Hey I just wanted to say thanks, you got me started into a career of actually tig welding. I’m 21 but at the beginning of Covid I bought a tig welder and wanted to start doing some hobby work but I couldn’t figure out how to do anything, But I had been watching your videos and you got me to the place that in level c welding when we did tig I was so good that my teacher recommended me to a brewery making place. Stainless steel sanitary tig welding and this is all possible because of your videos. Thanks this old tony!
Don't weld the inner stock to the outer stock on in the base! Let the internal tube slide up and down inside the outer square stock and drill holes into it on either side. Align those hole with several matching ones at different height increments along the length of the outer square stock. Instant multiple range selection!
I started watching This Old Tony about 5 years ago or so in high school. I’m currently getting a degree in Machine Tool Technology and recently got a job running a CNC lathe. Getting Americans interested in manufacturing is a good thing, and This Old Tony is doing his part with that. Thank you for the content. It’s more than just entertainment.
As an engineer, I’d like to point out that per ANSI standard, any drawing with a lemon yellow sun, grass, and fluffy green tree requires a minimum of one (1) stick figure to indicate scale. I also want to point out that your first name was not in the upper RH corner along with the correct prefix “By”.
They do exist already, just not marketed to the engineering industry. Look up farriers’ horseshoe vices and you’ll find an entire array of them at different price points and levels of complexity. Some remain parallel, some don’t. But there’s so many to choose from I’m sure you’d find something that works.
The fixed jaw that you offset was in the wrong direction for gaining clearance, the offset you added actually reduced the amount of jaw opening capacity. That could be close to your 1/4" that you lost. Need to move the lower jaw down to have the clamping face as flush to the end of the tube as you can be while the floating jaw is at its max extent.
Easy for me to criticise, sitting here with the benefit of hindsight, but Shirley, any fool would have made a welding vice first. (a simple device with sloping clampable jaws)
Mr. Tony, To get at the "C" clips simply drill some large holes through the square pipe to allow you to de-clip the bolt. You can then get a slightly longer bolt to use so that you can put an axe head in the new vice! Great welds and super nice design!!
Being a machinist for over 20 years now and never heard of this "restocking" technique. Could you make a deatiled video about it? Can it also be done on the milling machine?

Can't believe that old Tony disorganized his pristine scrap collection just for cinematic effect, what an artist!
i'd like to speak with you about your attendance. it seems you have missed class for the last 147 days... did you bring a doctor's note?
HEY EVERYONE, TONYS BACK!

I figured it out, the camera shots are always close so you can't see the hundreds of Tony's from other times.
it’s hard to articulate the unmitigated confusion i felt watching the first 2 minutes at 2x speed after 2 beers …
it took me an embarassingly long time to realize the joke.

I love that you restocked that piece at the start of the video, just to later cut it out again exactly as it was. Amazing, peak comedy

So happy to see you are alive and kicking! We live for your content and your humour!
Oh how I've missed This Old Tony! Genius idea to restock! Unlimited opportunity to avoid higher costs of materials!

an often overlooked aspect of getting a good finish with de-roughing tools is using heatant.
