 spindle says we aren't fooling around. The new shop is coming along very nicely.
More than that
In a machine shop always install four gang boxes everywhere. You'll be glad you did in the future. Never heard a machinist say "I have too many outlets."
I'd be afraid with a new shop and new machines like that I may have died and gone to heaven. Count your blessings.
Glad to hear all those nice 2X4's are going to be reused. Congrats on the new equipment. New shop is really coming along.
So great to see Abbey is so supportive of your work.
Great thing that you try to safe the lumber for any future crates for your own jobs .
Don’t waste any materials of any matter.
All cost money , and a little at it times adds up .
"...with the manual machines..." Nice foreshadowing of things to come! new shop is shaping up nice, congrats. can't wait to see whats next
Yep, still holding to my theory the tape on the floor across from the Pacemaker is for a CNC.
Rule 1 of Roller Doors:
They are either all the way up, or all the way down. Nowhere in between.
LOL
I held my breath for a second as he drove that forklift into the building. I have a rule that doors are either 100% open or 100% closed (or maybe just cracked for airflow). I've seen too many partly open doors hit by things on forklifts.
So you've been to my work and seen ours? Lol. The Staples delivery guy smashed ours on nice Friday. I'm like thanks bud for the extra paperwork today.
Abby and Adam (030). Abby loves Adam, his machinist quirks, and his machines. I so enjoy seeing Abby's enthusiasm. It makes me just feel good to see this.
I don't know who more excided about this me or Adam. I an old man now and really happy to se a young man coming up it the world.
Good call on the Lumber. Lumber is at a premium to right now. That pallet has got some very good Lumber in it too. I like the way they got chip covers right from the factory. Way guard. Beautiful machine.
you got the big brother of my KBC mill. Mine is the 3hp with the R8 collet spindle. Congrats! I put a 6 inch extension on it since i'm 6'3" . it's easier on my back to run plus i got 6 inch more clearance between the table and spindle.
These mills never cease to remind me of photo enlargers, those used to print from negatives. I wish my enlargers were as precise as this mill!
Man, that crating job was great 👍! And your demo was AWESOME ! Thank you
You will love that Newall DRO. I used one at Kellogg before my retirement, it made using a mill real easy.
He already knows. Did you listen to the video?
I really like the fact you’re embracing new machines! Looking forward to what you can create with them! I’ve watched you for a few years and have enjoyed you fixing up old machines and it’s now a really cool balance. Onwards and upwards!
Love the new video series. Looking forward to seeing chips from the new tools. You are a national treasure! I hope google is treating you right!
Two thumbs up for our modern industrialized society! BTW, that's the nicest pallet wood I've ever seen.
Good looking machine. Going to be a different experience using stuff that hasn’t had years of wear. So excited you are getting to do this and put together that awesome shop! I am getting so slammed with work I may have to quit doing videos.
The new shop is coming along great. Love the equipment you have already there.
You and Abby are so good together.
Love watching your shows.
I am so happy for you two. You are making steady progress.
Oh, man. Am I ever envious. Congratulations, Adam.
I had a flash back to a Brian Bloc moment. But you gently rested it in place. Stressful for all of us.
LOL !!! Abby doesn't drop test stuff :)
For knocking apart timber structures like the crate around the milling machine, a rubber mallet (2 pound or more) is a much better tool than a steel hammer, especially if you want to reclaim the timber. With a steel hammer, energy is wasted in just damaging and bruising the timber. Whereas, with the large compliant face of the rubber mallet, it doesn’t bruise the timber and pretty much all the energy goes into separating the joints. With a steel hammer, you have to hit the timber more times to get the same result and each blow causes further damage to the timber. Cheers
Good to know
It's cool to see some modern machines getting some love. There's nothing wrong with vintage lathes and milling machines, but at some point, the cost to maintain them becomes prohibitive.
Forklift drivers are truly unsung heroes. I've worked with the union guys at Mascone Center in SF and they could move millions of dollars of electrical equipment and place them down so accurately you'd need a micron tool to measure how far off they were. And they handled that equipment like it was made of feathers. Truly amazing as to what forklift drivers can do.
Congratulations on the new equipment, Adam. I can tell you're excited to use it and happy to finally have new machines that haven't been run by anybody. And it's pretty cool seeing how excited Abbey is for you. I can't wait to see the first chips come off both machines!
I really enjoy watching the new shop taking shape and coming to life.
Now the little stuff is out of the way time to land a VTL and HBM. Lances K & T is a beast too but for repair work the VTL & HBM will be the most versatile pieces of equipment you can get for your size shop.
Congratulations on the mill. Looks nice. Can't wait to see all this equipment making some chips.
Congratulations! These are big steps taken in rapid succession!
Congrats, looks like you've planned an efficient workspace for those new machines. Can't wait to see them in action.
0:15 I love the big-kid-on-Xmas-day grin.
Throughout my career as a University academic (UK) I was the same - looking forward to new deliveries. But there is nothing worse than seeing somebody else get a delivery, and you are just waiting for them to open in, and the bastard just leaves the package in full view all day, then opens it after you have gone to the pub.
It must be extremely rewarding having this YT channel.
This is awesome! Your new machine days feel like Christmas to me! Can't wait to see the first chips!
It's always nice getting new equipment!!!
Love seeing the new machines! I love all the old machines but as someone who eventually wants to get into some hobby machining seeing the new machines helps me plan out what I want. Obviously not to the same extent as this but it helps! Great video!!
I too would like to know the purpose behind all of this. Are you building a machine shop business like your dad's, a playground, or a TH-cam video studio? Any of the above answers would be fine as it's your money and your life. I, and I'm sure many others, am curious to know.
So happy for you guys! My god do you hold yourself to such a high standard. I’ve noticed you spend so much time explaining yourself and over justify everything you do. I just wanted to remind you that we all follow you because we think you’re spectacular!! Try to focus a tiny bit less on what someone might say about why your doing something and just do it. Let your expertise lead you. Look at aVe’s videos. You’re so awesome and I think you deserve better than explaining yourself constantly. Just do and share why.
Just get a cnc and get with the times.
@@tomkeating65 Adam is a machinist, not a button pusher.
kool machine, lol, they had 400 worth of 2x4s on the crate, hope they didnt add that to the shipping charges, good luck with the new toy
Time to enjoy the spoils of your labor. New is always nice.
We'll have to call this the Candy Shop, since working here will be like a kid in one! 🍬🍬
Love the appreciation you show for your new acquisitions! And a big thumbs up to the new crane operator!!! Fantastic content. Looking forward to the the when the chips are a flying.
great job Adom, good luck-----------thanks for the vid, and you got a cute crane operator.
Pulling the sticker off the KBC badge was the best part 😄 🤣 I'm a carpenter but I have always said that if I could jump trades it would be to become a machinist.
Best wishes for many healthy and productive years with your new mill!
Like Adam said, a great shipping crate. My uncle worked for a pallet company as a custom pallet builder and I think he would have liked this one.
Congrats with the new machine!
Abbey really loves to help. So great to see. Lovely couple.
Man I cant wait to see the new shop on the land you purchased. Dad and Grandad have to be smiling from ear to ear!!!
Cheers to BMS 4.0!? I think….
But where's the next generation ?
Nice!
Great idea putting electric on the back of the mill.
Have the electrician put a pair of 4-gang boxes on the mill. That way you’ll have a place for any lights or other accessories or just to plug something in, in the middle of the work space. Maybe even throw a 220 back there while you’re at it.
Heck, you might even want to add flood to it some day. Who knows?
I'm with you." I have too many outlets" is something you will never hear in real life.
Loving being part of your journey with the new shop
Love new machine day! Hope KBC gave you a good deal. You’ve been promoting KBC for years. Peace.
I am happy for you! It is a very nice machine. Good to see you smiling!
Awesome, been looking forward to this since you been showing stuff on Instagram, many thanks abom
Good for you, Adam! New tool day is always fun. Hopefully in a few years when I retire, I can get some of the old machines that 'Old' machinists like you are done with.
Good luck with the new machine
Adam’s got the same recip saw I’ve got. Maybe newer, but other than the finish, it’s exactly the same, and I bought mine when we bought our house 38 years ago!. A good design is classic, and mine, after a lot of use including cutting 12” thick tree limbs, is perfectly good other than the boot looking a bit ragged.
Good job Abby!
So happy for you Adam and what an awesome new machine,CAN'T wait to see it working🤩....You are the man with a BIG SMILE😁👀
Thank's very much...👍👍
When it comes to toys, machinists always win!
So cool to have a brand new machine.
Hello Adam. I don’t understand! You will shortly have two workshops, but you don’t do any of the wonderful machining that you used to do. Please would you explain your reasons? Thanks
Since he went U-TUBE full time his content has gone to sh-t. To bad because he used to be an interesting watch.
@@mross6363 yes I absolutely agree with you. So why the second (obviously expensive) workshop?
@@drewmog123456 Patreon contributions ?.
@@mross6363 Totally agree.
You need an Air Locker AP700 Punch nail remover for those nails in the boards. I don’t how I didn’t know about this unique tool. It is a must have for removing nails out of wood.
congrats Adam, this is awesome. Very happy for you, I would love a mill but I only have a garage with low power haha. Hard work and dedication pay off. Well deserved, sir!
Congratulations on the new mill Adam. 👍
Moves like a Bridgeport, but with 2.5 X the Hp and a real spindle taper! Not bad!
Congrats on the new machine!
Sounds like some cnc’s are in the works
True friends see each other in an hour of need
Congratulations on new machine bud
Thanks for sharing! Sweet machines
The adventure comming up to speed! Best of luck. Keep Amy, she is better than a prize.
Who?
Its abby lol
I started crying when he cut the first board lol.
Definitely get a Align drive for the Knee, best purchase for my mill I ever bought use it continually.
Optional extras for toys !
Congratz! Nice & shiny machine you got yourself there!
I'm going to say I would like to see some more videos of this machine. I'm a novice machinist and I don't have access to a lot of equipment, but my work has a smaller version of this one and I would appreciate an experienced machinist like yourself to do some detailed videos on the capabilities of it. What are its major limitations?
Congratulations on the new mill Adam. I have a similar 40 taper 5hp mill from Manford and I love it.
It's great seeing another new machine. Can't wait to see you make some chips in the new shop.
I'm green with envy , congratulations on your new shop .
Good looking machine. I have a KBC Grip 12x24 lathe that was probably made in the 70's or 80's in Taiwan. I replaced the motor recently but the gear train has all it's teeth and works like a champ.
I also have a Bridgeport mill and without a doubt the two best additions to that machine are rhe power drawbar and power feed on the Z axis. Personally I wouldn't spend the money for a power feed on the Y axis due to the short travel distance but you know your needs better than I do so...
I know you will enjoy it for many years.
"You can rotate that thing?", took the words right out of my mouth.
Very nice shop. Did you hit the Lottery with all that new stuff.
half million subs, merch, sponsors, plus the hourly rate for machine work.
Manual machines…. I guess that implies CnCs are coming. Both are cool.
KBC should make that a promo sale-"$500 free framing lumber with Milling machine purchase" lol
They should pack it in 1/2 inch OSB and it would be a real deal!
Hey, that lumber paid for itself many times over by protecting the new machine. Compared to the mill it’s pennies.
@@jmpattillo Tiny Home Build!
There was a 6' 2x4 on the road today and I almost stopped to pick it up...
Congrats on your new Mill. I would love to come down there and see your shop someday!
